Holy crap.

For anyone that's ever followed Japan or their markets (Abenomics, Abeism) their former Prime Minister until 2020, Shinzo Abe, has just been shot. Sounds like he may not have survived. Happened in just the last half hour.

Wth

Thought better of it?

Thought better of it?

Is this you blowing on the embers?

 

[evillawyer]

Seeing some reports that it's not looking good for Shinzo.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Somebody was shot in a country with extremely strict gun laws??

I just don't know how this can be true.

God help us if the the suspect has ties to NK or China.

"Somebody died while wearing a seatbelt! You see, you see, they don't work."

Yeah, that's how stupid you look.

First major news source saying he's showing no vital signs.

Banning automobiles would be the appropriate analogy. See how stupid you look?

Her slogan below her screen name is “thanks Joe”.

She takes the stupidest prize daily.

We should ask what more Japan could do to prevent another shooting from happening ever again.

Picture of the attacker shooting and then being tackled.

It appears that if someone is determined to cause damage, they will find a way to get it done.

I mean in a country where it is damn hard to legally acquire a gun, someone just shot a former PM.

Not enough laws I guess.

Do we say "Aww, screw it. People are still raping despite all these laws outlawing rape. Let's just get rid of those laws. They clearly don't do nuthin' to stop rapes."

Video out.

What law stops a rapist that is determined to rape?

Do we say "Aww, screw it. People are still raping despite all these laws outlawing rape. Let's just get rid of those laws. They clearly don't do nuthin' to stop rapes."

It seems to be a popular stance for those against drug laws.

I guess you could pass another law saying “ok now rape is really really really illegal and we mean it this time!”

Could make erections illegal.

 

[evillawyer]

Looks like gun may have been homemade or disguised to look like a camera with a zoom lens.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Could make erections illegal.

Most of the chics I’ve seen protesting the Dobbs decision have eradicated any stray erections already.

Fun fact: less. Than. 10. Gun. Homicides. Per. Year.
