There’s a huge metaphor in there: When “Obey the government or die” morphs into “Obey the government AND die,” an armed people have a choice to make.

A Matter of Priorities
Hawaiian Electric knew of wildfire threat, but focused instead on mandated shift to renewable energy – Hawaiian Electric is facing scrutiny over whether its power lines started the Maui blaze [More]
That’s some carbon footprint the Opposite Day “progressive” environmentalcases mandated.

Desperate survivors in Lahaina are robbing people at gunpoint as they wait for food and shelter in the aftermath of the Maui wildfires, Hawaiian locals said. [More]
If only there was some Constitutional provision for dealing with mass social unrest…

BIG 2A WIN IN HAWAII: Obama-appointed Federal Judge Knocks Out Much of Hawaii’s “Gun Free Zone” ban [Watch]
That makes two now from Hawaii that Adam’s got to wring his hands about.
Do you think he might be the one setting the fires?

More fine work from Alan Beck and Stephen Stamboulieh…
I notice Adam Winkler whining about Bruen creating an “impossible position.” Why they ever invited this guy to GRPC is beyond me– it’s not like he’s a pal.
Can you imagine if we started challenging other tyrannical edicts and programs based on historical understanding at the time of ratification? It could change everything.

Meet the New Boss
I Thought They Were Against Reciprocity
If I understand this right, an Everytown pettifogger not licensed to practice in Hawaii, and who has already been turned down in California, wants permission to attack the rights of gun owners there…? [More]

What do they care if they all run afoul of Bruen?
They have tax cows they can milk for legal war chest funds, all the while depleting their victims’ resources to fight back.
Some Good News and Some Bad News
HPD Approves First Concealed Carry Permit for Unknown Applicant- But local guns right advocates told KITV4 that they do not know who that permit is going to, and why only one was announced to have been approved. Hawaii Firearms Coalition representative Andrew Namiki Roberts was 2nd to file, and told KITV4 the first person who filled out an application has not received any notification yet; Neither has he. [More]
So how do we respect the person’s privacy and also find out if s/he’s a connected anti-gun Democrat or a big campaign contributor?
And when does George Young get his?

Hawaii’s Mauna Loa, world’s largest active volcano, starts to erupt for first time in nearly four decades [More]
If a really big one happens it will be instructive to see how the basically unarmed Igeocracy will fare in mass disorder that overwhelms civil authority.

The Homesick Loophole
The ‘H’ Word
“It’s not a hate crime to assault somebody and in the course of it use the word ‘haole,’” court-appointed attorney Lynn Panagakos said during her opening statement. [More]
I wouldn’t count on extrapolating that to include other applications…
And speaking of Hawaii, with a new Bruen-defying “sensitive places” bill making the rounds there, I wouldn’t count on infringed recognition of the right to bear arms anytime soon…
Getting the Lead Out
Oahu’s only public shooting range closed indefinitely as probe into possible lead contamination begins – The city confirmed nine of 10 staff members at the shooting complex who were tested have lead levels above the normal range. Two additional staff members declined to get tested. [More]
Define “above the normal range.” Why bring in a military berm, and what does “right next to” really mean?
Forgive me for suspecting anti-gun environmentalcase chicanery at work.

Igeocracy
Within a month, hundreds of people in Hawaii could be carrying concealed guns. That’s based on applications so far at each of Hawaii’s four county police departments and each chief’s timeline for approving them. [Watch]
That it isn’t hundreds of thousands is a pretty good indicator on why the place is still an Igeocracy.
And that’s “could be carrying concealed guns [LEGALLY]…”
Too bad vindication won’t include attorney fees…
