Army of Dog

Japan, the favorite model for gun-grabbers, experienced an event whose very title belies the criminal nature of disarming private citizens, a “mass stabbing.”  Seven people, six men and a young woman, were killed and another dozen were injured when a “suicidal” nutbag ran his truck into a crowd and started stabbing people at random.

A man went on a stabbing spree Sunday in a Tokyo neighbourhood famed for comic-book subculture, killing at least seven people and leaving around a dozen injured in Japan’s deadliest crime in years.

The assailant, who later told police he was “tired of living,” drove a truck into a crowd of pedestrians shortly after noon in Tokyo’s bustling Akihabara area before jumping out and stabbing strangers while screaming.

The assailant was identified as Tomohiro Kato, 25, from central Shizuoka prefecture. He first said he was a gangster before retracting his story.

“I came to Akihabara to kill people. It didn’t matter whom I’d kill,” he was quoted by Jiji Press as telling police.

Did you ever think that you’d long for the good old days, when anti-social losers would just kill themselves with a shotgun and blame hidden messages in heavy metal records?

By the time Kato finally dropped his knife with an officer’s gun pointed at him, 17 people lay bloodied on the street of the crowded district, according to fire department and police officials.

Kato had blood running down the side of his face as he was taken into custody.

Jiji Press and other Japanese media said seven people were dead — six men aged 19, 20, 29, 33, 47 and 74, and a 21-year-old woman.

The attack fell on the anniversary of the last incident of similar magnitude — a stabbing frenzy that left eight children dead at a Japanese elementary school in 2001.

Well, what do ya know?  It turns out that having a gun does in fact put a damper on the melee habits of knife-wielding psychopaths.  Who’d a thunk it?  And this has happened twice for Christ’s sake?  It’s bad enough that people die in this country when some asshole takes a gun into a crowd of forcibly-disarmed citizens and does this kind of damage, but a fucking knife?!  If you need an example of just how fucking defenseless the castrated douchebags at Handgun Control and their ilk want you to be, just imagine 17 injured in a public place by a loser with a survival knife.

The elementary school attack stunned Japan, which prides itself on its safety, and authorities moved to step up security at schools.

In another knifing spree, a man in 1999 drove into the main train station in the southwestern city of Shimonoseki and stabbed to death five people.

Japan tightly restricts guns. But in December last year, a licensed hunter with a vendetta barged into a private gym in the western town of Sasebo and shot dead two people.

This is happening in a racially homogenous, ancient society that views conformity as an extreme social virtue (all of which is ignored completely by the self-righteous Brady assholes when their beating us over the head with Japan’s crime statistics).  I wish to whatever god is out there that we could all just learn one simple fucking lesson:  You cannot keep the wolves from attacking the sheep, all you can do is arm the sheep and try to give them the advantage.  Of course this idea will never be accepted by the twerps that campaign for “sensible” gun control because it’s not an idea that makes them feel all warm and fuzzy.  And God knows, in the world of liberal self-gratification, dead, defenseless citizens are a small matter.

Of course, this whole incident is probably just a result of Japan’s “sword-obsessed culture” anyway, so, never mind.
