This is why more people need to go out and vote.  Get rid of the law makers that impede our RIGHT to bear arms.  

With that said, I think that more gun owners need to take personal responsibility and actually take some sort of training to properly use a firearm.  Seeing so many using "hunter education" as the training requirement may be part of the problem.  The current Hawaii Hunter Education Course does not include any handling of firearms.  Heck, as recently as 2 years ago, there weren't any guns in the classroom!  :-(  
I've seen many people at the shooting range struggling with their firearms while committing serious safety violations (flagging, finger in trigger guard, etc.). 
Unlike in the early days of our country, firearms training is no longer commonly done with all members of the household.  
Lack of training is hindering the expansion of our firearms freedoms here in Hawaii.
