Considering that 6 or 7 million people visit the islands each year, violence against visitors is incredibly low. You're just not going to get beat up or shot unless you're doing something stupid (like putting a move on a braddah's girl) or going places you ought not be and get unlucky. Having your stuff stolen out of your rental car - that's another story.

I see Japanese tourist girls (there's always two together) in some of the sketchiest areas of Honolulu, waiting for the bus, and nobody bothers them.

Christiki - if you literally think a pickup truck full of Hawaiians was pulled over and not allowed into Waikiki, I don't know what to say to you. That's just nonsense. Go to Queen's Beach or Kaimana Beach - right by the aquarium. You'll see locals of all types with their families having a wonderful time.
