It isn't just a CCW you cant get in Hawaii, try pretty much any means of defending one self without a baseball bat, stick, rock or fist.
Tasers, Stunguns, and certain pepper sprays are also a no no in this goofy state, unless of course you are a cop or criminal.
In Hawaii you must be a Cop, fighting expert, or criminal to defend yourself. If you are none of the above and you end up in a situation with someone that does not care if they do you harm then you may end up as part of this.

365 people were raped last year in Hawaii, with no way to defend themselves. I would assume the bulk of the stun guns and tasers carried in the US are carried by women to defend themselves from crime. Unless you happen to be a police officer or breaking the law you cant even own a stun gun here.
Many things in the US kill people.
Poor eating habits kill many more people every year than guns, stun guns, tasers etc, Maybe the Gov should get involved in our eating Habits.
I bet legal drugs kill more people every year than guns, stun guns, tasers etc.
Our highways kill more people than any of the above and it seems our local Gov is helpless to stop it.
What would you or your loved ones do if confronted with a violent attacker? Call the police? By the time they get there the criminal will probably have already finished what ever they were going to do and have the time to drive home.
I understand the idea that you will not always be in range of a chosen item to defend yourself but in many cases you will be and at least you had the right.
