Can law enforcement temporarily confiscate firearms in situations of imminent danger in Hawaii?

Yes
No
Yes, but only with a court order
Yes, but only during a state of emergency

The correct answer is: Yes

Law enforcement officers in Hawaii are authorized to temporarily confiscate firearms in situations where there is imminent danger. This means that if a person is deemed to be a threat to themselves or others, law enforcement can take their firearms away temporarily for the safety of all individuals involved. This confiscation does not require a court order or a state of emergency. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect as they imply that there are additional requirements for law enforcement to temporarily confiscate firearms.
