I could not see the article but I was talking about pulseless patients transported by air. It’s kind of hard doing CPR in a medivac helicopter. The rates may be higher than 1% but not that much higher.

I will have to look up the study but Kelly Grayson posted about it several years ago.

Here is a study from 2006.

A friend who’s sister lives in Japan said a few days ago she was getting off the internet because there were going to problems with the next Election over there. She said things were getting heated between the 3 ruling families.

Kishida is on the ground. Probably an announcement before 2AM EST.

Japan has among the toughest gun control laws on the planet in case you were wondering.

Yeah, the homemade shotgun blew almost like he had two party poppers that hit black powder that blew shrapnel into Abe. First shot seemed to miss, second shot hit.

Kishida:
Abe still alive but struggling.
Really pissed and will take necessary responses.
LDP will convene and no word on elections in two days.

And I would NOT be surprised if President Trump issued a statement BEFORE the current pResident.

He already did and I think it was before Biden but it was on Truth social and not twitter.

Abe is reported to be unconscious and has gone into cardiac arrest; the phrase is often used in Japan preceding a formal confirmation of death by a coroner.

2 open ended pipe bombs, lots of tape, and what appears to be wires so maybe a battery.

Can make gunpowder easily at home as well.
