The voters of Hawaii don’t care about guns because it was never in their culture. The most populated island-Oahu has little to no hunting. A few people hunt pig, but that is it.
Crime in Hawaii is a lower level of violence than the mainland, so there is no pressing need to own a handgun.
Voters in Hawaii will vote Democrat, no matter what. It has nothing to do with liberalism or conservatism. It has to do with the history of the Democrat party during the plantation days , and lots of Union and gimme dat voters.
Thanks for the feedback.
“Crime in Hawaii is a lower level of violence than the mainland, so there is no pressing need to own a handgun.”
Unless you are a haole getting the s*** beat out of him by the bruddahs.

OMG did you actually just say that!?
Are you saying that no one in Hawaii has even been assaulted, raped, or robbed?
Any level of criminal violence is sufficient to justify arming oneself, if one so chooses!
"No pressing need?"
Being a Free American is a "pressing" enough need to at least maintain the option of deciding to own a handgun, without being automatically registered by the government.
Everyone knows that registration is the first step towards confiscation. That principle will never change. Saying there "no pressing need" is tantamount to saying that one should expect to defend themselves with their bare hands, if criminally assaulted. Or should people be required to use a spear like King Kamehameha wielded?
I'm sorry, but "no pressing need" is a classic argument of the authoritarian anti-gun crowd. It's why the middle class denizens of New York City are denied carry permits, and are therefore left at the mercy of criminals.
Now, even though there are doubtless fewer criminals in Hawaii, I would rather not be at the mercy of even one of them...
Vote Trump!
