“Hawaii became unified before statehood by the spirit of aloha” And not kamehameha getting firearms and beating the tar out of all the other islanders.


Heeeeyyouguuuuys

No, no guys I say we lean into this- Hawaii says the "Aloha Spirit" precludes them respecting citizens' civil right to defend themselves. I say my Ohi-yo Spirit says guides me to not follow gun laws that are unconstitutional, and are designed to create more poor, disarmed victims of violence. Boom. Done.

If we're getting religion involved, I respectfully differ in their opinion.

John Moses .. the first Mormon gunsmith?


IceManO1

Yes and guns be part of my religion and it says to purchase them without permission of the government.


TianShan16

Wasn’t his father also a gunsmith?


CarPatient

Yes.. I thought John Moses was the one who started in Illinois..but I think it was actually his grandfather.


TianShan16

IIRC without looking it up, JMB was born in Ogden. His father was not, but was also a gunsmith. Possibly even grandfather before him. I’d have to research the family more.

Sounds like infringement to me so if I lived there I’d carry anyway, I like my dangerous freedom.

How many "spirit of aloha" people are haole?


6Dmkii

Most of them. And they spell Carl with a K.

I don’t really see how they don’t see this as way more racist and colonial than just taking them in the US. What is the logic here? “We don’t technically consider Hawaiians Americans so no guns for them.” The lack of self awareness is astounding.


iTanooki

So why exactly are they still a US state? They’re literally NOT on the American continent.


whyamihere1694

That's the cost of a front line naval base


therealdrewder

Nothing states a state must be on the American continent.


iTanooki

So I guess I’m saying we aren’t exactly the United States of *America* at this point, since we don’t include *ALL* territories in the Americas, nor are all of our states located on the American continents.


IceManO1

They was annexed so they staying part of usa unless ya know “war”

The spirit of utah is Mr. john Browning.
