It was just so shocking to learn the assassination of Former PM of Japan

Saw the footage of how the assassin was observing the security around him and a close footage of the actual shot.

Very tragic .

But what was the reason?

Did Abe go off script/about to let something out of the bag....to then be murdered by a "lone nut" who later happens "to be known by authorities"?

@DDonde This is sad. What motive could this this assissination? How the culprit? Did he get caught?

DDonde · 31-35, M

@iamelijah the motive is confusing rn, I don’t think the killer was of sound mind. He didn’t resist arrest and told the police everything after he did it.

The most I know is that it was an ex military person who used a home made gun

Ouch, that’s tragic

DDonde · 31-35, M

yeah it's crazy
as far as I have figured out he was ex-military that thought Abe had ties to some religious organization that he didn't specify

@DDonde God! But killing isn't ever encouraged in any religious texts. But the nonsense these fanatics do in the name of religion

DDonde · 31-35, M

@SW-User The assassin wasn't religious, the assassin thought Abe was responsible for bringing the mystery religion (that he despised) to Japan. Or something along those lines.
