Another shooting??
« on: September 04, 2023, 10:32:44 AM »
I see that there was another shooting incident, Last evening in Waipahu according to HNN
I thought all these laws were supposed to put a stop to all this :crazy:
A couple of takeaways we can probably count on:

The perp did NOT have a concealed carry permit.
They didn't say, but its a good chance it occurred in a "sensitive place" No guns allowed.
The firearm in question was not legally obtained, and probably not registered, at least to the shooter.
Purely conjecture cuz nobody is talking, the Perp was probably a prohibited person.
This was not a random thing. The shooter and shootee were acquainted and had issues.
Oh, and the shooter needs practice. He missed.

Howcome none of that stuff ever makes the news?
Aloha

Cause no fit their agenda?

They want to paint law abiding citizens that choose to legally CCW (despite Hawaii's despicable gun laws) as criminals, the same as those who choose to disobey laws, which in my opinion is the case here.

They know the people involved were not law abiding CCW citizens.  So no media coverage.  Move along, folks, nothing to see here.
Sometimes you gotta know when to save your bullets.

Be careful in the absence of information.  Most of the times it's criminals.  But once in a while it's a legit self defense.  CCW licenses and firearms registration shouldn't be required and sensitive places shouldn't exist.

I read somewhere that the incident took place down in the pupus.
(That's the rough part of town.)

The very first time I drove in that area, I looked around and said to my wife, "What the h--- is this?"
What, Me Worry?

The lack of info from the main stream press is intentional. The info that the media omits
from their reporting is criminal. Any facts that do not fit the political narrative is very
likely to be deleted from the news. A good example of this was Biden's visit to Lahaina.
There were a lot of people who were PO with Brandon. Some gave his motorcade the one
finger salute. Others were upset with his tardy appearance since he took a vacation
before he visited Maui 3 weeks later. The $700 limit per household in FEMA money
was insulting to many, etc... Much of this was covered by other sources such as:
Sky news, tictok, youtube.

If I were a news reporter, I wouldn't go down to the pupus to file a news story.

Nowadays some news reporters have to go out alone (no camerman or assistant)
Not a good idea.

I agree. I would think hard about even going to a gun shop in the area.
That said, yes... omission in the news is a powerful tool.
I would love to be a fly on the wall in the back room where what goes or doesn't is decided.

You are right about the bad places in this state OF. I would not go there on my own.
Even the so called good parts of the state are questionable especially at night.
I would hope that a few brave reporters would seek out help and apply for a CCW
but that would absolutely be dream world stuff.

The anti gun agenda that affects our local news rooms goes waaay back in time.
Any of you oldsters remember newsman Tim Tindall and his anti gun boss Bob
Seavey? I recall an incident where Tim was holding a rifle and he remarked:
"If only my boss could see me now." Tim had to toe the line as long as Seavey
was his boss. Seavy would refuse to air any story that portrayed fire arms in a
good light. He would growl:THAT'S NOT NEWS! when a pro gun story was presented
to him.

Cool stats from three penultimate gun control countries:  China, USSR, Cambodia.   Total number of civilians executed, starved to death, just plain killed by their governments:  150 MILLION !!!  Do we give up our guns?
