A federal judge has blocked the state of Hawaii from enforcing a recently enacted ban on firearms on its prized beaches and in other areas including banks, bars and parks, citing last year's landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling expanding gun rights.

      Yep I hope to see more gun rights precedents set by this SC. It’s the one thing that’s good about that court now

      You should need a reason to bring a gun to a beach. You are likely not carrying it unless you are clothed and never go into the water. Do you really think people are going to stay at the beach wearing a holster the whole time?

              You don’t see how carrying or not carrying matters? So you can just leave a gun anywhere you like in a public space? Like where a kid or a crazy person could just pick it up if they saw it? And even if that’s legal, you think that should be legal?

                Gonna go out on a limb and guess that letting a random kid get a hold of your weapon is illegal, and would land you in quite a bit of trouble.

                    Idk, do you want them to be executed or something? I’m guessing if a child were to get a hold of your weapon and something happened you’d be looking at jail time.
