If you had p's in Hawaii, that means you must have connections. Hence you must have known the laws.

Everything that is worth keeping is illegal there.
 
Smuggle in a bunch of black rays and let them loose..

Hawaii could have a new cash crop and sell the rays to the US for $500/ea and everyone could finally afford them.

Hey! Better than exporting Maui Wowie!
