The money is coming from the tax payers.

Who on Oahu has paid taxes when buying guns? 
Cleaning supplies?

We all spend tons of money every year, and the state always gets its cut in the form of excise tax.  Many of us also pay property taxes.  We register vehicles, buy boats, etc, etc, etc.

The taxes we pay go to all kinds of municipal programs many of us are not interested enough in to use.

I submit that repairing and improving a public range is not something we have to "find money for" when so many on this island already paid for the facility year after year after year.

Yeah, "all that money from the NRA."

As opposed to all that money from Bloomberg, the Joyce Foundation, George Soros, Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream and other very wealthy hyperliberal organizations and individuals.

Quote
Michael Bloomberg isn't just another citizen --he is the 13th richest man in the world.  NRA's total annual budget is chump change to him.

With the creation and personal funding of a cabal of urban political machines, Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG) and his self-funded mulit-million dollar super Political Action Committee, Bloomberg is obsessed with becoming a dictator over the Second Amendment.

(NRA President James W. Porter II,  writing in the American Rifleman December 2013 issue, p14.)

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot.  Read 'em and weep.

(Caveat:  Many organizations contribute to both sides of issues.)

So let's not hear about "NRA money" any more, huh?  It's straight out of the hyperleftist's playbook.

I do believe that the radical and crazy notion that the Founders meant what they said, is gradually soaking through the judicial system.

 You're absolutely correct, but it's not just the fact that we all pay taxes and fees in support of our sport. This is one of the most utilized public recreation areas on the island, if not the state. It falls under the jurisdiction of the Dept, of Parks and Recreation, and as such should receive regular maintenance and upgrades. Past administrations have kicked these responsibilities to the curb in favor of "PC" agendas, probably in the hope that people would stop using such a decrepit facility. Not that they've lavished money on the rest of the parks system

I didn't support Caldwell for Mayor, but I have to admit, he's been showing a great deal of support for us in the face of liberal hacks such as Knudsen. That, coupled with the fact that I'm seeing the infrastructure of Oahu finally being taken care of, is turning me into a believer.

Maybe, just maybe, we've finally got someone in office that will back up their rhetoric.
Always be yourself.
Unless you can be a pirate.
Then always be a pirate.

Well, a couple of days after I got my "Self-Protection Permit" I packed four guns* while running errands, just because I could. But "Four-Gun Ferry" doesn't work.  Neither does "Multi-Gun Merry."  Or "One-Gun Oerry."  Now if my name were "Gary," "One-Gun Gary" would work, but doesn't sound macho enough.

*No, seriously, I really did that:  1911 in shoulder rig, .380 IWB at 3 o'clock, Detective Special in ankle rig, and a buck nekkid little.25 in my coat pocket.  With extra ammo for each.  Pain in the ass.  Never did that again.  But it's fun to tell about it.  In past winters I carried a laser-sighted 1911 OWB crossdraw (my favorite gun position) with a .38 of one kind or another in my right coat pocket.  The beauty of that was I could (G-d forbid) fire right from the pocket.

The odd thing about that is that it made the little .38 my primary gun, and the full-sized 1911 became my backup gun!

Nowadays I'm packing a little Kahr CW9 around either in my coat pocket or under my coat in a crossdraw OWB.  Nice freakin' little gun, and fairly cheap.  Can't get a gloved finger in the trigger hole too easily, but I don't imagine that's a problem for you guys.
