The figure of annual gun victims has never exceeded one hundred in Japan. Most of the gun murderers including the guy who shot the Mayor of Nagasaki yesterday are the member of gangster organizations. Fortunately only people of rare kind pull the trigger in this country. Gun incidents are very uncommon, because ordinary people like us are not allowed to own guns in Japan. Although my ancestor was from Samurai family, I don't have a single sward. Japan has a tough law.
In the U.S., more than 10,000 people seem to be shot dead by an assassin in a year. Thirty victims a day. U.S. government should recognize the fact that this gun society produces almost the same number of victims as Virginia tragedy in every single day.
However, this fear might only enhance the sales of guns for self-protection. And history repeats itself.
