  1. In America that is just normal thing to happen! Mass killings are less than 10 deaths are not even get any news coverage.

  2. I’m getting credits to watch this video. I’m getting credits to watch this video. I’m getting credits to watch This video.

  3. Its gotta bs a lie. Mika and Joe tell me it only happens here

  4. Why was he pointing his LOADED weapon towards people at all?

  5. There are quite a few mentally ill people here in Japan. They’ve perfected the art of passive agression; this guy might have just seen an opportunity.

  6. Unfortunately sometimes this is what comes with training soldiers, at least the flip out wasn't actually in the field or on a mission. Condolences to the families that lost loved ones. ✌🏾

  7. FULL METAL JACKET ⁉️⁉️😡😵‍💫🤬 STOP BULLYING RECRUITS 🤯

  8. So not only just bad drivers i see 🧐🤔

  9. This is the result of trying to turn a snowflake into a soldier.

  10. Wow.. that was crazy, I can't believe it. It blows my mind how absolutely crazy that was. I'm definitely surprised

  17. Just ignore all the mass shootings and violent outbreaks and keep moving forward as if nothing has happened.

  18. What a wonderful world

  19. He tested their self-defense strategies.. they failed.

  20. Mental issues are rising in Asia too. Look at Korea, and Japan too. Work work untill you get mentally sick.

  21. Ahh so this is not just a US issue, shocker right?

  22. The US was just the beginning. These types of incidents will be happening all over the world soon.

  23. This won’t happen if you ban guns

  24. My hearts and prayers go out to the families. How is that possible? Was he aiming for the three people? Seems like there is a lot more to the story.
