Text and Video of Testimony: HPD Hearing on Gun Registration Rules
By Video @ 5:23 PM :: 3397 Views :: Honolulu County, Police, Second Amendment

From HIFICO, Oct 5, 2022

The written testimony submitted to the Honolulu Police Department is now available on their website.

You will see a large amount of form letter submissions. This is where an organization makes a webpage that allows people to type in a name and submit a copy paste email without actually knowing what you are sending.

We could have also done this, but made a choice not to. We want to make sure that the testimony submitted is genuine. A vast majority of the people that submit form letters have no idea what they are submitting or even understand what it means. They simply click the button because they were asked to.

We all know that if we had of submitted using a form, the number of testimonies would likely have been into the hundreds of thousands, if not millions. Garnering support from second amendment supporters nationwide.

ITS TIME TO SHOW UP:

from Hawaii Firearms Coalition, Sept 5, 2022

On October 4th the police chief (Honolulu) is having a hearing to set his rules on our right to bear arms.

Some of the proposed rules are illogical, others are impractical and a vast majority are unconstitutional.

Honolulu (and Hawaii in general) are still treating the second amendment as a bastardized right.

These rules make it clear that they still feel that they get to decided who gets to bear arms and how. These rules have nothing to do with public safety and serve only to infringe, delay and dissuade on the rights of its people.

Below is a copy of the notice regarding the hearing and a copy a link to the proposed rules.

We will be releasing more details and are thoughts as we get close to the date. But this is the time to start asking for the day off work and be ready to show up.
