Hawaii court says 'spirit of Aloha' supersedes Constitution, Second Amendment

The Supreme Court of Hawaii has ruled that carrying a gun in public without a permit can lead to prosecution, overturning a lower court ruling.

Hawaii Attorney General Anne Lopez called the ruling a "landmark decision" that upholds gun-safety legislation.
