The message received by Senators and Representatives is that gun owners don't have a problem with their rights being reduced.  With the thousands of gun owners in the state, only a few submitted testimony or contacted their legislators in opposition to these bills.  Less than 100 testimonies opposing each bill was submitted, that's less than 1% of all gun owners in Hawaii.  If gun owners continue to be apathetic in a State with some of the most restrictive gun laws, expect to see more of your rights being taken away.
