Was hoping this would apply to primers. However, I added some to my cart and tried to checkout but was told they do not ship these items to Hawaii. Oh well.

Primer's will never be allowed onto planes.  Ammo is relatively stable.  Primers go boom.

Truck driver killed in explosion at Illinois ammunition plant
Authorities say that Oscar “Zeke” Bettorf, 60, was driving a semi truck loaded with shotgun shell primers when the primers exploded.

There's several videos on HHHNewz on FB/Instagram of the incident.  It was a teenage girls party with alcohol.  Couldn't tell what was being said, but it appeared the 2 victims were taunting the others and the lifeguard may have thrown the first punch.  I didn't get the impression that the mobbing would've happened if not for the taunting, nor that it was a planned or coordinated fight. Also, it appeared like the 2 victims could have escaped or left the party before the mobbing occurred. 

I've always wondered why no one sued Kamehameha for their Hawaiians only like policy.  The kool aid is strong in Hawaii.

Kamehameha schools is a private school that doesn't use government funds.  They should be able to dictate which students they take.  It is different from Harvard where they receive federal funds and grants and the Hawaiian Homelands which is a government entity.

Forgot to mention Kamehameha school got sued a couple of times in the past ending with large settlements.  They knew they would lose.  Not sure how it'll turn out this time as on one hand it's an anti-DEI environment, but on the other the crackdown is focused on Government related programs and NGOs and while allowing private organizations to do their own thing.

The continued kicks to the head by the mob was a clear sign that deadly force could be used to save the person.  But you may not know who started the fight, possibly hit the victim, and you could be subject to lawsuits even if you're right.

 A better option would be to use the large can of pepper spray to hose down the area when the fight started and have a gun incase they draw a gun or knife on you.

Kualoa beach/chinamans hat is nice.  You gotta apply for a permit as soon as it opens up

Bellows is nice too
[/quoMG?

Bellows no more openings.
Ima check chinamans hat thanks

Kualoa permit window opens 2 weeks prior.  For summertime, you have to apply the minute it opens or else it'll get sold out fast.

Not sure why some positions, like the mayor and county councils, are considered non-partisan.  Doesn't seem to be a difference.  Do they have to give up their membership as a registered Democrat/Republican?  I understand there's no primaries and theres no D or R next to their name, but is that the only difference?

HPD?

She didn't get enough exposure to run for President in 2028, people still don't know who she is.  She'd make a good VP for Vance.  Represent the more moderate and humble side while offering some different opinions that doesn't class too hard with Vance.  It'd bring in the moderates and independents.   She can do that, gain exposure and experience, then run for President later as she's still young.

Things are worse than you think.  PSA will deny you buying magazines in-person at their retail stores in a different state by checking your ID and checking their online compliance page for your home state.  Vote with your wallet, don't shop there until they change their policies.  This reddit thread was about a Maryland resident trying to buy magazines at a PSA store in South Carolina.  Maryland's law is you can possess, but cannot buy hi-cap mags in Maryland.

PSA now denying IN-STORE buying of magazines for people from ban states?

 I was traveling south on i95 and stopped at the PSA store in Florence SC. Picked up two 15rd magazines and a 10rd - Proceeded to the cashier.

Cashier asked me for my ID, to which I presented it. She then said "Maryland, oh boy" - Looked at a sheet and said, "I can only sell you 10 round capacity magazines because you have a magazine restriction". To which I laughed, and asked if she was serious, unfortunately she was. I didn't argue or debate it, I just wrote them off immediately as Anti-2A.

PSA will never see me as a customer again, just a heads up for MD residence hoping to get magazines.

*Edit* - Take note of the multiple replies in this thread of those who have been denied a magazine sale in person at a PSA retail store. Do with that as you wish, I hope you spend your money elsewhere.
