I didn't get to watch the 5pm but the Mayor was interviewed.  The nice weather brought everyone out.

They just talked about the improvements and a short interview with Mike M.  A quick shot of the mayor's backside as he talked to a couple of shooters on a bench. 
No one is coming, it’s up to us.

Legislation should never be about depriving law abiding citizens of something, but rather taking those things away from criminals.

Would have liked to hear what the Mayor had to say.  I am sure it was a positive.  He does support the facility.

shooters get their playground back?  :(    not entirely true or false.  I don't mean to nitpick but that does plant a certain image out there like not important and can be removed at any time and without care.  otherwise ok glad the range is open again.  what happen to the party :D

I noticed the same thing, and it grated on me too. If you read the article [ I didn't watch the news ] one of the people they interviewed stated "This is my playground". So they didn't just make it up.
It does show how the media can make hay with an out of context quote.

Gotta watch the link.

Mayor Caldwell is awesome.
He explains how it's the only range on Oahu and if people want to learn about shooting and firearms safety it's the only place to go, so he wants to make sure it's available.

Unkle calls it his playground.
