About time too. Never give in to fascist intimidation. I'm still boycotting Prince hotels because of their pathetic behaviour in this case.

scrote - anyone can stand up to the Prince hotel. Be a man and confront the right wing. then i would be impressed.

The Prince hotel is probably owned by gangsters who have contacts in the right wing who already leaned on them to cancel the event.

This is very good news. I too am boycotting Prince Hotels and urging everyone I know to do the same thing.

"The hotel and the four executives, including the president of Prince Hotels, will be sent to prosecutors Tuesday on charge of violating the hotel operation law."

The police are going to bundle up a hotel and four hotel execs in a nice little package and send it to the prosecutors office? I'd hate to be the Kuroneko guy who has to lug that particular package up to the front door.

I do not stay at big expensive hotels. Waste of money. I hope the teachers' union found a better place.

Unions are not a bad thing. In fact, as their jobs here are so cushy they would be powerless.

Cushy? Teachers?

BWwaaaHAHAHAhahaha!! There's nothing "cushy" about the day-to-day work load of public school teachers in Japan.

I wonder if we can apply this law to Alpha 1 hotels too, for their refusal of allowing foreigners to stay in one of their hotels in 2006?
