I think the issue will suss itself out at the ballot box. Most residents favor gun control here, and elect sympathetic representatives.

For you enjoyment; Everybody run! The Homecoming Queen's got a gun!

Progress Hawaiian Style:

1. Endemic meth abuse? Check!
2. Concealed carry on the horizon? Check!
3. Florida style Stand Your Ground Law? Not yet - but that would make a perfect trifecta and make Darwin smile.

I don't consider myself a legal expert, I just doubt that I can go pick up my conceal-carry paper down at the Hilo police station today.
The article in Friday's paper tells me that there is still a long way to go. Your fantasies aren't necessarily realities.

Well Paul first you'll need to go ask for the application paper work, which by the way, is available right now. Whether or not you'll be granted the permit is another story. Go give it a try... I myself am opting to wait a wee bit longer. But you're welcome to have at it today, hurry, you've perhaps only another 40 minutes or so before the clerk splits for the weekend. Good Luck.

I highly doubt the honolulu police chief will approve that. It's still up to him regardless what the courts think.

We have been through this several times over the years. I will not allow rants or various positions on guns on Punaweb unless there is a direct tie in to Puna or Hawaii.

So pay attention or this topic will become locked.

Assume the best and ask questions.
