HI: Lieutenant Governor Doug Chin announces his request for legal opinion regarding gun law

Lieutenant Governor Doug Chin announced Friday that he’s requesting a legal opinion from the State Attorney General to clarify the authority of county police chiefs to issue licenses permitting individuals to carry unconcealed firearms.

“I care deeply about public safety and it’s very important that we uphold Hawai‘i firearm laws for everyone’s benefit, ” Lt. Governor Chin said.

In July 2018 the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals sided with a Big Island resident that the Second Amendment affords the right to openly carry a gun in public for self-defense.

Smell mah shorts.

The federal appellate court's opinion trumps the state atty general's opinion. This is a waste of time intended to grab political headlines in the socialist belief that a plebiscite can overcome any constitutional guarantee. It doesn't matter if even 99% of Hawaiians want a total ban on publicly bearing arms because the Constitution protects that right, black letter.

The court has ruled, and even if an en banc 9th Circuit reverts to its ridiculous shenaningans, the likelihood of it succeeding at the SCOTUS is overwhelming. (Kavanaugh will be there before Oct. 1st.)

Accept defeat and move on. Oh, and repent your unconstitutional ways while you're at it. (You friggin' leftist PIGS, you.)
