Some stats and facts to keep in mind when it comes time to submit testimony on any bills bearing on self-defense, you know like those old white guys wrote about in the Bill of Rights.

WARNING, this is a long article/report with a lot of images but I am confident it is worth your time!

A couple of examples of the charts/graphs. Of course no matter how much higher-quality evidence we submit in testimony, the results here in the Hawaii legislature are pretty much foregone conclusions.

This is a lie and fabricated.  I do not believe that an armed citizen can make a difference.  I was taught to call the police and wait for them to respond and help the situation.
