bullets don't fly

time flies like arrows as fruit flies like bananas

Some things don't add up. Guy states he heard a shot and took cover with his family between cars and was crying.  No one else in the area heard anything or took cover.

Granted, it could have been an empty lot, but if you've ever been to that Costco, it's always busy with people walking to their cars.

the article said saturday afternoon and super busy.

i thought it was weird that he heard a shot too, but hpd said it came from the sky.  if it came from 1 mile away, you'd think he'd only hear the glass shattering, and not also a gunshot.

My guess is that someone actually discharged a handgun somewhere in the area, maybe not the immediate vicinity.

Watch/read it again. He said he heard a loud sound, turned around, and his rear windshield was shattered. The sound he's describing is a single sound, that of shattering glass. It's more clear if you listen to the video clip; the punctuation in the writeup makes it ambiguous.

projectile could have come from a cop's firearm
we have the toughest gun laws in the country, so nobody is carrying around in public.  cops are the only ones carrying in public

This was a scare tactic to create fear and terror in the minds of Hawaii residents in the same week the right to carry was reaffirmed in the 9th circus.

Did anyone notice any Hawaii Kai residents in the area?  Maybe a middle age guy buying 150 lbs of cat food?

shouldn't, because this was the iwilei costco, not the HK one.  That's why its weird if the gun range was brought up.

The bullet was obviously shot from an assault straw.

The bullet looks pretty busted up.

I'm surprised the front of the bullet took that much damage.  I thought the petals would've stayed intact going through the rear glass.

yeah, like a whole bunch for going thru glass, even damaged on the side


 BTW, I've sifted a lot of bullets from the backstop to melt down for casting and I've never seen a discoloration on the bearing surface only.
I've never seen  such uneven discoloration on the bearing surface of a newly fired round.

I wouldn't mind examining the bullet.
How about slingshot an expended  round into the air towards Costco ?

I didn't want to mention any names.  You know how lawyers love to go after you for slander and such.
