Shinzo Abe Assassination

[mindlessobserver]

Pretty sure he's Japanese. Looks like a complete fucking dork as well. What are his motives? Was he one card short to summon... fucks sake I'll stop.

Whatever he was, everything went as planned.

 

[Aib Ld]

What's the holdup on updating his condition? I'm betting he's already dead from how long he stayed as 'cardiac arrest'/unconfirmed death.

 

[CarlosDanger]

It's just so fucking random. To go to that much effort to kill a retired politician...

He wasn't really retired, he is still one of the major players in the biggest political party in Japan. The Japanese have an election in three days and he was out campaigning for his party.

I've met niggers with more empathy.

What's with the Ukrainian colors in the PFP though?

These are the same people who cook animals alive because they think the pain makes the meat taste better.

Let's not pretend there aren't people masturbating furiously as they dream up scenarios to kill Orange Man or Obama.

By the look of the security Abe had, a ninja could have lopped his head off and ran away no problem.

Yeah, with a ninja you'll have a flip-out, not a shoot-out.

 

[AltisticRight]

Don't have to since the citizens of Japan aren't even allowed any firearms to kill each other with. This guy had to make his own.

Japan has insane gun control, with the number of guns in the US (basically infinitely more), 309 looks meh.

Also those deaths include law enforcement use, usually justified; suicide; and self defence use. So it's exaggerated. In China, you can stab a violent rapist to death rightfully so. No different to shooting the fucker.

Abe and the Reunification church have apparently been at odds with each other as of late. The likelihood of the guy who shot him being a part of the cult is low considering he's supposedly a NEET.

Could be a China sympathizer, especially a One China sympathizer. Abe was such a strong supporter of Taiwan.

Yeah, one (1) shooting assassination from a hikkikomori with a 3D printed/homemade gun (and less than 10 gun deaths a year) vs 309 shootings in the US in 5 months says a lot about gun control's efficacy.

How many Chicago chimpouts would you trade for a head of state? Because it's not like 309 congresspeople are shot. Abe getting assassinated is like a former president getting got, or a SCOTUS justice, in terms of impact/status.

Abe isn't atop the global empire.

They probably won't announce anything for the next 12 hours minimum.

"CIA" should be an option in the poll.

Here's a similar design.

Never thought I'd see a true blue eoka used in a modern day assassination.

This is the type of shit that starts wars so Abe better not have started WW3 by dying on us. Japs are not gonna take this lying down and heads are definitely gonna roll.

 

[AltisticRight]

As a native English speaker, cardiac arrest means the nigga is dead without immediate help and ability to revive. His heart stopped. Cardiac failure is shit that old people go through.

It's a popular ritualistic thing to do with people of significance in Asian culture, to attempt to rescue them even though they are 99.999...% going to die. China did it with Dr. Li Wenliang who was reprimanded for investigating a SARS like virus I'm sure no one fucking cares about anymore.

Even with the YGO jokes, it's pretty clear this guy was not a member of normal (Japanese) society, especially if he knew and had enough time to build a gun and make a plan to kill Abe.
He's definitely a NEET Hikkikkomori. The question is if he's a cultist, activist or just a garden variety lunatic like the Kyoani arsonist. I don't think he's a Yakuza.

Crazy fucking world.

Jesus, even the westerners who are against his values on Twitter trying to celebrate are at least keeping a lid on it somewhat.

 

[HarblMcDavid]

Can't wait for people to claim Japanese gun crime is now the same as America's just because some retard managed to cobble something resembling one together in his mother's basement. It's hardly even a gun if you had to duct tape all that shit together.

Yeah, one (1) shooting assassination from a hikkikomori with a 3D printed/homemade gun (and less than 10 gun deaths a year) vs 309 shootings in the US in 5 months says a lot about gun control's efficacy.

Well in a country that confiscated civilian arms so many years ago nobody alive when it happened exists, and has no significant cultural or historical precedent for ubiquitous civilian arms ownership, sure, it can "work".

Not really because of the laws in any meaningful way, after all this chucklefuck made himself a 10 year/$250k destructive device and killed a PM with it just fine, but because the entire country basically agrees nobody should own any guns so they're all on the same page.

The entire USA absolutely does not believe anything remotely like this though, despite the best efforts of every dishonest sophist 'cross the land attempting to make people think they do.

That said

You have to account for the nigger factor before comparing gun crime in the US and Japan.

I'd have worded it to emphasize the inextricable connection between drug related gang activity and the overwhelming majority violence with firearms (nearly all of them illegally possessed under existing law as of decades ago but I digress), but basically this.

They're also heavily restricting media coverage so I'm thinking they know he's gone and are waiting to inform the family and politicians first. Usually when someone dies like this they gotta get the green light from someone up top to open the floodgates.

The choice of "cardiac arrest" especially in the context of the Japanese language is very telling of his fate.
