Yes he was banned. Not becuase he was a troll, but because he constantly posted plagiarized material without citing references or adding his own content.
This happens in forums all the time.. not a big deal, nor the last time this guy will probably get banned.. it seems to be in his/her nature to stir it up.. fits well with his Bob Marley profile pic!
The best way to handle people like this is to ignore them.. don't respond to their outlandish comments.. don't engage them. They get bored quickly if there's no drama. If someone just has to say something.. better to post it in another thread in a new topic.. not directly responding to the troll, but more of a back door argument to whatever points were being made.
But sometimes, people just get banned. It happens in a lot of forums. There are anti-social people & trouble lovers everywhere. Many have ccw permits. But it seems to me, in this state, we have to be exceptional model citizens.. reasonable, polite, normal. That is the 'profile' we want to project of the ccw permit holder.
We shouldn't have to. It should be the govt's responsibility to prove inadequacy for permitees, not for us to prove we have good reason. It is supposed to be a 'right' for us to keep & bear arms. It should be the govt's job to keep those arms from anti-social or criminal types, not the general population. Hopefully, there will be more leeway in ccw here in Hawaii. Maybe even in my lifetime..
