I know you're not really serious but growing up on a farm we used electric fences a lot. They are great to control animals. The shock is not lethal just very, very unpleasant and the idea is to train the animals to stay away from the fence. They did not work if animals stampeded because they would be through the fence before they felt it.
People are not deterred. It is easy to go under or over an electric fence or to cut it for that matter. You just have to prevent grounding yourself. Insulated gloves will work.
In Hawaii you would have the additional problem of plants grounding the wire. We had to walk our fences periodically and brushout any undergrowth. if it touched the fence, the the fence would not work.
I personally would like a laser beam zapper or phasar like in star trek. But I think those are hard to come by
