Seriously, though. Rogers, Bell, and Telus are slimy crooks.

I have to disagree. During his time as PM, Abe sought to revise a part of Japan's constitution to give the JSDF more of an ability to assist its military allies if they were attacked. However, that never materialized as Abe stepped down in 2020 due to health concerns. I don't think firearm laws were ever on the table with him as PM. The separation between military and civilian life is quite pronounced based on Japan's pacifist stance written into its Constitution after WWII and revising firearm laws or repealing them in a country that prides itself on social cohesion and safety would be a bad look for any politician.

He signed a four-year contract through the 2025 with the Elks. They can't afford to can him any time soon, IMO.

Zero downside. Japan is one of the safest countries on the planet and its firearm laws no doubt play a major role in that. This is the first assassination with a firearm of a political figure in over 60 years in Japan, so this incident is going have ramifications - good and bad. I expect security at future campaign events will be ramped up (good) and I imagine Abe's death will widen division between political ideologues there (bad).

Pretty immense upside, IMO. Says he tries to model his game after Mathew Barzal, which is a skill set the Jets could use on the wing.- NHL Draft 2022

https://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/help-nasa-scientists-find-clouds-on-mars NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover captured these clouds just after sunset on March 19, 2021, the 3,063rd Martian day, or sol, of the rover’s mission. The image is made up of 21 individual images stitched together and color corrected so that the scene appears as it would to the human eye. The clouds are drifting over “Mont Mercou,” a cliff face that Curiosity studied. Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS - Week 5: Non Champs Games
