…except, it seems, in Honolulu.
Three people were killed and two others injured in a shooting at a home stemming from a dispute between neighbors on Saturday night in Waianae, a west Oahu community. The shooter was also fatally shot by a resident…
So far, so good. But
…who was then arrested on a second-degree murder charge, police said.
And the cops’ response?
“In Hawaii, we are a non ‘stand your ground’ state. Even if you have a license to carry, if you’re an individual that discharges a firearm that is involved in injuring another person, … you’re going to be arrested.”
As RedState’s Jim Thompson points out, that’s not what Hawaii’s actual law states. Looks like this asshole cop needs a swift ball-kicking some education on the law. Or maybe he just thinks he’s British.
At least Our Hero has since been released, but there’s no telling what will happen to him next.
Where’s the Imperial Japanese Navy when you really need them?
