On Cummins Street. I think it's the old location of Club Sun.

You can't be serious. There is no good reason to swipe an I'd with all sorts of identifying information that could come back to bite. You mean to tell me some club in Waipahu of all places has secure data storage? If they don't keep the data then how will they know to 86 a guy six months from now? This makes no sense what so ever. With all the sex victim crazies running around it's simply not worth the risk of having your info stored at a strip club of all places. All it takes is one savvy hacker to steal it and all hell will break loose.

Both guys involved were not inside the club, they just happened to be walking on same side of the street when the incident occurred. This incident has not prevented me from going, as I know this is probably the safest strip club on the island. Either them or 939, but Blossom is closer and more fun.
As far as the I'd check thing, it was instituted a week before the shooting. It mainly serves as a deterrent to keep the troublemakers out. If for some reason there is a incident inside the club it makes it more easy to 86 the instigator and keep him from returning. Normal people don't have to worry about the checker, Blossom doesn't keep the data or distribute it (first thing I asked). I think other clubs should start doing it, too because it just adds more protection to the guys just trying to have a good time.
Good points and insights, thanks. Agreed, it is a fun club and I have always felt safe. These new security measures should help keep the peace. The surrounding neighborhood does seem a bit suspect, but Blossom has a parking lot. I will also continue to go to Blossom.
Aloha,
CS.

When you say "scan the driver license prior to entry," do you mean scan with a device? I haven't been there in a long time but I do remember security asking for I'd and just looking at it for a few seconds. If they're actually using a machine now, then maybe yes if the shooting occurred inside the club and there was evidence that you both were there. But like another monger said, I too heard it wasn't in the club, it happened outside with some homeless people.

Sorry fellas, meant "Cherry Blossom". We call the place "Club Smokestack", forget the real name.

I grew here. More than double that amount. Same here. Like I tell my friends, sooner or later, some lolo going try imitate the mainland, and. Going be one sad day in Hawaii Ne. I just hope its not a school.
I was talking with braddah KB, and not to be racist; [Deleted by Admin]. How the mainland can come here and survive on Oahu is amazing. 1. 2 million and counting?
Pray no more gun violence. I had fam who was in HPD. He used to tell us all the time never in his career he had to unholster his weapon. (I remember him having a shotgun in his 88 black Monte Carlo tho, super cool.).
I blame all this "call of duty" video games for influencing the millenial generation. I mean we did stupid shit back in our day, but the stuff I see on social media, these lolos get some balls. Big balls.
I'm going to tell you a little secret, every single time you type "not to sound racist" it means you're about to throw down some seriously racist shit. It's the same no matter what the X is in "not to sound X."
I con't consider myself an expert in Hawaiian Patois but I googled it and in context it's looking about as bad as any other derogatory words for black guys. It could be that I'm wrong about that but essentially you said you think there is more gun violence because there are more black guys. And you used a word that Urban Dictionary defines as;
Popolo
Hawaiian slang for African.
Eats: fried chicken, watermelons Activities: makes cornbread, picks cotton, raps or dances, has oily heads, purple skin, popolo babies become more criminals on our streets.
I'm thinking nobody should use that word going forward.
