That leaves out how public opinion changed after motive was known.

The assassination brought the many social issues with the Unification Church under the spotlight again, as well as tumbled the approval of the ruling party. Under the public pressure, the responsible ministry decided to file a dissolution order against the UC with the Tokyo District Court on 13 October 2023, after nearly a year of investigation of wrongdoings

Japanese people cosplaying Yamagami's appearance during Abe's assassination were spotted at events like the rally against Abe's state funeral. These cosplayers held cardboard signs displaying the leaders they were against: Abe, Ali Khamenei, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping

Right now there are a bunch of supreme cout justices who have lied to the public and reversed some laws, stripping away the rights of vulnerable demographics, resulting not just in a body count, but some particularly ghastly preventable deaths.

The story goes on with Texas changing its investigation and reporting policies so that these gruesome deaths can go without public scrutiny or outcry.

I am not a militant activist, and in most cases do not condone assassination, including the attempt on Trump. But if the lifetime appointments of supreme court justices were to suddenly become a liability, say if any of the FedSoc jurists were shot at, I would certainly enjoy the poetry.

It's actually Leonard Leo and his dark money benefactors that deserve a proper Disney eaten-by-hyenas demise, and so much damage has been done that the imbalance of justice will be felt for centuries.

So even for peaceniks like me, there are exceptions to civilized process.
