        It’s because the politicians want the people to protect them, after they have consistently failed to protect the people.

        I don’t think so. It happened in the Hawaii state legislature. They don’t run on the same incentives over there.

          Hawaii’s Democratic Party spans from the left to the right. The only people who get elected as Republicans are the truly insane.

          But generally, Hawaii supports strict gun laws, so this seems like a surprising result.

        It’s because it’s not the issue, nor should time be wasted on that right now. We can argue policy later. We need to unite and get the traitor out of office

      The Republicans are actually secret geniuses, they are doing all this authoritarian stuff to trick the left into embracing guns.

      Nah.
