Everytown is spamming the Civil Beat comments

Yeah Fred_Garvin & ddperry, the Ben & Jerry of moron Marxist propaganda.

“It’s Pat - Time for Androgyny” - is what comes to mind when it comes to them …

At least the original Nazi’s had the decency not to scream “Fascist!” as they shoot you for being an American.

Thanks to all who are donating and donating again.

HRA at the gun show was able to raise another $1,000 for the lawsuit.

HRA has been a major supporter of this lawsuit, to include paying for court and briefing costs in the past.  Kainoa was busy getting donations this weekend.

Odds the legislature modifies the law and moots the case? What strategy if they do this?

pretty much 100%
they don't want to take the loss at the supreme court because that would set precedent across the country
and they know it screws the lawyers out of compensation...

If they moot this, there is no other strategy.  But they would also have to moot this at the county of Honolulu level too.

At some point they are going to overplay the moot game and the conspiracy to deprive rights will itself become the issue
If the news was lying to me I would have heard about it on the news.

A prior SCOTUS 2A appeal versus New York was ruled moot, but the timeline was much longer.  SCOTUS granted cert in January 2019.  Law was changed May 2019.  And SCOTUS opinion was issued April 2020.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_State_Rifle_%26_Pistol_Ass%27n_v._City_of_New_York

For Wolford, SCOTUS granted cert Oct 2025 and the opinion is expected in April-June 2026.  The Hawaii legislature starts in the middle of January and normally could get a law enacted as soon as May.  If they really rush it, it could be out late March.

The other difference is New York's law was old while Hawaii's law was just changed two years ago by the same legislature and Governor.  They'd have to admit they were wrong in passing it back in 2023 and that they're gaming the system.

Thanks for greater context here! - they'd have to introduce the bill to repeal relatively soon, so it doesn't seem we have long to wait to see what they plan on doing, either way.

One can never count out their arrogance and hatred of the Constitution though:  They believe Hawaii is THEIR sovereign third-world country, which just so happens to be entitled to suck huge economic benefits from the United States - like a state of the Union - but is not at all bound to honor their citizen's rights as Americans.

Being forced to backtrack from this sickness and corruption goes against every fibre of their twisted beings - even more so given that Trump & Bondi put some "english" on the pitch.

If there are any doubts about this - just reread Eddins 10th grade paper on the "Aloha Spirit."

As a result - I agree - preemptive repeal is likely not something they'd just automatically and pragmatically hop right on.

It'd burn them like Holy Water.

At least the original Nazi’s had the decency not to scream “Fascist!” as they shoot you for being an American.

I would love to see comrade Karl support the new bill repealing this and the look on the vets and all the anti 2a peoples faces.

Yeah!

Can you Imagine the hang-dog look on the faces of the Mom's Demand Action dogs?

I still can't forget that St. Bernard in a red shirt they had tied up there on the 2rd floor all session last year - damn that was a sour-looking dog.
