Bad enough someone would try to steal a bicycle, but to think they were this justified in trying that they should get such revenge for being thwarted?
Can I blame all of America or is it only cool to blame all of Japan when bad stuff happens there?

The Japanese are so strict about nudity. Wait, no they're not. Yes, they are! No they're not! I can't seem to decide.

Church sanctioned mass murder of people trying end the mass murder of cell masses.
I am against late term abortions, but mostly because anybody too dumb or lazy to have done something sooner (like use BC) should just have the baby already and put him or her up for adoption. Or even learn responsibility and take care the baby herself, hopefully with a guy or even the guy.
But a fetus is certainly alive. So is a potted plant.

Who is more sick, the guy who neglects to inform the parents that he is having 3 children enjoying a sleep over at his place, or people who read about it and just have to imagine sex was involved? You just cannot put the words "man" and "girls" in a headline without JQP entertaining a lurid sex image on the spot. Sad people. And sick.

Not only 20/20 hindsight, because they did not know about her so clearly at the time, but you also left out the 29 year old male suspect, the main culprit in both crimes! Is this meant to be comedy?

How unfair of this website to make you have to bend over backwards while doing a half twist and a split in order to bash Japan in this way.
This new little fantasy foray is no more odd than going to watch a movie, or going to the colloseum to watch gladiators fight. You buy a ticket, you sit, you watch, you do nothing but imagine you are involved. It hardly matters if the actors are real or not. Its all the same.

Great timing for a book about her life now that it's over along with her career.
Its amazing how many great people have done drugs, and how many mediocre people haven't. Coincidence?

I am not so sure. The article lacks detail. The purse snatching might have put them on alert so that this was possible at around four in the morning:
But that is just a tiny possible error in a post that was 99 percent spot on. I wish more people were as thoughtful as you anthony39. I would rather bicker over minor details than the big picture that most here completely missed.

I think the real joke is the people who talk and joke loudly while having no clue what it takes to set up a city-wide dragnet to make sure that suspects don't get away in the time it takes even one cop to arrive at a scene.
Its really easy to use your 20/20 hind-sight and say they over-reacted, but when you get middle of the night calls from panicky old ladies and people so completely out of the know like 90 percent of the people above including whoever wrote the article, well then you take the risk of overreacting. If you don't, suspects get away.
Most of you are so dumb, you don't when to complain or when to be thankful, so you just complain 24/7. None of you complainers are sticking your necks out to do this difficult job, and you simply don't have the mental faculties even if you wanted to.
