Political assassinations happen here occasionally. Overwhelmingly done with knives and swords. Very traditional.Cowshed Cowboy wrote: ↑Fri Jul 08, 2022 10:17 amWow, that seems a bit un-Japanese likeBig Daikon wrote: ↑Fri Jul 08, 2022 10:06 am https://archive.ph/MibhF

Happens a lot more than people think, sometimes as "suicide" by train or jumping off a bridge in "despair".
Gun is a lot less common though, but I wont speculate to why it was the weapon of choice.
