I understand the impulse to mourn victims of any senseless crime, but a war crime denier is not someone I personally believe we should spare any tears for. Certainly advocate for society to move past assassinations, but there are lots of deaths more deserving of your mourning.
- chitowneats 4y agoI appreciate your suggestion. Who, in your opinion, would it be more correct to mourn at this time?

- chitowneats 4y agoI don't mourn for those who choose to end their own lives in situations like this. I do however appreciate your response. Thank you.
- hackerlight 4y agoI think this misses the point. The assassination was an assault on Japanese democracy and could have destabilizing and unpredictable consequences. Terrible day.
- chaostheory 4y agoThis murder has destabilizing consequences, but Japan’s democracy and freedom of press has suffered a lot more from Abe’s administration and policies.
