No amount of our dubious technology can ever mask the fact that this is a planet unable to extricate itself from barbarity. And no! This is not simply the result of "human nature", but of regulation that gives cover for those who express this same barbarity but on a genocidal scale. Meanwhile the masses accept our disease as being "normal", hoping that what goes around never comes around to visit us.
So sad! I'm not Japanese but have known him since his long-term service as the PM of Japan. He was a good man and his death is so sudden. I'm still in shock and sadden by this. I wish thing was diff. Since assassination by gun was never done, I think that is why security was a bit lacking and they let people stand so close up to the politician. I hope other criminals won't use this as an example to carry out other assassinations. You can disagree with people's politics without the need to kill anyone.
Chinese and Korean citizens wildly celebrate the death of Prime Minister Abe. Celebration for the assassination, discount for the death at restaurants and coffee shops, treating the murderer as a hero… they're going too far. There are hundreds of evidences on Twitter and anyone can see them. I'm wondering why big media companies don't broadcast this.
Abe Sam may your soul Rest In Peace ๐we Filipino love you Sir โค๏ธ๐ฏ๐ต๐ต๐ญ
If there is a canine around, for sure it will be discovered…I'm really sad this happened to him
This is so sad because I know he has done a lot for Japan ..
Why didn't they ban guns!

Fuq jihad joe Biden. He aided abetted and armed the Taliban. America will never forget what joe did. Just like we will never forget he got back into bed with foreign oil on his first day in office and gas has gone up every day since. Nothing to do with Putin everything to do with dirty Biden crime syndicate
Japan is one, if not the country with the lowest crime rate.. itโs wild.
Some of the Japanese Secret Service are performing seppuku. ๐ณ
He not deserve like that .
If heโs conservative, no wonder he made enemies.
๐ข๐๐ญ
According to Biden he and Shinzo were childhood friends and grew up to together
I hope they pummel that guys face in over and over in Jail

No security is truly secured

Iโm very sad to hear this! The sad thing is, this makes the point that Criminals will always find a way to carry out Evil, regardless of ANY LAW!
You know the gun man will not Serve the rest of his life in prison they will kill him thatโs what the United States needs to start doing to people that want to mass murder innocent people kill them donโt let them live off taxpayers for the rest of their lives because they wanted to make a name for themselves But the reason they live in prison is because weโre Paying to keep them alive itโs all about greed
Why did the k1lled him?
cool gay๏ผmean the killer
1 shot in Japan in a year compared to over 14,000 in America.
America a third world country that the rest of the world use as the butt of it's jokes.
very sad news
Consequences are comin hard for the suspect who admitted this horrible sin.. May his soul rot in hell for all eternity..
Condolences for Japan and the Mr. Abeโs family ๐
Homemade gun huh? So much for gun control.
Inb4 Propaganda News deletes my comment lol.
Wtf did they use a musket?
"I take responsibility" for the assassination of Shinzo Abe, Nara police chief says. WOW, we would NEVER hear this in right wing terrorists USA, they would never apologize and take accountability and responsibility for anything unless it is stealing Democrats' credit.
Japanese never knew higher education could be dangerous. This Japanese man builds an electric gun. High chemist skills and engineering skills. He's able to take down Abe.
I bet the animal that shot him was a biden supporter.
RIP fromJP๐ฏ๐ต
He was symbol of the democracy and like a papa of the nation for me, 16years old girl
