Sorry to deflate your weeb boner, but guns are virtually impossible to get in Japan now. You're limited to air rifles and single shot shotguns (the later for hunters only). And even those require jumping through a shit ton of hoops. The precious few remaining hunting rifles in private ownership have to be turned in when the owner dies, never to be resold. No new rimfire (that means your waifu with the Ruger 10/22) or centerfire rifles are sold anymore, and I don't think handguns ever were.

Oh sure, the occasional beating and stabbing will happen, but even the Yakuza find guns to be more trouble than they're worth. The cops carry 5 shot .38 snub-nosed revolvers, and rarely employ them.

The day "Yuko-chan" struts down Akihabara mowing down salarymen and otaku with a semi-automatic rifle is the day I'll fly to Europe and personally suck Null's cock.
Yeah I know, was mostly joking.

But I also said East Asia which includes South and North Korea, Taiwan, HK, Macau, China and Mongolia if you count it as East Asia. Although I bet those countries have gun laws as strict as Japan.

He must have been the senior most unit NCO. Which would explain him having close access to a Colonel.

Nothing will justify what he did, but I'm a bit curious what kicked this off. This isn't some rando loser that was a never-was. This is a guy who impressed his superiors enough to raise pretty high in ranks short of being given a commission.

It's Mongolia, it would be one crazy guy on horseback shooting Chinamen with arrows after he fills a yurt with arrows.
THis is a fucking game, does anyone realise that? Not too sure what the bane is but just search up "anime school shooting game" and you'll get The results
I've seen that guy's art, never knew it was a game (I did play his school stabbing game "Catch in the Hallway"). Pretty cool.

How gruesome! do you think this will be used to encourage gun control, or forgotten in Western media because he is not a cis white male with rage?
Don't worry. Kotaku or Polygon may discover "proof" that the guy played shooters popular with white male incels and Vice may come up with reports from a "trusted scoure" that he was an avid Trump supporter who hated women. Then retardera may claim his strange socmed picture (the one with the rainbow flag) as "proof" that he was bullied for being gay, claiming he was a product as well as a victim of a homophobe society and that all cis males must die. Finally CNN may catch up and blame Trump for the shooting, for incels and the Joker.

I don't think we'll ever get the real story of what happened. It's the Thais. It's all about face saving and coverups with them. This shit is going to get memoryholed even quicker than usual.
More will be known, sooner, than anything about Stephen Paddock will come out. This from a nation whose economy is built on prostitution.

EDIT: Certainly, some suggestions have already been floated
Earlier Sunday, Thailand's Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said the rampage was sparked by an argument the gunman had at his base with another soldier over a land-selling commission fee...

Authorities brought the gunman's mother from his hometown in Chaiyaphum Province to an area near the mall but she was unable to get inside, said Maj. Gen. Jirapob Puridet, who led the security team inside the building. The mother, whose name was withheld, told him there was little point in talking to her son anyway, as he had depression and an extremely bad temper.
Ya think?

"We had to make the move of confronting him because people who were trapped inside a freezing room sent messages to us that the oxygen level was very low and they are suffocating,"...

"It was almost like a Hollywood action movie shooting scene," he said. "At certain points the gun firing was nonstop."...

The gunman was "aiming for the heads," another survivor told local Amarin TV, according to Reuters.

Plenty came out about Paddock. A depressed dude dissatisfied with life who wanted to get the high score. It's just that people want there to be some great ideology-based master plan for him and there wasn't so they choose not to accept it.

i love seeing this site writhe in confusion when there's no political platitude or racial stereotype that can be regurgitated for smiley stickers
