Stabbing Rampage in Tokyo’s Akihabara

Stabbing Rampage in Tokyo’s Akihabara
I kinda shock when I read thru this news at newspaper this morning. Akihabara is my favorite place to hang out during my stay at Tokyo. It is a place you can find whatever related to technology. What a horrible thing happened there. Why that particular person done that to public?

I personally think that self control of stress and tension is very important.

    I suspect this man is quite unlike you and me.

    He may have been exhibiting bizarre behavior for quite some time. He may have had a very abusive childhood.

    I do wonder how society can protect us from the violent.

    It seems costly to identify those who may become violent and, in America, it seems impossible to identify them without infringing on their personal rights.

    Once identified, there is little money for treatment.

    Mike:
    I agreed with you for 50%.

    In Japan, everyone in live under intensive pressure and tension. Their life is just like Grenade, anytime will blow us off~
