The court is still divided 2-1 and as Baker comes in a different "position" & "posture" compared to Peruta, a SCOTUS appeal may be forthcoming.

However the FIRST ROUND OF DRINKS IS ON ME! 

Hats off to you thanks gentleman

The court is still divided 2-1 and as Baker comes in a different "position" compared to Peruta, a SCOTUS appeal may be forthcoming.

However the FIRST ROUND OF DRINKS IS ON ME! 

We are a ways off from that if ever; it's unlikely the City would appeal it that far.  I don't think they would appeal anything as it is, but we will see.

 
Congratulations to all involved in the lawsuit. Mr. Baker, Mr. Beck and Mr. Holcomb, and their assisting associates have my respect for filing the suit and spending what are no doubt countless hours researching, refining their arguments, and filing endless reams of paperwork. 

I admire your persistence in standing up to a (in my opinion) fascist government of legislators and law enforcement and judges who have no problem with enacting and enforcing and upholding unconstitutional laws. The odds were against this case, at least until possibly being accepted by SCOTUS, and the luck of the draw in the Ninth Circuit resulted in two judges who are willing to uphold what the Constitution actually says.  I knew that a rational assessment of the case would yield this result, but wasn't expecting the Ninth Circuit to be rational about a Second Amendment issue. Wow! 

Let's hope that the Hawaii Attorney General and Governor acknowledge this and make the whole state consistent with the Constitutionally-guaranteed right to bear arms. I'm not holding my breath, but hopeful that I might still be alive when it happens. 

Holy crap this is great news! 

Congrats to the baker team.  So whats the next step in the fight?

A big thanks and congrats to Chris and the team.  The hard work, time and effort paid off.  We're all grateful 

 

Awesome news!!!

as others have noted, a big congratulations and thanks on behalf of everyone who stands for freedom in this state.

furthermore, I do not really know what the linked document really said in laymans terms. When will we have a document we can print out to take to HPD and demand our permits?

Congrats to the baker team.  So whats the next step in the fight?

george young's appeal is the next step. The government conceded on all issues other than carry so HRS 134 is going to be revised very soon.

A lot of credit goes to both Chris and George for stepping up and pushing for Second Amendment rights in Hawaii

is the line at HPD is gonna get crazy again?

wow. thank you so much!

With regard to the Young case, I didn't see any courtroom oral argument on Michella website, just a lot of filings. Is there to be no courtroom argument or was there one not posted or listed?

Thank you for all your work on this and other Second Amendment cases. I'm wondering you'd be willing to narrow down "very soon"? Six months? Two years? Five more years?

Arguments have no been scheduled yet. Since the appeal was unopposed other than on 134-9 the Court might not even have arguments. I hope that is the case since it costs a lot of money to pay for going up to San Fran for this stuff

Thank you all who were involved !  I will now save for a firearm to carry.That XDs 4inch is looking mighty appealing now

That's for all the hard work guys

Thank you for what you've done.  I hope to see CCW as shall issue someday soon.

We are a ways off from that if ever; it's unlikely the City would appeal it that far.  I don't think they would appeal anything as it is, but we will see.

Chris, is this the time to apply for CCW or should we wait until the lower court grants your injunction?

Thank you Chris and to your team.
We are all grateful for your hard work and determination in helping all legal gun owners and enthusiasts.
