great job, JL
:thumbsup:

wow, thanks JL

Friggin' JL, that's an awesome job (and a lot of work you put in)
thanks ! :shaka: :thumbsup:
Who knew there would be so many 2A bills introduced.
A lot to support and a lot to oppose.
Let's hope the troops rally.

Looks like the schemers at the capitol are getting busy.
If you guys can suggest color codes (support or oppose) for some of the new bills, please let me know as I haven't had a chance to read through most of them.

I'm going to echo everyone else and say awesome job! :thumbsup:
As far as the color codes, I would say red for oppose, green for support, and yellow for anything else until it can be discussed. For example, HB2629, I would NOT support this as it calls for ALL firearms applicants to be enrolled in a "criminal record monitoring service used to alert police when an owner of a firearm is arrested for a criminal offense anywhere in the country". Sounds like a national database of firearms owners to me.
I would also include HB2630 which would hand over our registration info to the Hawaii Criminal justice Data Center, and HB2631 which seems to be basically the same as HB2629 with wording to include "Lawful permanent residents" or legal aliens. Also its companion SB783.
We're not pedophiles, and we shouldn't have to be "registered" into any criminal database simply for exercising our Constitutional rights.
I'll be going over these bills and posting my opinions for discussion. I hope everyone else will do the same, as well as show up for hearings when possible and submitting testimony if it's not
Again, great job and Thank You!

Support 5 (I only counted the HPD testimony once, even though they printed it twice in the online testimony document).
Oppose: 39
Committee vote:
Ayes: 8
Noes: 0 (zero)
Just sayin'... "our" legislators doing work for "we the people"! :wtf: Yeah, yeah, I know... "it's not a democracy", but still... the testimony was 8 to 1 (ratio) OPPOSE, and the vote (actual) was 8 to 0 FOR. Even in a "representative republic" that seems a little askew. I guess only if the legislators represented the people. (Perhaps 50 people testified for the bill in person at the hearing, and zero against... I didn't watch the hearing and haven't seen a report on that...)

Thanks for the hard work on this.
I'm confused, if I already submitted testimony on these for the previous deadline, can I submit again? (Guess I could go try.). What is the reason for the new deadline? Is this the final step where they pass them all despite all the dissenting testimony? Thanks.

If the announcement has wording like "will hold a public decision making" (let's face it, the "decision" on most of these bills was made long before they came before the committees and in spite of overwhelming testimony opposing the legislators' agenda) then no new testimony is allowed, and if you try to submit testimony via the .gov site for that bill it won't allow it. The only option in those cases is to write an email directly to the chairman of the committee who will announce that your rights don't matter to him/her, we don't care what the balance of the testimony is, nor what potential for abuse is in the ambiguous or not so ambiguous language of the bill, too bad for you.

I didn't see my rep voting yes on any of the bills I emailed him about. I guess maybe he listened.

JL listed how everyone voted.
What reading it was
And what's happening to the bill next.
You need to watch some school house rock man to learn about bills and the process.
-
For house, there are 51 representatives in total. You would need 26 votes to get a majority vote.
For senate, there are 25 senators in total. You would need 13 votes to get a majority vote.
When a measure says it passed, then you can assume that those not listed voted Aye. Those listed are those that voted otherwise (Aye with reservations, Nays, Excused)
When a measure says it failed, then you can assume that those not listed voted Nay.

Good idea bass monkey.
Here is a good article explaining the legislative process and timeline.

"aye with reservations" oftentimes means that there was a lot of testimony in opposition, so i am saying "i have reservations so it doesn't look like i am going against the wishes of my constituency"

I didn't see my rep voting yes on any of the bills I emailed him about. I guess maybe he listened.
I asked JI808 the same question yesterday.
He responded that they do not list the winning votes (aye or no), just the "with reservations" and losing votes.
So when a bill passes, as above, only the losing opposition votes, Noes, and ayes with reservations, and are listed.
It's confusing because with the committee votes, they list all the votes: ayes, ayes with reservations, noes, and excused.
So, no, your representative didn't listen to you. Mine either. He ignored multiple emails and two phone calls in which I had stressed that I voted in every election and my vote for him was dependent on his voting no on all the anti-second amendment rights bills. He nokea.

Ahh. Got it. Makes sense. I was reading this late and after a few drinks. Was really just looking for what my rep voted. He was party to HB626, so I assume he voted yes.

I've written him many times, going back at least a few sessions. He hasn't replied to any of my emails. I will email him to make sure he knows that he lost my vote, especially in a case where the overwhelming testimony received was in opposition.
I will continue to email him and my senators. One of my good friend's wife does work with the Leg. I'll talk to her next time I go over to their house. My buddy is pro gun, but she's scared of guns.

Whats the deal with effective dates taking place in 2059?
Hey Q, I asked about that once and was told they just put any old date in there as a place holder until they get closer to actually passing it and then decide when the "effective date" will be. :shaka:
The ones I have a problem with is when they have a current bill that says "to take effect in 2009". If any place could have retroactive laws making us retroactive criminals, it'd be Hawaii.

Just received this email from Harvey, it's very disturbing Hawaii! We need everyone this site to get involved or there will be no more 2aHawaii..
State Affiliate of the National Rifle Association - Founded in 1857
April 11, 2016
The message received by Senators and Representatives is that gun owners don't have a problem with their rights being reduced. With the thousands of gun owners in the state, only a few submitted testimony or contacted their legislators in opposition to these bills. Less than 100 testimonies opposing each bill was submitted, that's less than 1% of all gun owners in Hawaii. If gun owners continue to be apathetic in a State with some of the most restrictive gun laws, expect to see more of your rights being taken away.
HB 625 - Misdemeanor harrassment disqualifies a person from owning, possessing, or controlling a gun
HB 2629 - Rap Back
HB 2632 - Emergency Hospitalization results in immediate removal of all firearms
MAHALO

Thank you for all of your work!..... but I strongly disagree with 13 and 17 being "for." Non-citizens should not have guns, period. Until the immigration system is un-f'd, we can't allow that system to justify their ownership of arms.
I also support people on terrorist watch lists or no-fly lists (like 33) getting at least a temporary ban.
Honestly, it would be so much easier to just make the law say something like, "no national, citizen, or person originating from or associated with any Muslim majority country may own a firearm." Done, but of course that's not PC and boohoo.

Thanks for your comments davgdavg.
Regarding the pro or con, this was the recommendation from Dr Cooper on whether the bills are pro or con.
For denying rights to own firearms for green card holders, wouldn't this be a slippery slope? What about citizen Muslims that have never been convicted of any felony? Why not Filipinos? Or British? Or blacks? Or whites? Slippery slope.
The no fly list is 40-60% inaccurate, which is why the legislators pulled that bill. If you were mistakenly put on a secret list that you had no means of getting removed from, would you want the government to use that list as a criteria for confiscating your firearms?
