Why are you so immature?  You offered nothing more than a tantrum.

Go take a time-out.  Maybe you'll think of something more productive to offer.

The "situation" given to them?  Did you MISS the press conference where the POLICE DEPARTMENT is pushing for even more gun control laws?

"Given to them".  LOL!! Right!!   

Ok, lets write section 134 so that each and every law in it will encompass anything and everything that could ever happen. Police station burns down, aliens attack, a pandemic happens, a tsunami happens, etc etc.

They are doing what they can based on what the situation is giving them. They could pack people in a line like usual but then they would be violating covid19 orders. Is it perfect? No, of course not, they had to rush it into place but all things considering I think the system is actually quite decent. The reservation system is nice so you don't have to stand in line for 2 hours and they are giving us extra leeway in registering our firearms. Usually people complain when government makes it harder to register firearms but you are complaining that they made it easier.

You are the absolute worst.

You are the absolute worst.

You are the absolute worst.

Sorry I don't live in a fairy tale land powered by idealism. I would like a better system as much as the next guy but I know its not that simple for the department to satisfy both the gun law chapter and the cover orders in a way that will satisfy all.

Hence nuance.

He's just repeating his boss' the Police Chief's sentiments.

If HPD really wanted to make it easier, they would eliminate the 2 week wait if you already had to wait that long for an appointment.  The 2 weeks is supposed to be a "cooling off" period, not extra time to do a background check.  They could easily finish that in 3 days or less.  Does anyone really believe waiting 2 weeks BEFORE applying for a permit is going to "cool you down" any less than having to wait 2 week AFTER applying?

Yeah.  They really want to make the process easier for buyers.         

One way to disprove this "cooling off period" BS is to look at how many people opt out of acquiring a firearm after waiting 2 weeks. I'd bet that number is non existent

Really? I can think of one if they want to make everyone wait. Why don't they just do what California, Hawaii's big communist brother does and allow the FFLs to do the BG checks. Still have to wait 10 days (and up to 30 now in COVID). CA makes everyone who want to exercise their right do the BG, obtain a Firearms Safety Certificate and take a test in safe handling. And while I object to all of those things, at least their system is still functioning. And according to the vendors on the site, when purchases/transfers are made, they fax all the info right to HPD so it should not be any problem with communication. The NICS system is fairly instant (that would be the instant part of the NICS acronym). The decision to oppress us lies solely at the feet of the legislature and the chief.

Hawaii is broke dick. They don't give a shit about our rights. They just want to control us.

The firearm owners protection act - federal law, says gun registration is illegal. Why has no one on this forum ever said anything about this? S.49 - Firearms Protection act, public law 99-308.
"No regulation may require... ...the establishment of any system of registration of firearms, firearm owners or of transactions"

So what, if I violate local or federal law against thousands of people, threatening them with prison or death for non-compliance, I get an air conditioned office and taxpayer funded salary, too?

It applies to the states. It says "No regulation may require the transfer of records required under this act to a facility owned, managed or controlled by the United States or any state, or the establishment of ANY SYSTEM OF REGISTRATION OF FIREARMS, FIREARM OWNERS OR FIREARM TRANSACTIONS."

This is one sentence of the legislation, meaning, it encompasses the act of both transfer of records of class 3 shit and ANY OR ALL ATTEMPTS AT FIREARM OR FIREARM OWNER REGISTRATION by FEDS OR STATES.

Hawaii state govt. is committing a federal felony with every demand of a registration by threat of prosecution and threat of using lethal force to uphold the arrest. If the state gets to violate federal law, so should I. I am going to refuse to report any lobsters of U.S. origin I suspect are over 15 Lbs. and caught without a proper license. (DEAR FEDERAL AGENTS, THIS POST WAS MADE IN JEST. I DO NOT AND HAVE NOT CONSPIRED OR HAVE WILLINGLY ATTEMPTED TO VIOLATE ANY U.S. CODE)


"They enacted the registration requirement before FOPA was enacted..." -moot. Ex post facto only applies to acts against citizens by the gov. This legislation renders pre-existing legislation null. Then again, so does the constitution, bill of rights and many, many court decisions as precedent ruling any law that is in violation of constitutional law or exercise of constitutionally protected rights as null. Which also means Hawaii state govt. is in grave, egregious violation of constitutional and federal law and we need a metric fuckton of arrests downtown.

The next time someone makes a thread saying "We gotta 'fight' X gun control bill", remember Hawaii state govt., thanks to Karl Rhoads and organized crime/DNC/Soros cash, illegally claims we citizens cannot change, create or stop the laws they make. This is a direct violation of the 1A, which protects our right to petition the system as citizens. Nothing will change without these fucks being led off in handcuffs.
