EXCLUSIVE — Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen filed an amicus brief on Tuesday against Hawaii's law barring the carrying of firearms in so-called sensitive locations, which include the beach shores of the Aloha State.
U.S. District Judge Leslie Kobayashi, a Barack Obama appointee, granted a temporary restraining order on Aug. 8 against Hawaii's gun restrictions, finding that the broad scope of the state's new sensitive places restrictions on carrying lacked a basis in the historical tradition of gun regulation. Her ruling was one of several that have reevaluated gun laws across the country in the months since Bruen.
In the brief, the 17 attorneys general urge the 9th Circuit to uphold Kobayashi's decision striking down the prohibition on carrying firearms in sensitive places. Knudsen is backed by attorneys general in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Utah, West Virginia, and Wyoming.
In the wake of Bruen, states such as Hawaii, which is known for having some of the country's strictest gun laws, sought to pass legislation that made it easier to obtain a concealed carry permit but designated many locations as"sensitive locations" where carrying is prohibited, such as parks and beaches.
