  • Aloha State Daily | State Legislature poised to pass sweeping weapons ban

    By Michael Brestovansky Verified| Aloha State Daily@ A bill to outlaw the sale of "assault rifles" is on the verge of passage in the Hawai‘i Legislature, despite wide opposition by gun advocates. Senate Bill 401 proposes to ban the purchase or sale of “assault rifles” and “assault shotguns” in the state after July 8. While such weapons purchased and registered before July 8 would remain legal, those guns could not be again sold within the state. The bill has generated substantial opposition from gun owners statewide.

Between this evening and Friday morning, a lunar eclipse — when the full moon enters the Earth’s shadow, making it appear red — will be visible from most of North America and Hawaii. But while most viewers in the U.S. will need to stay up late or wake up early to catch the event, Hawaii residents will be able see the total eclipse begin and end before bedtime.
