All done with a simple fire started. Not unlike the Happy Land fire in NYC, where 85 were killed in 1990 with a few $ worth of gasoline...

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

Thirty-six others were injured, 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, but a witness told Japanese TV that the attacker angrily complained that something of his had been stolen, possibly by the company.

CLEARLY, NO ONE needs high-capacity, assault gasoline, and those ridiculous one gallon containers. A thimbleful of gasoline should be plenty for EVERYONE'S "sporting purposes!" :fie:

Of COURSE he didn't - who DID?! :rolleyes:

I'm being serious and sarcastic, things like that just don't happen in Japan. What is this world coming to.

They talk about this in Revelations but mostly it’s because people know it will make the news

Originally I was going to say something snarky about Japan Animation Studios reaping what the sow in terms of bad pay for their background animators but it seems this was a case of crazy being crazy, no different from a typical week in Florida. :jester:

The internet and social media. And people thought mass killing was limited to western societies.

I like the way that works. Short notification of execution helps to alleviate several problems.


Fire is a very effective weapon. It's effectiveness for inflicting damage and loss of human life is incredible.

Indeed, fire has been used as a "weapon of war" to great effect long, long before "assault rifles" existed.
