The government should return the favor and "kill" 2 channel. It's outlived its welcome.

Why he wants to kill the charming prince in Asia? Yamamoto, very bad human. He does'nt have a reason to kill the charming royal crown prince in Japan. Yamamoto go to hell man.

So many death-threats to VIPs recently. Recently such threats were made on Bush, Blair, Brown and now Prince. I'm sure leaders will be as paranoid as ever.

I bet they snatched him in seconds after his post.

"charged with disturbing the work of Tokyo’s Akasaka Police Station". I would hate to interrupt a game of cards. Reminds me of an episode of the Flintstones. "Were very busy down at the station"

See how easy it is to get arrested and put in jail at governments expense? I think this way is preferrable to that of the old lady last week who went to Shibuya and started stabbing young girls.

Most definitely. It's a haven for Japan's losers & jerks.

Never mind that it helped get a nut job locked up while he was still at the "threaten" stage and before he got to the "take violent action" stage. But what do I know? I am just a caveman.

Maybe get some sort of welfare system started, and it will stop the loonies wanting to be 'looked after' by the government.

maybe someone will do it without posting it online first, just to outfox the security

The jerk was looking for some kind of recognition? Well, he got that.
