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.

    Well if its public land, then I don’t see why not. You don’t need a reason to carry.

      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?

          Again- are they really carrying or are they leaving their gun on the beach while they go into the water?

              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.

                  Oh, well as long as it will land you in trouble. What other consequences could there be?

                    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.

      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

        Yes this great “injustice” of not being able to take guns with me everywhere must be corrected.
