They don't have to follow the law!
" Hawaii's Supreme Court refused to follow U.S. Supreme Court precedent on gun rights in an opinion released on Wednesday, declaring that "the spirit of Aloha clashes" with the Second Amendment, which guarantees Americans an individual right to bear arms."
" The declaration was made in a decision ruling that a man charged with carrying a firearm without a permit in the state back in 2017 could still be held criminally for that infraction despite a recent Supreme Court decision, New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc. v. Bruen, that ruled that New York's concealed-carry application system was unconstitutional."
"Its decision was based on the Court's interpretation of Article I, Section 17 of Hawaii's constitution, which "mirrors the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution."
"We read those words differently than the current United States Supreme Court. We hold that in Hawai'i there is no state constitutional right to carry a firearm in public," began the Court at the top of its opinion before going on to assert that "the spirit of Aloha clashes with a federally-mandated lifestyle that lets citizens walk around with deadly weapons during day-to-day activities."

How cute: they think their spirit of Aloha (whatever that is) means that they get to ignore the Constitution.
