for this -- yakuza related incident. in a country where the politics are quite staid, and there is not a lot of interest in what is going on sometimes, it is extraordinary. gun crime is extremely rare. certainly, very different to many other countries. dani: it is a question many would be asking, how did the -- get a gun? we have a fantastic blog to monitor the latest on this. in terms of politicians, what should we be watching? >> i think the next thing to watch is prime minister kishida, he will speak at 3:30 p.m. here, about 25 minutes from now. just to go back to your point about the gun, there are reports from the scene that indicate it might be a homemade weapon. reports saying multiple police indicate that might be a factor as well. guns are not prevalent here whatsoever but they are available with stringent checks. dani: thank you very much, you will be with us throughout the program to keep us up-to-date. former prime minister abe of japan has been shot, and is still unresponsive at this moment. we have a report

eight were related to the yakuza, the japanese mob, and there was one gun death. so, there is actually just not much of a security apparatus around the leader because it has been very safe so far. he was on the street on a tiny stump that he was standing on and that was about it. and the gunman was apprehended almost immediately after the shooting. but by then shinzo abe had already been gravely injured. so i imagine there will be questions about security that all politicians heading back out into the trail today. but i don't know if there will be a long term enhancement in how [inaudible] >> this gun was pretty crude but the assailant was in close proximity. and based on the images we have seen, the gun was rather large. and i'm just wondering, i can't imagine that happening as easily in the united states. because people would react to the gun. but given the rarity of someone using a weapon like that in japan, i almost wonder whether that caused a delay. people not really understanding what was happening -- >> i have been wondering the same as well, actually, abo
