Such a great idea indeed! So to stop gun crime we have armed gunmen on patrol?...Hmm maybe a severe tightening of gun control or indeed guns being outlawed altogether would be better. it's simple, if you don't have a gun you can't shoot anyone!

He supports his country......Well of course he does that is hardly a bad thing and He did say "what I say doesn't count" and "When asked by the media if he would ever consider filming on the islands, he replied he would not as it is a sensitive issue and there would be nothing to gain."
So at least he is more sensible than the Argentinian government in their Island dispute over the Falkland Islands.

The first thing that went through my mind was what happened to Litvinenko in London but the main thing is a man has passed away so R.I.P Shinichi Nishimiya!

I'm sorry but even the author of the article can see how ridiculous nay cynical Romney's actions are "Romney plays God card in swing state struggle" If he done that in the UK he would have been more or less laughed at. Religion and politics should be separate always.

The disputed islands are uninhabited yes? so why would China and Japan even bother about them seriously! As for the Uighur thing I think China would be angry if we held them in the UK (So that is a silly tantrum!)

Anglootaku The FBI are getting involved because of the American class action law suit I would think! Woodford himself said he has all faith in the japanese police to get to the bottom of things!

If this happened in the U.K there would be a massive public out cry and investigations into it. Japan needs to allow for more transparency at any cost!

I'm from Scotland and have always wanted to be japanese or to live in Japan. I have never had a problem with different ethnic groups goodness knows the west of scotland fight between ourselves anyway. I think if/when I get to Tokyo I want to spend a'lot of time with the Nigerian community to help me get a better understanding of all the people of Japan.
