Jason Momoa telling tourists the Maui island is closed is irresponsible

Some tourists have been encouraged to cancel their planned trips to Maui after fires devastated parts of the island, but one food truck owner said telling tourists to stay away could do more harm than good. Jason Momoa, an actor and Native Hawaiian, was among those urging tourists to stay away from the island. But Daniel Kalahiki, owner of the food truck Like Poke, posted a series of Instagram videos saying those messages were misguided.
