, Mr.Uemura Yasuhiro (64), who was a town councilor of Kowaura Minamiise Machi Mie was found dead in his car. He was bleeding from his chest, the car was parked in his farm.

According to police, he had his chest shot and a shotgun (113 cm long, over-under) was put outside of the car. Around 10:30 AM 1/3/2012, he went out for his farm to keep the crows away with his gun. He went by himself. Police assumes it was suicide or a gun accident.

Mr.Uemura was elected in 1990 for the first time. He acted against the construction of Ashihama nuclear plan of Chubu Electric Power. After the Fukushima accident, he traveled around in Japan to give lectures against nuclear.

Of course {smacks head}. It was the suicide/accident scenario what done him in. How could I have not seen it?

Now let's see here.... he had just come from one his "anti-nuclear lectures" and was likely all hopped up about it and needed to let off some steam. So he says: "I know, I'll go kill some crows!"

So then he drives to his farm and starts shooting at the crows right from the front seat of his car! With the steering wheel and everything right there in front of him. Why, you ask? Because lets face it, the only REAL way to kill crows is shooting them from the front seat of your car. Amirite?

So anyway, and then he somehow gets the gun mixed up and turned around there (these liberal lecturers don't know beans about guns, ya see?), and the next thing you know he done shot himself. Don't you hate when that happens? I know, I know what some of you are thinking: "but that would mean he'd have a wound in his shoulder!"

And you'd normally be right. But he was trying to make his suicide look phony just to get back at the Atomic Energy Commission from the grave. It's true! So, of course the old fossil had to make it all look phony. See? To help him and them hippie friends of his who hate nuclear energy! And America.

- It's plain as day......







On this day in history there was another meltdown. In Idaho.....

People act perfectly normal before hand. They could even be in a cheery mood.

Japan also has one of the highest suicide rates in the developed world.

Why just a town councilor? Why such a small town? Why not just buy him off with the Millions of trillions that the nuclear industry gets? Everyone has their price.

And accidents do happen to people, even famous ones. Jimmy Hendricks, who wanted to knock him off? Maybe you could dig if your grab bag of theories for that one. NASA?

It doesn't pass the smell test.

According to this article, the Ise Police are speculating that it was a misfire. The shotgun was found just outside the driver's side of the car, with traces of powder in the immediate vicinity, and traces of shot were found inside the vehicle leading up to the roof. It is conceivable that the deceased was, indeed, shooting at crows from inside his vehicle, since it would given him both cover from the crows and protection from the cold. This is Japan, after all, and such a thing would not be unheard of here. The driver's door was open when Mr. Uemura was found.
