PappyTron Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) A man went on a killing spree at center for disabled people in Japan, and managed to kill at least 15 of them before handing himself in. Very sad, as always, when people are killed whilst minding their own business and just living life, and perhaps doubly so when the victims have already had a difficult life. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/25/tokyo-knife-attack-stabbing-sagamihara Edited July 25, 2016 by PappyTron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really a sad state of affairs. Sad that these people feel like they have to kill and ruin life for other people. And most definitely. Guns aren't the issue. Crazy people with no regard for others are the problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) The guy was fired from the job at this place. Plenty of people get fired everyday and don't think to go back and kill innocent people because of it. What the hell is going on? He turned himself in. I hope he gets life in prison to suffer all his days. I'm sure there will be someone in the jail that will want a piece of him. I want to know what Japan and other countries do so guns aren't easy to buy? I think the US needs to question them about this. Maybe it'll work for us too. Yeah, it's not guns or knives, it's crazy people. If they want to kill you they will find a way. But I think getting automatic weapons too easily has to be stopped.

But I think getting automatic weapons too easily has to be stopped. japan doesn't have a right to own firearms which is the first thing, and really they don't have the history of guns we do. also their demographics are much different. japan doesn't have the gangs fighting over drug turfs, or gangs from other countries coming in and killing other gangs for said turf. the issue in the US is much more complex than most people think. the quickest and easiest way to significantly cut down gun violence in the US is to legalize drugs.
