Summary
The former PM of Japan, Shinzo Abe, was assassinated yesterday during a campaign speech. Murder is always terrible. Murder of political leaders is especially disrupting. Japan is in shock. It may sound counterintuitive, but people don’t do things that will make them happy. Per usual, callers set the agenda. Issues raised include: Jewish Law now saying that abortion is okay; I was cancelled as a professor because I showed comedy clips and people thought it was a hostile environment.

| 1:04.0 | And I guess the lead story today, I don't normally follow the pattern of what is the lead story, |
| 1:10.4 | but this is in my mind. There's many competition. The former Prime Minister of Japan, 67-year-old |
| 1:20.8 | Shinzo Abe, shows they have a new footage showing that his bodyguards tried to deflect the |
| 1:29.2 | assassin's bullets with briefcases, as the former Prime Minister freezes when the first shot is |

| 1:48.0 | calmly walking, calmly waiting behind Abe as he prepares to attack. |
| 1:56.5 | It's hard to imagine that there was a political intent. He sounds like a crack pot. |
| 2:03.1 | It's almost impossible to get a gun in Japan, so from what I heard, I cannot confirm from what I heard, |
| 2:13.6 | he manufactured his own gun. With 3D printing, if this becomes more and more possible, |

| 2:49.1 | We'll find out why this happened. There is a rupture to the public |
| 2:57.3 | in any country when a leader is assassinated, even if it's a former leader. |
