Gun shops should have gotten involved because I for one will not buy or transfer another firearm into the state.  This was extremely bad for business to them.

Kind of flatlining we're at $3727 right now (before fees) or at about 20% of what we need. If HPD Denys my permit on the 19th I think we can get another big push and I will try to go national with the story. I going to ask a friend I end to try and write a press release for me. (Or if one of you is good at formal writing let me know) one of my biggest problems is I know what's what but have difficulty putting it into words/writing without coming across as militant/ a price.

I spoke to maybe a dozen people at the range on Saturday and most of them dident know and dident care, I'm not going To commit a crime so why should it effect me attitude or that's not right but oh well what can you do.

Yep.  That's why our gun rights in Hawaii are going down hill so very quickly, ainokea..   sad. 

Still having brisk likes on FB but people tend to like and share, however action is something else altogether.

Edited my post above, I'm working on some other stuff to help find this. I'm starting another company 12over6.com  that I will use to sell some tactical products, clothing and branded merchandise. 100% of the profits will go to protecting  tHe 2A in Hawaii.

A lot of people I think will be willing to contribute in return for something. Be it stickers, hats, shirts, gear etc...

One estimate (likely very low as many people are likely very reticent to tell a stranger that they have guns in their home) is that 6.7% of the Hawaii population own guns. According the the 2016 estimate Hawaii's population is 1.441,000. That means AT LEAST 96,547 people own guns in this state. If only 1 out of every ten (9,965) were willing to donate to the fund to fight RapBack, they'd need to donate $1.51 each to cover the entire $15,000 goal of the fund. I'm poor, and an extremely "thrifty" cheapskate and even I gave way more than that.  To be stuck at $3,800 is a sign of just how ainokea things are for firearm civil rights here in Hawaii. It's sickening.

Imagine the response if the legislature got emails/phone calls/testimony from 10%  (9,655) of those owners about bills favoring our rights! Imagine if they got calls/testimony from even one percent (1% = 965).  That one percent would increase by 1,000% the most testimony received on any bill regarding firearm civil rights in the past several years! Only one out of a hundred... and the best we've ever gotten is one out of a thousand! Now THAT'S friggin' sad! The anti-gun rights legislators must look at Hawaii's gun-owning citizens and laugh. I'm more inclined to cry... and be totally disgusted.

This is it peeps.
Forget about buying that fancy Tavor or SCAR. Won't matter if the City makes more stupid and failed policies like this. Give up that ONE Starbucks drink for this cause. One Panda plate.
So we have the govt. tracking law abiding citizens like us but who is monitoring the non law abiding ones? That's where they should be penalizing. The ones who break the law. Not us. We have done nothing wrong but WE keep taking the stereotype that since we have guns we are criminals. :grrr:

Doesn't  the wording "database" conflict directly with the federal FOPA law?

No word of them demanding you to surrender your other firearms and ammo?

Perhaps since it was due to a procedural denial (for a lack of a better term) as opposed to something related to criminal or mental health history "triggering" a confiscation?

I discussed this with a shop owner on an outer island. I suggested that I believed rap back was slowing December purchases. Store owner agreed. I wonder how long I can be content with what I own while we wait for litigation. I wish to contribute what I can soon.  Mahalo to London 808 and others active in this forum.
