Like it or not, Gypsy is both morally and legally wrong on several counts. Let's be real here, his points are not very well stated, either. Learn from your own ignorance and glean perspective. By the way, I've read about the legal situation in more "wild west" type areas that have some similarities to Hawai'i where the law is not as strictly enforced for smaller cases.
In places like the rural south on the mainland, it's completely acceptable to just pull a gun and shoot a dog that's snarling, unleashed, and running in your direction. The reason why is rabies control, it's a thing, and it's not worth risking your life over a dog. Given that it is entirely acceptable to slay a dog that is clearly moving to attack you in these "less-enforced" settings, mace is actually a pretty friendly option.
