"... explaining that, as a cop, he is also “outraged at how easy it is to get a gun, no questions asked.”" Geez. I musta missed that episode. Oh, wait. I've never seen an episode of the new improved Hawaii 5-0. STFU Dan-O. Sound like the comments by some of the liberal cops that bloomberg has "starring" in the "vote yes on question 1" here in Nevada. And probably some of the "gun owners" also "starring" in similar ads. VOTE NO ON QUESTION 1 IN NEVADA!

Liberals insert political propaganda into entertainment.

They feel so insecure about their beliefs they have to push it where its not wanted.

Cultural dominance doesn’t allow the Left to rest easy.

Crappy show. Quit watching after a couple of episodes - the remake novelty wore off quickly.

The original show strayed into this territory sometimes, too. Back then, Jack Lord had a lot of creative control over the show, so it’s likely that the anti-gun content was his idea.

This is a sad excuse for an update of a classic series. More liberal agitprop.

I am sure there are no private sales in the state of Hawaii. Everyone must purchase from a ATF approved FFL holder and fill out form 4473. Many questions asked.

How come no one defended themselves with a gun? Answer: the state has discouraged private firearms ownership and outlawed carry outside the home. The state created the problem. Now they propose solutions already in effect. More of the same will not fix. It’s like fixing obamacare. Just end it and the state interference to private action.

The original Hawaii 5-0 was also very anti gun.

Two groups of people that should stay out of politics, Hollywood producers and Popes.

And networks won der why their ratings suck. Why affiliates put up with cr@p is beyond me.

A bit unrelated, but who here remembers the series “Hawaiian Eye”? Was it just as good or even better than the original “Five-O”? If my memory serves me properly, it was an early feature for Connie Stevens.

Did they cover the shooter’s previously diagnosed mental disorders, the pills he was prescribed, the pot and other drugs he was abusing in addition to his prescribed meds he didn’t always take?

Did they cover the FBI and police files on is violent threats and outburts and prior infractions that were brushed aside to “give him another chance”?

Did they cover how he targeted those who identified as Christians?

I mean if they are going to tackle the issue of rampage shootings they should cover ALL of the bases and not just the “gun nuts” angle.

Another show to cross off my list. Might as well ditch the whole tv at this point.

The supposedly clever banter that goes on between the two lead cops in the show is downright laughable. Really eye rolling stupid. My wife watches this show and during last nights show she looked at me and started laughing. Off it went to another channel.

Decades ago sniper tried to blame his real life shooting spree on an episode of the original 5-O. Jury didn’t buy it.

I loved the original series, but in that also McGarrett was constantly preaching gun control.

I thought the series "Hawaii 50" ended decades ago.

Liberal shiite inserted, but main character straightens the like leftist puke out.

The original Hawaii 5-0 of forty years ago was very anti-handgun as were most of the detective shows of that time. Jack Lord was in favor of confiscating all handguns and his show was used for a platform to spew that anti-gun line.

His Stony Burk was not so anti-gun.

The original Hawaii 5-0 was just as bad. In fact, essentially all cop shows are anti-gun. I believe I have never seen a cop show story line that involved a private citizen engaged in legitimate self defense.
