This makes me sick to my stomach.
How are we supposed to protect ourselves from this kind of scum.

Maybe this the result of Green Harvest's "War on Drugs" which drove the price of a harmless marijuana 'high' beyond the price of a meth 'high' and of now meth addicts becoming more and more insane after years of use.
And consequently, maybe some of those meth addicts have acquired guns in previous burglaries and are now getting more reckless in their desperation to keep feeding their addiction.
Or maybe this was the 'merely' the doing of plain criminal people who make their living this way.

Whatever it was, hopefully this is not the start of new epidemic of "too many guns in the wrong hands". Oh well, tell that the NRA.

So what now? Buy a shotgun?

I agree.
"War on drugs" is insane and corrupt.

Check the laws -- we're not.

"War on drugs" is insane and corrupt.

"It's not a war on drugs, it's a war on personal freedoms. Keep that in mind at all times."

Media Release
Hawai#699;i Island police are looking for three unknown persons in connection with an armed robbery in Puna Monday (July 20) followed by the discharge of a firearm about three hours later.
In response to a 4:55 p.m. call Monday, Puna Patrol officers met with a 29-year-old Mountain View man, who reported that he had just exited his driveway in a pickup truck and pulled to the side of the road when a small sedan pulled up behind him. Three suspects exited the sedan with their faces obscured and ordered the victim to surrender his truck at gunpoint. The suspects then fled the area in both vehicles.
Just after 8 p.m., the truck was recovered at the intersection of Pôhaku Drive and 37th Avenue in the Orchidland subdivision. Police learned that an acquaintance of the victim had located the truck in the parking lot of a local business and followed it into Orchidland. Once confronted, the driver of the stolen truck fired at least one shot from a firearm, abandoned the truck and fled the area on foot.
Detectives from the Area I Criminal Investigations Section responded to the scene and are continuing the investigation.
Police ask anyone with information about either incident to call the Police Department’s non-emergency line at 935-3311.
Tipsters who prefer to remain anonymous may call the islandwide Crime Stoppers number at 961-8300 and may be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000.
