    Jesus that's terrible. Despicable act, posters be civil please I know 99% will but there's always 1.

    I thought I was desensitized to hearing of these acts but this one really gets to me. Poor defenceless people. RIP.

    Holy ****. I thought the world couldn't get any worse.

    I looked at the BBC News Channel ticker while watching Sportsday and I thought Jesus Christ.

    My thoughts go out to those who have been killed in Tokyo. RIP to all those who died.

    Senseless violence seems to be contagious these days, everyday and in places where you wouldn't expect it.

    I know Japan had the Sarin attack years ago, but Japan is known for it low level of violent crime.
    Another sad day for people who never thought it would be their last, the poor families and friends.

    Not terrorist attack. More of a personal attack on a place he worked or was living.?

    I forgot to mention this but one of my own college classmates is from Japan. I had my began my months holidays from college last Friday & he was talking to my classmates about going back to Japan for his holidays.

    I don't know what is his date for his holiday now but I hope that he is here instead of there on a night like this. :(

    Does it really matter where in the world he is?
    Unless he lived near that building/worked in it then he was not in danger/hopefully does not know dead/injured.
    No matter where he is, its likely he will feel upset about a horrible event in his home country.

    Have people forgotten how to be extremely violent in the face of extreme violence, hard to believe he could cause so much carnage and get away.

    Jesus, I was wondering how one person without a gun did so much damage, forgot it was the middle of the night and everyone would be asleep :(

    What a low down cowardly act attacking people who'd have trouble protecting themselves anyway, when they're completely defenseless. Wonder if he had an axe, there have been a few axe massacres in Japan over the years.

    Maybe because his victims were disabled & therefore not able to defend themselves

    most people run at the sight of someone that's armed or drop to the floor and hope for the best ,

    It just take 2-4 to rush and take down a single attacker ,
    A lot of places in America now are running self defense classs where they teach students how to rush an attacker ,

    But in this case a lot of the victims would have been asleep as it was after 2am and with the sheer numbers of casualties it was probably easy to walk out the front door

    You miss the bit about the victims being disabled?



    Those poor people. Jesus. I hope some good, positive news stories come out in the next few days. We need more good in the world.
