My anti-gun friend called me to ask about getting a rifle now that a baseball bat is useless!

He got mad when I told him there is a 2 week waiting period.

He asked me who made these laws? I said you did! Dumb Democrats!

I told him you still voting for Schatz? He asked why? I said he so anti gun you will never own one!

I have a picture in my brain of a giant rat trap with a generator tied to the trip lever.

If he is gonna call 911, hopefully his cell phone is charged, if he/she is located in an area without any power or land line connection.

You can almost fit the entire island of Oahu in the Puna district. There are a few subdivisions with homes close by. Then there are areas where you could drive for miles before coming up on a single home. A lot of them will not be spotted from the air. They want it that way. These guys are dug in deep.

I heard that J Hara's has been getting a lot of ammo sales. In town, the gun shops are getting a lot of people wanting to buy guns, and they want them now. Must be first timers. They don't know about the wait time.

And there are only 12-15 officers per watch (I am sure they probably have more now with the given situation out there). My friend is a police officer in the Puna district and he said its like the wild west out in Puna. Crazy! People stealing generators while it's running! Well that's PUNATICS for you.

Wait until they find out about the long gun permit process!

Not to mention the pistol permit circus. 

Would be great to interview a few of the more PO'd ones about who they voted for and did they know what their 2A stance was back then?

A while back there were vacant rental homes that were stripped clean. Cabinets, carpets, electrical, plumbing, etc. Also in the news maybe a year ago, there was a family from Oahu out looking at homes to buy in Hawaiian Acres. Drove by a house and a guy came out shooting at their mini van. There are areas there that no one should venture in to.
