Legal and Activism / Re: Yukutake vs. Lopez Donations
« on: October 05, 2026, 08:55:53 PM »
Raised $1,400 in donations for the Yukutake & Kikukawa v Lopez appeal to the US Supreme Court during the show.  Thanks to Kainoa and HRA for helping us.
Combined with the Zeffy online donations, we have $2700 total with a goal of $10,000 in two months.


Take a HRA and LIFE course and the procedes will go to the appeal fund.

Bought 60 rounds of Hornady Critical Defense 223 for $97.  Was expensive but figured I'm way overdue on buying home defense rounds instead of using the typical M193/M855 ball.

No firearm(s) recovered but charged with firearm offenses and second degree murder.

I will never understand how the justice system works.

Grand juries just need probable cause to indict, it probably happened.  A video of the act would surely meet that.  But if what the defense says is correct, then it'd be on the low end of that border.

General Discussion / Kailua fair shooting
« on: October 02, 2026, 01:02:20 PM »
For one thing, that's a tough first name to say.  Defense does bring up some good points for witness issues and that a gun was not recovered.  Wonder if they have video evidence.

It's unusual in that a woman with no history, turned themselves in, and has a legally registered gun committed a crime like this.  If they did the shooting, usually they'll claim self defense but they did not here.  Very interested in the State's evidence.


Hilinaikailimakualopali Keeno is charged with second-degree murder and two firearms offenses in the case of a deadly Kailua shooting over the weekend.

Do these "other states" affected provide any financial support ?

The other states join together in the pro or antigun side and usually provide an amicus brief, friends of the court brief, to provide evidence and support.  These briefs then are incorporated into the final scotus opinion.

Please help with the donations and send me to SCOTUS next year.  Submitting the request and briefs to SCOTUS, briefs, attorney travel, and other expenses will likely cost $30,000+.

So for #6, illegals can legally buy guns now?  That's going to be interesting at the police department.  Police gotta enforce it on themselves.

Here's another interesting baby killing accident.  Common mistake for parents


Mom who says she mistakenly put newborn in oven instead of crib learns her fate

They said Thomas told them that she was putting the child down for a nap but accidentally put the child in the oven instead of the crib.

No worries, the fight is not over.  We are petitioning for cert at SCOTUS.  It has a high likelyhood of being accepted as it checks all the boxes...final decision, circuit court split, 9th is seeking guidance from SCOTUS, and it may settle the question on ancillary rights.  We will be doing a fundraiser as it'll cost $30k+ for the SCOTUS appeal.

Yes because a white judge not from Hawai'i and appointed by Ige wouldn't possibly misuse Hawaiian culture and history to justify infringing on people's 2nd amendment rights.

You might not be aware of the fact that the spirit of aloha law was passed into law in 1986 and is a cherry picked version of Hawaiian principles and values.

You might also not be aware that being armed was a part of the traditional Hawaiian identity (or at least until we became westernized), in part due to it was common for most Hawaiian men to be armed with at least a pāhoa and/or 'ihe. Weapon control only really became a legal reality under Kauikeaouli and later expanded upon by Alexander Liholiho and especially the territorial government.

If you actually knew about Hawaiian history, you would know that this painting, "Maniere de Punir de Nort un Coupable Aux Iles Sandwich" By Jacques Arago, is actually depicting capital punishment against a criminal, not some innocent person subjugated by a tyrannical government. As a matter of fact, Kānāwai Mamalahoe was still very much enforced in 1822 and the individual being executed was most likely being executed for murder or significant property crimes that compromised the safety or well-being of the populace.

So again, if people want to ridicule the state of self defense in Hawai'i, ridicule the correct demographic that made Hawai'i like this and still controls most of the government.

Perhaps

Going a bit off topic on the Spirit of Aloha, something to think about...  assuming the 2A is about militia rights

If the Federal Constitution has a 2A right, it protects the State militias to fight Federal tyranny

If the State Constitution has a 2A right, it protects the County militias to fight State tyranny?  Since there were no county militias when the State/Territorial Constitution was created with the right to keep and bear arms in 1950, what was the purpose of adding it?  If it was to arm the National Guard, a state entity, why does the State have to give itself rights to arm itself?  There must be convention notes on the purpose of the State 2A.

Interesting, doing an AI search on the historical notes,  the right was originally intended to be an individual right in 1950, then changed to a collective militia right in 1968.

What does the modern government have to do with posting executions documented during the early years Hawaiian kingdom. Why not post photos of Asians doing stuff like this, given they have been the ethic majority in Hawaii since at least 1900, have controlled the majority of the government since 1954 and are the primary reason the Hawaii government is the way it is.

You might not be aware of the 2024 Hawaii Supreme Court's "Spirit of Aloha" ruling that says people don't have a 2A right to defend themselves with weapons because Hawaii has a tradition of peace and people not possessing weapons.

I see the picture represents the brutality of Hawaii's ancient kingdom that doesn't match the "Spirit of Aloha" conclusion, and that the people should have arms to protect themselves in the ancient past and current day.

During my deployment to the ME, my friend and I made plans to catch the superferry with our motorcycles and ride on the big island. It was shut down when I came back.  So disappointed.

The other side to it is it can tell other tourists to cancel their vacations and to give donations.
