Doesn't give much in the way of details. Sure would be nice to know more about the circumstances.

Just to point out. I've said this was a bad idea =p.

How this case is handled sets precedent for anyone else in the state that wants to do this.

It would be funny (not so much) if he says, I read on a forum that this was legal.

The saddest thing is how this is handled in Hawaii. Swat team, crisis negotiator.

I've seen YouTube videos of guys having entire shooting ranges on their property on the mainland.

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

It was after dark.  And the pic sure looks like a mug shot; he may not have been allowed to own firearms at all.

Near "kapahi park.." That's a pretty heavily populated area. Mother "F'r" was drunk. I got the info from a reliable source. But we all know how it's going to be played out in the media.

Well, they did arrest him :) so I'm betting that mugshot is very recent lol.

And he just happened to be wearing an orange jumpsuit when he was arrested?

Upon their arrival, the suspect was located firing a rifle from his yard.

Now, journalists aren't as precise with language as they ought to be, but there's a helluva difference between "in his yard" and "from his yard."  The "from" implies that the bullets were leaving his property, which qualifies for reckless endangerment.
