    Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe assassinated.

    Shot in the back with a shotgun...suspect in custody.

    Strange...Japan has banned all guns except for police and military...how could this be?

    It's interesting how well gun control laws work, isn't it?

    The assassin apparently used a home built shotgun: https://t.co/UlGvFC9Y3K

    One would think that if guns were banned, one would have to be determined to kill with one to take such action...someone who really, really wanted to kill someone. Unless that gun just built itself and jumped into his hands...

    Looks like some kind of PVC or similar for the barrels, base/grip of wood, lots of duct tape...

    Not that I'm taking notes or anything.

    From a political point of view this SUCKS. Abe was a strong supporter of the USA. He was a strong opponent of CHINA. I don't like how guys who are America allies are being targeted around the world. Is it a trend or something?

    The fact that this killer was a Navy Vet was interesting (self defense maritime service) but that he HAND MADE his gun. Proves that you can make anything out of anything.

    I'm starting to see PUSHES for more GUN CONTROL here in the USA on the leftist media as we speak.

    After a little enhancement I'd say black pipe with galvanized caps

    Sad loss of a great friend of the USA. And just proves that even in the country with the most strict firearm laws in the world, as in Number 1, criminals can still get their hands on firearms and harm others.

    Shinzo and Trump both stood against the globalists.

    Shinzo has currently been advocating for Japan to stand with Taiwan...

    Anyone need a slide rule to figure this out?

    1) News Media in COMMUNIST CHINA are celebrating Abe's Death

    2) Joe Biden took 16 HOURS to make a statement whereas NUMEROUS WORLD LEADERS including Donald Trump made condolence messages to Japan within 2 hours. BIDEN however was making a ton of Tweets about Abortion rights, blah blah blah all during the time that the world was sending condolences. I think Biden works for CHINA. He only offered sympathies when pressured to do so. Biden is such a failure.

    You gotta admit, the ingenuity was there.

    TWO plumbing pipes, two galvanized plugs with holes drilled into them. Wired through to TWO batteries that were duct taped in front of the wooden frame and a makeshift trigger. He apparently mixed his own propellant from common household chemicals and used various small machine ball bearing for 'shot'. His own home invention proved that you cannot even BAN all guns anywhere because someone will always 'find a way'.

    Me and brother made our own black powder cannon out of some galvanized pipe. We made our own black powder.....you could buy sulphur and salt petre at any decent drugstore back then. We used some fine resistance wire we got from an electrical supply shop as the fuse and a D cell battery pack and switch we got at Radio Shack.

    Worked great but our dad made us take it out to the prairie.....it was a bit loud. Amazing I still have all my fingers.

    We never used any projectiles but we thought about it.

    If two teenagers in their folks basement can do it from stuff they scrounged...it's not that hard.

    The genie has been out of the bottle a long time....you can't put it back.
    Where are we going and why are we in this handbasket???
