>this is acceptable behavior for a state gov in the USA

Actually that's the way it should be. The second amendment -as well as the entire bill of rights- only originally applied to the Federal government and not to the States. It was only through a bastardized process of over reaching that it came to be applied to State government.

It is a base right along with 9 others in the bill of rights, deemed of such importance, that they are spelled out and explicitly granted in the constitution of this country, for the sole purpose of protecting them above all else throughout the nation

what are you even on about

LOL wut? What would those rights mean if the states could do whatever they want? The Bill of Rights is the minimum guarantee given. States may further protect certain rights, but the constitution is the so called "floor" or bare minimum when it comes to fundamental rights (like due process, for example).
All FUNDAMENTAL rights are incorporated to the states through the 14th amendment. If the 2nd amendment only applied to the Federal government then only people in D.C. get any protection.
>bastardized process
Literally 2 cases, D.C. v. Heller and McDonald v. Chicago, not that much to think about, Cleetus. Maybe if you had an education you'd be able to understand these things.

Exactly. Quite frankly I'm appalled there is a state in my union pulling this euro-totalitarianism bullshit

How do we fix this?

>>134010241
The bill of rights is a list of rights that a federal government explicitly promises to protect. If a state violates one of these rights it is the federal government's duty to ensure that the state fixes its shit.

what the fuck are you on? the bill of rights is a list of shit that the government can't do, retard.

>>134010241

The 2nd amendment specifically states that is a right reserved to the people.

I mean, I know it's got a low crime rate as long as you stay away from the homeless towns and camps, but this shit would infuriate me if I lived there

>but this shit would infuriate me if I lived there

It's one of my only major qualms.

Hobos aren't even bad here if you know how to deal with people on meth. I'll take them over DC crackheads.

The entire US constitution is a list of shit the government can't do. The major early criticisms of the constitution was that although it sought to limit the power of the government it made no assurances of the rights of the people. The bill of rights was a way to fix that.

It's time to meme a refugee dump to Hawaii

Can you not?

Asians already use it enough for trafficking.

>>134016719
Your judges keep allowing randoms from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen to travel to our country. Maybe we should just give up on trying to stop them, and make Hawaii great again by filling it up with refugee truck drivers

Hawaii is dope, I been there before. Good food, I just feel bad for you guys who can't defend yourselves. But like I said earlier at least your crime is low, you don't have black and hispanic gangs to fuck your shit up and your poor islanders keep to themselves in their own side of the island. Plus they have a culture of family and friendliness (aloha?) and in general aren't trying to cheat the system the way our mainland scum does
