Thanks to the stupid gun laws of Hawaii, it depends where I am at the moment.

Elderly people like me and my wife.  We are at an extreme disadvantage when out and about.  The CCW laws here in our banana republik is geared where I make one mistake and pau, I am a criminal.

I keep thinking of that elderly couple a while back while vacationing in Vegas.  The lady died.

I almost always have a can of pepper spray because I'm old and refuse to jump through ccw hoops.
Also, I've carried on the mainland and found out that it is a PITA.
For the most part, I just avoid going to sketchy parts of town and stay in condition yellow when I go shopping at night.

The killers drove from CA and she was alone in the fashion show parking lot, near the entry doors from lot to mall. Her husband 4got his mask in the car and went back to get it, which is why she was alone.

Ccwing in vegas is easy, no sensitive places. Casinos can ban it if they see u ccwing, but its not illegal.

Oh oh.  Our government is going to require safety classes ($$$), a mental evaluation from your primary physician, a competency test ($$$$), and a license fee ($$$$$$$) plus a serial number assigned to your doggy.

Oh yeah.  2 passport photos of you and your doggy.  One doggie per CCD (concealed carry doggie).

Open carry is free.
