I say there are 5 possibilities for who did this:
  1. Schizoid NEET, like the one at Kyoto Animation Tragedy
  2. Pacifist who hates the rearming of Japan, especially since Abe is responsible for it
  3. An extreme ultranationalist, yes there are people even more right than Abe and co
  4. People who hates the current inflation and economic downturn in Japan, and blamed them to the LDP
  5. Yakuza

Nothing says "biggu braindo" like a pacifist blowing a fucking politician away with a shotgun. I'm praying for that to be the motive just for the irony of it.

The smoke cloud looks like black powder which is easy enough to make if you get charcoal, sulfur, and potassium nitrate. Looks like he just has two pipes taped together so maybe it's a blunderbuss of some sort. No need for shotgun shells or hulls.
I'm thinking it's not a slam shotgun like some were thinking earlier in the thread because the shots didn't go off at the same time.

It's made of some sort of pipe. You can see the two pipe endcaps.

Pipe guns aren't hard to make in theory, but he fired twice and there was a pause for a pump. Either the kid was smart enough to make a pump action pipe gun or he cut the barrel off a hunting permit.

I know nothing about the nuts and bolts of reloading. Considering ammo is almost as banned as guns themselves are, how hard would it be to make working homemade shells? Cardboard hull, homemade primers, black powder?


Retards do retarded things. News at 11.

Not hard at all really. Single use shotguns can be made with pretty simple materials.

If we assume homemade ammo, maybe had a bad strike on the first slam?

Easiest way, considering he'd never need to reload, is an electrically fired muzzelloader. I'm pretty sure there is some amount of hunting in Japan, so shells DO exist,
If using commercial shells, just load them and use a firing pin.
If reloading, you can get primer and gunpowder from nail gun blanks or rivet setters.
If making from scratch, make black powder (literally charcoal, sulfur, and saltpeter... really common chemicals) and electrically ignite.

Hunting is one of the only few legal ways you can get a gun in Japan. That said, the permits are known to be very strict

There's no need for a 3d printer. Making a shitty shotgun the same traditional hardware store way is cheaper and easier.

Exactly, assuming the Diablo sawnoff isn't the weapon as mentioned above, chamber pressures in a shotgun can actually be quite low especially with shot loaded hulls.

This is most evident in older shotguns before every PI lawyer and their cat realized suing the pants off gun companies is fun, I've seen it on old ithacas, those barrels had thin-ass walls even at the chamber.

Not that I'd suggest building a hardware store pipe based shotgun, but it's far easier than with 99% of guns that shoot proper bullets.

Get spent cases from a buddy to reload, since he's obviously using a homemade gun. Or maybe used rounds are unregulated and buy them as a curio

2019, in July, Kazuki Takahashi (sent to the graveyard yesterday) posted this piece of art urging his fans to vote and (hopefully) oust Shizō Abe whom he's dissatisfied with... According to the article below anyway.

I guess a graveyard effect was indeed activated. So who was Abe linked to?

No love lost over on Weibo, where Chinese nationalists are currently celebrating and calling the gunman a hero.

"Anti-Japanese hero??"
"What are you doing, applaud!"
"Is the gun okay?"

Most significantly, you lose the right to privacy; Japanese police can visit your home at any time to inspect your firearms (one of which is that your ammo and gun is kept in a non-portable safe drilled into the residence).

The police might start to raid all the homes of people with registered firearms.

can some oriental please translate what his last words in the speech are?

I don't speak Japanese at all, but, from what I could make out by ear, it sounded like, at one point in the video, Abe said "Souiu handan shita. Kare wa dekinai", which, according to Google, means "I made that decision. He can't". Considering there's an election in Japan this Sunday, it would seem he was talking about his record as Prime Minister and claiming the rival party would be unable to exercise similar judgment. Then again, I could just be absolutely wrong and none of this is what he actually said, but at least that's what I was able to hear.
