Japanese voters went to the polls on Sunday for a parliamentary election that gave the ruling Liberal Democratic Party a surge of support after the death of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The election was held just days after Abe, an LDP heavyweight, was shot while delivering a campaign speech in the western city of Nara, leaving the country in a state of shock and mourning.

My condolences to the prime minister. But I have no sympathy for him or his political affiliations. He and his Nippon Kaigi cronies have controlled Japan for a long time by distorting Japan’s role in WWII and denying war crimes against Asians (predominantly Koreans and Chinese), Europeans, and Americans in Japan’s education. Japan may be one of the safest nations in the world. Still, as long as his cronies remain in control, minorities in Japan, countries neighboring Japan, and Asian Americans will never be safe from people like him and his political affiliations.
Abe was far right wing and grand son of WW2 class A war criminal who refused to make a full apology to victims. He stole money from tax payers. For example, Abe won Tokyo Olympics then contracted paper box bed to his brother's company for $2200 each which can be made in China for under $5, 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 for Japanese class A war criminals but won't do it for victims by Japan.
My condolences to the the entire world for the victims of japanese war crimes

2 Law enforcement cant be prosecuted for Not doing their jobs
3 Law enforcement can legally lie unless they are under oath at that moment
4 The District Attorney will side with the cops almost always
5 Law enforcement has qualified immunity, which makes it very difficult to prosecute them
Texas Shooting Coverup …..over 18 armed evil trumpist c o p s had over 11,000 live rounds of ammo and they waited. and waited…..while people were being killed. it took the border patrol to take out the shooter…. how sad is that?
