Living with one Japanese--a single person--makes you as expert on Japan? From knowing 1/100,000,000th of the population of a country without ever setting foot there you think you can generalize?
...
That, I agree with 100%.
Oh?
And have you spent much time in Japan?
Is that how you know about the bad points?
LMFAO Frankie!
No country is ever perfect. We're all mature enough to know that already.
Japan has its problems, agreed. But what country doesn't. I didn't think this forum is designed...
I'm not convinced.
The fact that many foreignors in Japan DO commit crime doesn't help. Then the police are doing a good job if they ethnically profile. I'm generally dressed in a suit and tie...
Maybe that means if the prosecutors don't think they have enough to convict, they don't take it to trial. DAs in the U.S. work like that all the time.
If the evidence is there, why shouldn't a...
Do you think every single person who sits in prison in the U.S., UK, Canada, or Australia is guilty? Might be a few innocent ones there as well.

i would make an example if i knew any stereotype or so about canada but i seriously don't know anything about canada because nobody ever talks about you (your next to the big US they...
Any European would think that a judicial system that allowed the death penalty would be "backward."
But I think Japanese don't need to fix anything that's not broke. Their system works for them. ...
Yet another stereotype/generalization.
Maciamo,
Do you ever have anything remotely good to say about Japan or the Japanese?
That would be an exception and not the rule. People in such towns appreciate the jobs that the Japanese companies provide and might try not to offend anyone otherwise the company might leave town. ...
A Japanese person could go to any small U.S. town in the mid-west or the south, take a walk around town, and I will guarantee you he will be stared at.
About 30 years ago, there was a derogatory term used to refer to left-handed people: "Giccho".
If it's not in use any more then their attitudes must have changed.
Epigene-san,
Do you still...
The difference in Japan is, the execution can be carried out rather swiftly. I heard recently a killer who had walked into a school yard and killed and injured kids was executed in about 6 months...
So, you saying Japan ranks among the highest in the degree of racism?
If 80% of the population of Japan want the death penalty, let them have it. They only execute vicious murderers.
Last time I checked, that's called "democracy."
If you don't plan on killing...
That's cute. And very considerate of your daughter.
"classmates will soon come to flood the person with silly questions"
like "Is this a pen?" LOL!
Only problem is, again, what if you run...
So where do you come from? Italy?
They haven't colonized any African nation ?
There are also Tai Chi and Chi Kung masters in their 80s in China who can soundly thrash those in their 20s.
I hope there are no topless dancers over the age of 80. :p
If I see an Asian person in the U.S., I'm going to speak English to him/her.
What's the big deal?
Why should foreigners get special treatment in Japan? If you're going to live in Japan, you...
If you really believe that, you need to get yourself out of Japan, NOW. You don't belong there. Before you accuse the Japanese of racism, look at your own country.
The U.S. has had the Ku Klux...
