You obviously don't have a clue about mental retardation. You're making yourself look stupid with the comments in this thread.

It's actually a subject i am very well versed in, but clinical application of my knowledge and applying it to a real-world situation like this is completely different.

He broke in the middle of the night - making a cowardly act even more cowardly. Maybe he stuffed some of their faces with pillows before he attacked. They were also mainly elderly and many probably too weak to potentially alert others.

Knife wielding man kills 15 in Japan.

(CNN)A knife-wielding man has gone on a rampage at a facility for disabled people in the city of Sagamihara, west of Tokyo, according to a report from Japanese state broadcaster NHK. The report, citing police, says 15 people are confirmed dead and 45 injured.​


Where were the employees in all this? It says 9 employees including a security guard were on the premises and states one of them called the police. But none of them thought to stop the attacker?

Yeah that sounds pretty cowardly, of course that's easy for me to say as I wasn't there. One knife vs 9 people doesn't sound like bad odds, then again just watch any ninja movie, they always have the guy outnumbered but stand around waiting to get killed one at a time

He used to work there. He broke in at 3am when he knew the rounds of the employees were sparse. He tied up two of the employees then went quietly room to room over the span of two buildings. The patients of the facility are elderly.

Wow what a sick f***, I guess that explains how he was able to kill so many people with a knife.

The global economic environment is a challenge that many of you around the world are no doubt experiencing. We're seeing high global inflation rates, as well as adverse currency trends, impacting consumers and creating pressure on many industries. Based on these challenging economic conditions, SIE has made the difficult decision to increase the recommended retail price (RRP) of PlayStation 5 in select markets across Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), Asia-Pacific (APAC), Latin America (LATAM), as well as Canada. There will be no price increase in the United States.

The new RRPs below are effective immediately unless otherwise noted.*

  • Europe
    • PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – €549.99
    • PS5 Digital Edition – €449.99
  • UK
    • PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – £479.99
    • PS5 Digital Edition – £389.99
  • Japan (effective Sept. 15, 2022)
    • PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – ¥54,980 yen
    • PS5 Digital Edition – ¥44,980 yen
  • China
    • PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – ¥4,299 yuan
    • PS5 Digital Edition – ¥3,499 yuan
  • Australia
    • PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – AUD $799.95
    • PS5 Digital Edition – AUD $649.95
  • Mexico
    • PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – MXN $14,999
    • PS5 Digital Edition – MXN $12,499
  • Canada
    • PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive – CAD $649.99
    • PS5 Digital Edition – CAD $519.99
While this price increase is a necessity given the current global economic environment and its impact on SIE's business, our top priority continues to be improving the PS5 supply situation so that as many players as possible can experience everything that PS5 offers and what's still to come.

Thank you for your continued support.
