  1. He was far right wing and grand son of WW2 class A war criminal who refused to make a full apology to victims. He screwed up Japanese economy with his foolish policies and stole money from tax payers. For example, Abe won Tokyo Olympics then contracted paper box bed to his brother's company for $2200 each, gave used school property for almost nothing to his friend and used government fund to treat his supporters. He used sudden sickness as excuse twice to quit as prime minister when he was in hot seat for embezzlement and not able to handle COVID. Abe gave prayers every year to Japanese class A war criminals and changed school textbooks that Japan was victim of the West and nuclear bombs by the US. Let's not sugar coat this and look at him for facts that he was no angel.

  2. But, but guns are illegal in Japan. Proof gun laws do not work.

  3. %¥~!@~@##¥¥¥#!~The Japanese have yet to sincerely apologize for the heinous crimes committed in World War II, denying the Nanjing Massacre, denying the issue of comfort women, denying the 731 unit that conducted human experiments, Shinzo Abe is the representative of Japanese militarism, this man should be damned

  4. It is very sad day for Japan 🇯🇵
    This act is against Free, democracy, law and order.

  5. fascist, nazi collaborator descendent, US puppet. gets his

  6. He knew that Abe was associated with a particular religious organization.His mother suffered a lot of financial damage from the religious organization.He planned to kill Abe and he made bombs and guns at home.He looked for a place to kill Abe.He visited Okayama before coming to this Nara. In Okayama, security checks were strict and he could not carry out killing Abe.He decided to use a handgun instead of a bomb to ensure that Abe was killed.There were no security checks in Nara.He carried out his plan to kill him in Nara.This is the story.

  8. I feel like the same should be applied to the US

  9. No one deserves this, sorry for your loss.

  10. The man who killed former premier abé could face up to life imprisonment with no parole

  11. To be "unhappy" with a politician is not an explanation or a reason to do this. Western media is not being honest with us. This is why I always end up reading news from India.
