I've been emailing the governor about these bills at least once a day using the NRA automated system. I've also sent at least a couple through the .gov website. I have never even once received acknowledgement of receipt of any communications from me, let alone an actual response to the content.

I just email Governor Rick Scott of Florida about some bullshit law there that requires people to prove they are innocent of any self-defense acts, having been assumed guilty until they can prove themselves otherwise. In other words, a standing on its head of the principle of "innocent until proven guilty". Within one minute I received a reply email acknowledging receipt of my email. How hard would it be for Hawaii's government bureaucrats to do the same? Too hard apparently.

Okay, I gotta go send Ige more emails 'cause he nokeah.

Why would he stoop to acknowledging the peasants?
It's not an election year for him.

You really think he'll stoop to acknowledge the peasants in an election year? The donors, maybe... I know, I'll send him an email and ask him about that...

If your e-mailing him about guns he knows your not voting for him anyway so.......

So is 2954 going to enter all currently registered gun owners into the rapback DB?  Or just new ones that buy from some arbitrary date?

So does anyone think the NRA will help us out or leave us hung out on our own.

hung out. just a wild guess. based on every other egregious hawaii anti-firearm civil rights law in recent history.

Meanwhile, at the NRA headquarters...

"Wait, Hawaii is a state!?!"

Hawaii is just "small potatoes", so even though Baker was essentially the same legal challenge as Peruta and Richards, and all three thus argued before the same three judge panel at the same time, only Peruta and Richards went to the en banc panel (though that also at least partially has to do with the specific legal details of the sought remedies). Any Hawaii case that might make it the federal appellate level means that it is being adjudicated in the Ninth Circuit, the most "liberal" circuit, and highly unlikely to support any Second Amendment right of any consequence (See Peruta: there is no constitutional right to concealed carry), and thus legal funds can be spent much more productively in other circuits. Lucky we live Hawaii! 

Does anyone know the answer to my question?

Cause HNN is stating Ige just signed it.
