Government officials, you have a duty to protect the safety and welfare of the public from illegal activities that threaten us and that continue to elude the police departments, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and other law enforcement. You have a duty to exercise the police powers vested in you by the Hawaii State Constitution to end this threat that has touched the most vulnerable in our community and has continued for years to infringe upon the rights of law-abiding citizens.
