Guam Leg passes "Shall Issue," on Gov's desk

The measure, Senate Bill 296-32 , will remove the restrictive ‘extreme cause’ language from the territory’s laws that currently restricts permits from otherwise deserving applicants who cannot show that their life is in immediate danger. The bill will require the Chief of the Guam Police Department to issue permits to any resident applicant who is over 21, can satisfy a background check, and desires a legal means of carrying a firearm for self-defense.
...Currently the Guam Police Department only issues permits at the discretion of the chief and commonly denies most, with fewer than 50 issued per year across the territory.

Allegedly the "tipped over" was what some liberal congress critter said would happen to Guam if we moved the Marines and USAF currently in Okinawa to Guam, that Guam could not handle it and could sink
