The senators called on congressional leaders to support federal legislation requiring universal background checks on all firearm sales, and banning so-called bump stocks, which are used to modify firearms so they fire almost as rapidly as automatic weapons.
The lawmakers pledged to also address gun violence in Hawaii, which has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation.
“We are also ready and willing to enact sensible policies at the state level to pass responsible, commonsense solutions to preventing gun violence,” they wrote.

Karen Droscoski, deputy attorney general with the Office of the Attorney General’s Criminal Justice Division:
“I’m sure there’s going to be lots of new legislation coming up for the 2018 session due to unfortunately a lot of the things that have recently happened on the mainland.”

look for "common sense gun control legislation" being introduced in the legislature
there will be bump fire bans, magazine limits, etc, etc, all the way up to an "assault weapon" ban
we MUST fight all of them
DON'T think it cannot happen
DON'T think we will be grandfathered in
look what happened with rapback, everyone just said "they can't do that, it's against the law" "it's unconstitutional" and yet they did it
and despite over 10x more testimony against than for

PLEASE tell all your gun-loving, freedom-loving, constitution-loving friends, neighbors, and relatives what is coming starting in January over thanksgiving and the other holidays
tell them to watch 2ahawaii.com and FB for calls to action and updates
we need to FIGHT

I emailed my rep a long letter and provided CDC stats on gun deaths vs. car deaths.
