  • Man shouting 'You die' kills 33 at Japan anime studio

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/world/asia/1...n-anime-studio

    Source: stuff.co.nz

    A man screaming "You die!" burst into an animation studio in Kyoto, doused it with a flammable liquid and set it on fire, killing 33 people in an attack that shocked the country and brought an outpouring of grief from anime fans.

    Thirty-six others were injured in the attack on Thursday (Friday NZ time), some of them critically, in a blaze that sent people scrambling up the stairs toward the roof in a desperate - and futile - attempt to escape what proved to be Japan's deadliest fire in nearly two decades.

    Others emerged bleeding, blackened and barefoot.

    The suspect, identified only a 41-year-old man who did not work for the studio, was injured and taken to a hospital. Police gave no details on the motive.

        BBC has a long article but one should be wary about whether some details are accurate

              Are we now going to see copycats of this? Seems like every time some idiot does something in the news, other idiots try to emulate him.

                If somebody has it in their heart to do evil, they will often find a way to do evil.

                        I found that licking the ice cream afterwards helps get the taste of Tide outta your mouth.




                        Now where did I put my bath salts.

                          Ya just have to lick fast, so you can taste it before you get dead.
