If that happens I think everyone who owns a paintball gun would have to submit to Rapback sans bounty hunters

"The police commission won't reveal the names of those selected to serve on the panel until they've made their recommendations to the commission."
WTF

"Sword said that's to prevent any outside pressure. "   He prefers to stick with internal corruption, what a doofus.

It's worked so well all these years, why rock the boat?

I'd like to see each prospective panelist be required to reveal 1. Whether or not they would like to be "granted the privilege" of carrying a firearm in public for the purpose of self-defense, and 2. Whether or not they themselves would like to exercise the "right to bear arms", if they would demand of a police chief that he comply with the constitutions of the U.S. and Hawaii (until permitless carry exists here  ) and issue licenses (open and concealed) on a "shall issue" basis.

Of course 1. We'll never know what their views on that are, and 2. Even if we knew (they support the existing system of "no issue"?) it wouldn't make any difference, and 3. Even if they all supported "shall issue" THAT wouldn't make any difference either because the shots are being called from above and no advisory board, police commission, or likely even chief of police has any say in the matter. I'd say that we need elected sheriffs, like most counties in the rest of the United States, but here we'd just get more progressive socialist civilian disarmament advocates as sheriffs.

Hope Nanci Kreidman of the Domestic Violence Action Center does not make that board.

Why have another panel?  Isn't that what the police commission's job is supposed to be?  #passingthebuck

Well, the police commission still makes the final decision, they just get a paired down list of candidates from the panel, more like #doublesecretprobation.
