Yes, Hawaii's green pastures still keep the state highlighted as a high intensity drug trafficking area. Meaning, DEA grant money still will fund the choppers. Don't get so mad at the county because these are Federales...DEA....who in all reality, don't have any allegiance to peaceful skies, medicinal programs, or lowest priority for that matter. The first priority is spending the grant money. Federal grants are hard to say no to. And now, Former Maui Chief is hired to run the show. Though not nearly as wacko as the past county green harvest programs, be assured that the bi-annual flyovers will continue in Puna, Ocean View, and South Kona.
