As you probably know, Hawaii's gun laws are on the restrictive side. For example, we are a "may issue" concealed carry state, which means acquiring a CC is functionally impossible. SB2353 would switch us to a "shall issue" state. I don't expect a lot of people to IWB carry in their board shorts, but it would be nice to have the option!
On to the next item. I'm ok with waiting periods and background checks for first time gun owners. It doesn't matter if you agree, but I think we have consensus that it gets a little old having to wait two weeks for a permit to acquire a handgun after already passing the background check several times. Looks like someone agrees with us: SB2050.
If you think either of these is a good idea, contact your state senators! If you're feeling particularly energetic, written testimony goes a long way in state senate hearings. Try to keep it factual and non-partisan! Trust me, manifestos and/or rants won't help here.
