HHN had a story about Byrna HI is the #1 sales in the world for the item.  They sold over 5,000 since they opened 2 years ago.

They have a wall of letters/emails/reviews that were sent to them on how it protected someone.  I may go by to read this.

It's shows how sad HI is on crime that we became the #1 seller of the item in the world.  Or maybe since our CCW process is so hard, other state residents choose to carry a real gun instead.  I know of 1 gun store who supports these madda fakkas who set up the CCW policies.

$80 for a 1 time use. Plus PAVA isn't as safe as OC and may result in a lawsuit for permanent damage.

I'll stick with OC Spray for $12.

The hearing is 24 hours later on 4/2/24 at 10:05am.

THIS IS A DECISION ONLY HEARING. So no Zoom or in person testimony excepted.  Only online testimony accepted.

This is about making misdemeanors a felony if you're CCWing.  And making butterfly/switch blades legal, but you cannot conceal carry them. So almost useless. They're only making them legal because they've been sued and trying to stiff the attorney by changing the law.

From Atty Alan Beck

"Sgt. Major George K. Young Jr. (Retired U.S. Army Green Beret) passed on earlier this week.  He was my first client I represented on my own.  Prior to meeting me, he had filed two pro se lawsuit against Hawaii's concealed carry restrictions.  That means he was his own lawyer.  I corresponded with him while working on my first federal case.  Shortly, there after he told me he was going to file a third lawsuit.  After he was dismissed a third time, I agreed to represent him on appeal. Together we took the case to the U.S. Supreme Court, prevailed  and compelled the counties in Hawaii to adopt the Bruen ruling which made them begin to issue concealed carry permits for the first time in Hawaiian history.  My first Second Amendment case was supposed to be a one off and I had no intention of filing any subsequent cases until I met George.  He convinced me to keep filing cases and often helped me research colonial history which he was an expert in. He taught me a lot during the ten years I represented him.  Everything that we've accomplished in Hawaii is thanks to George.  He inspired the whole movement we are a part of.  He was a dear friend and he will be deeply missed."

We owe lots to Mr. Young as he and Alan fought and is still fighting for our freedom that HI loves to deny.

Hearing is 24 hours later on 3/15.

They're making butterfly knives and switch blades legal to only open carry. Conceal carrying them would be illegal.

The purpose of this is to screw the lawyer over for the lawsuit so he doesn't get paid by the state when he wins.  If the state changes the law, then the lawsuit gets thrown out.  And HI is trying their best to be in compliance with the 2nd amendment, but doing as much as possible to regulate it. Hence the ban on concealed carrying it.

And submitted all the required things in 2023.

Join HIFICO ASAP as a member so you can have the benefits of their lawsuit if they win.

Shame on you for not being a member to begin with. (Joking, but not joking).
