    Yeah that is why I kind of despise outrages. It comes not at the sign of trouble, but at the sight of drama. In this case it waited up until it was no longer even that much of a thing while it poisoned politics for over 2 decades.

    The guy did nothing of positive note, it was plain bloody revenge and people cheered for it, at least that is what you are saying.

      It helped expose a lot of government connections to the moonies, so something positive came out of it. Abe kinda sucked anyway. The conservatives have held power in Japan for literally like 60 years (minus a couple years right before the 2011 tsunami).
