      I’ve read that Japan police often rule things a suicide if they don’t immediately think they know they can convict someone in order to keep their solve rate above 99%

      Even if it’s obviously a murder

      Japan doesn’t have guns freely available for purchase from gun shops every couple miles do they? I live in St. Louis and drive past half a dozen gun stores and ranges on my way to work daily, I can stop in every single one of those every day and buy a gun and ammo if I so desired. 20 minutes and a couple hundred could see me easily capable of wiping groups of people off the earth, and the couple hundred dollars is easy to get because the gun stores are always conveniently placed near payday loan shops and pawn shops

      I had to read that a few times before I realized you didn’t mean 87.83% homicide rate.
