The military basically owns Hawaii. Oahu has so many bases, and secret areas it is easy to figure out how Spam Musubi was created. Then you have the hippies who moved there because of all the crazy stories told by marketing teams. They are common with people with 5 dads, 3 moms, and unknown amounts of brothers and sisters. These two are constantly at each other's throats. Sometimes they even get married. This is pretty standard stuff.
The locals deal with them, even sing songs based on them. Look up Don Ho for my favorites like Who is the Lolo Who Stole My Pacalolo. My biggest problem with any of it is the demand that locals be poor to keep with the standards kept by the military and marketing people. This is why the state is one giant welfare state. You can't have a good job outside of tourism or the military. A tech company like SEGA could start there, but not stay there, which it did. Seriously look it up, they used to be called Service Games. The Tetris company is still there. It's hard to have nice things because tourist places have to be really nice, and local places have to be really poor.
Does the military have weapons like that in Hawaii? Probably. Would they use it to start a fire in a poor neighborhood where the crazy lolos at? I bet they wish they could. Did it? Nah, but I wouldn't put it past all kine to do stuff.
