The Hawaii Supreme Court has upheld the gun-carry conviction of Christopher Wilson, affirming that there is no state constitutional right to carry a firearm in public. This ruling, which reversed the dismissal of Wilson's charges for carrying without a permit, directly challenges the U.S. Supreme Court's precedents set by Heller and Bruen by suggesting that the 'Aloha Spirit' is incompatible with the Second Amendment's individual right interpretation. The decision, which has cited the TV series 'The Wire' in its reasoning, has been met with criticism and predictions that it will be overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.
I have now read State v. Wilson-the Hawaiin Supreme Court decision stating there is no individual right to bear arms that lambasts Bruen. It is as if the Alabama Supreme Court was writing about Brown v. Bd. of Ed. in 1955. It is what a one party woke judiciary looks like.

The Hawaii Supreme Court has made a mistake–narrowing a right in the U.S. Constitution–that the U.S. Supreme Court can and should correct. The state supreme court justices are as unpersuasive on history as they are in their attempt to distinguish the Wilson case from Bruen in… https://t.co/ltkXpRNEvR

Does this mean police officers in Hawaii will no longer carry guns? How about the Hawaii National Guard? U.S. military personnel stationed in Hawaii? Security guards? What other constitutionally protected rights will be abrogated as incompatible with “the spirit of aloha?” https://t.co/8nZHdzPWr3

I don't know who needs to hear this but what the Hawaiian Supreme Court did is one of the reasons the second amendment exists in the first place. So that the state can't take away your God given right to self-defense. This ruling will be overturned pretty quickly.
