      Okay, so let’s put it this way. If the federal govt decided that people could take dumps in Your grandparents garage without asking, you would protest right? And if they said “well, your grandparents don’t live in The house so it shouldn’t be a problem”- it’d be a problem right? And then someone posts the article on here and someone types out a defense “yeah but it’s a garage, its uninhabitable” and then later “WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS SHITTY LITTLE ISLAND?” …. You’re getting this right?

        Cool. Who’s garage do we shit in then?

        Because if we’re going to shit in a garage we need a garage to shit in. So is that garage in South Texas or out in The Pacific?

        basically, no one has stated why this place is not a good place but the Gulf of Mexico is what we’re using now so… just keep using it?

          The Gulf of Mexico is also a bad place, but unfortunately it wasn’t a marine monument and the residents there didn’t fight to protect it. We in Hawaii care about this island because it’s our responsibility and all of our islands are interconnected. You don’t seem to know shit about the area or that scientists don’t view SpaceX’s reckless R&D as an unabashed good and then go up on your soapbox to act like you in your ignorance are the only rational mind.

            You are the first person to articulate WHY you don’t want it there, no one else has bothered.

            What’s the deal with this patch of ocean? Is it special in some other way than NIMBY cloaked in religion?
