Ban “earth cannons,” now!
a staple gun, modified to shoot bullets??
how can that be done?
I saw something on the China subreddit the other day. Not a lot…but there was talk about it.
Isn’t there gun control in China? Asking for a friend.
"A massive murder occurred in Zhaike Village, Luohe Town, Rizhao Ju County, Shandong Province. News of the incident was blocked by the authorities, and relevant reports and online information were deleted and blocked. However, news gradually spread overseas, indicating that the murderer was a local villager in his 10s......The more reliable news is that the murderer is in his thirties, has a slight disability, and was adopted to his uncle since he was a child.
The murder occurred in the middle of the night (that is, in the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year). When the villagers found out, they first called the 120 emergency hotline. Medical staff Arrive at the scene before the police. A medical worker was eager to save people, but the murderer squatted at the scene and made a surprise attack, causing him to be attacked and killed.
A netizen who claimed to be from Ju County said: The murderer was a migrant worker. He was abused by his stepfather at home and bullied by his teacher in school. During the Chinese New Year, he went home and shot his teacher and his whole family with a nail gun he modified.
Then went home and took a nap.
Around seven o'clock, they went out again and shot them from house to house. People who were celebrating the New Year were all watching TV at home and no one came to visit, so they didn’t notice it. The sound of firecrackers outside covered up the sound of gunfire. We visited five houses in total, 14 people died and 5 were seriously injured."
A Twitter video alleged that this was done at random by a laid-off member of the local PD. Then there’s this other account.
However, shortly after the incident unfolded, the information surrounding it appeared to be systematically blocked by Chinese authorities.
The incident, initially referred to as the “Juxian Murder Case” or the “Zhaike Village Massacre,” briefly trended on social media platforms. Speculation arose regarding the alleged perpetrator, who was rumoured to have a disability and a history of abuse by relatives.
According to several mainland Chinese media outlets and online sources, the tragedy occurred on the first day of the Lunar New Year, February 10th. It is believed that a man in his thirties, armed with a homemade firearm, carried out the violent rampage. Shockingly, he did not spare even the emergency medical personnel who arrived at the scene. After killing more than ten people, he swiftly fled the area. The incident quickly gained attention on platforms such as Douyin, with hashtags related to the “Juxian Murder Case” and “Zhaike Village” trending.
Additionally, online forums such as “Chigua Net” featured alleged insiders providing further details. These individuals claimed that the suspect, who had a mild disability, had worked outside the village for many years. They also mentioned that during his childhood, he had been mistreated by his adopted uncle. As he grew older, he faced legal troubles and was imprisoned, allegedly due to a complaint filed by one of his former teachers. These experiences seemingly fueled his desire for revenge, leading to the tragic events that unfolded upon his release.
It has been reported that the suspect used a homemade nail gun during the attack, taking advantage of the noise from firecrackers to conceal the sound of his weapon. He methodically targeted individuals he had grievances with, which included his stepfather and former teacher, among others. This suggests that the motives behind the massacre were carefully calculated.
Following the incident, a massive manhunt was launched by the authorities, involving armed police and military personnel. Initial reports from mainland Chinese media stated that the suspect had been apprehended.
However, as discussions surrounding the case continued to gain traction, all information related to the Juxian Murder Case mysteriously disappeared. There are suspicions that the government has imposed a comprehensive information blackout on the incident, leaving the authenticity and details of the event unverifiable.]
In my younger days we, of course, had to set up a target at a construction site and try this ourselves. The thing about those 22 cartridge nail guns, is they are made to fire a nail at high speed into concrete or some other hard material. They are NOT made for range; we literally couldn’t hit a target ten feet away most of the time. The nail is not aerodynamic in the least and tends to lose momentum and just go into spin as soon as it leaves the gun. So, unless this guy was literally just running up to people and shooting nails directly into them (which I guess is possible) I find this rather implausible.
I’m sure it will be blamed on American gun owners and the NRA.
They got those hateful, redneck, violent MAGA folks over thar too??
