    Isn't LEOSA illegal in Hawaii now due to their changes? Wouldn't be surprised if other places tried it.

    Folks,

    No state can nullify LEOSA as it's Federal law, passed by Congress to apply to all the states, Federal Districts and territories. While some assclown operations may try to jam you up, they do it at their peril since it is bright line law and there is also a body of case law confirming that.

    Are Railroad cops not covered by LEOSA?

    Unfortunately Hawaii specifically states if you are not on official duty they will not consider you an officer. And they disregard the law in regard to jhp and mag capacity. Who wants to be the test case?

    I didn't think so. Nor are private university police.

    The only thing I've read that might be close had to do with riding the commuter trains for free. Current, uniformed, on-duty local cops could still ride free but out of the area, off-duty, retired could not.

    It depends. AMTRAK police (along with police of the Federal Reserve) were added in the 2010 amendment.

    We tell our guys every year to avoid states like NJ, NY, Kali, etc. Every year it seems like I’m adding another state to the list to avoid...adding Hawaii, not that I’d ever go. LEOSA is indeed a “bright line” law but I tell them not to be a test case.
