Crazy. Many possibilities of what the shooter may be.

Abe will sadly be about one of ten people in Japan this year who will die this year from a gunshot wound. In the US we are lucky if we can go an hour without 10 people getting shot
And most of those are conducted with illegal firearms in urban cities with strict gun control laws. You aren’t making the point you think you are chief.

I don’t even think the West wakes up if the shooter is a Chinese agent. We’re asleep at the wheel. Nothing is waking us up with this administration

His point is pretty clear Japan’s gun laws are a pretty big reason why their gun deaths are so low

Also I’m not going to make my assumptions on the Chinese citizens based entirely on some app. I mean imagine if some European person believed that every American was just like the average PT poster
You do know that neither the Chinese nor the
Japanese give each other that benefit of the doubt, right? It’s not like us going and getting shitfaced with Germans and the Poles. The Chinese and the Japanese truly hate each other on a near level as Israelis and Palesintians do. They truly hate one another and will not be caught dead around one another except when necessary.
They’re not like us and Europeans. They truly hate one another with a passion. We do not have that relationship with any other nation, at least a mutual one. China has a soft spot for us since we nuked Japan and they find that hilarious.

It looks like, by reports from legit Japanese sources, that he's a 42 year old Japanese guy.

Since it got posted at the bottom of the previous page, I’ll reiterate:

It’s not like Abe didn’t have any number of domestic enemies or enemies within his own party, let alone the possibility of a random, nutjob schizo. Considering the implications, *direct* Chinese involvement is probably one of the least likely scenarios.
I’ll add that Abe probably pissed off the South Koreans as much as the Chinese.

South Koreans are mad about the imperial flag but I highly doubt they’d be willing to do something this stupid

So some random radical?

NHK: The weapon was "handmade" per police
Posted on 7/7/22 at 11:39 pm to dawgfan24348
According to Japanese news the gun was likely handmade

I know nothing about Japan but surprised they have shotguns

Arch Ferdinand 2.0. Mark my words. Abe was the biggest anti communist guy Asia. Wasn’t afraid of CCP

I’m not sure if I agree, but I can’t dismiss him. Of disastrous people to assassinate that could start WWIII, Abe is certainly in the Top 10. Honestly I think Boris being assassinated by a communist radical would not be as big of a threat of that happening as this.
