Once again religion is forcing its beliefs upon everyone else and grows angry to just get its own way.
Not a massive fan of Lady Gaga but I feel sorry for her young fans there who have had to suffer due to the views of a few religious extremists.

Might as well wave goodbye to more of our taxpayers money which could be better spent in our shores.

LMAO!! Ishihara is a bigger clown than Ronald Mc Donald. You have pretty much just described yourself there!
Who's the one trying to be selfish by using 3/11 to gain the sympathy vote for his own personnel ego? Who's the one thats narrow minded to anyone who goes against his 'race' theory. I think its about time we get the old timer into the retirement home.
He should perhaps just take the hint now that the people of Tokyo and Japan would much rather see the money being spent on helping the people in Tohoku and any other future disasters than some over the top sports event.

Its actually quite a lot of fun when you go with friends to a karaoke place to rent out a room. Only people who wouldn't enjoy them are hikikomori..

Nope I can still see our lovely teenage neighbour and her friends sounding like a bunch of cats being strangled. I don't mind if its the sunday during the day or whatever. But midweek at night when you have a young child and newborn on the way... Not good.

But what if he is guilty of those murders? Would any of you feel sympathy for him then? True he might not of done them but heres the thing. He had motive and there is no evidence to suggest that anyone else would of wanted to kill both his wife and mistress.

Seeing the devastation on NHK this morning. I'd be very surprised if these poor souls are still alive. If the blast didn't kill them are they wearing suitable gear for breathing?

Marcelito it is in reference to a comment I made before about hosting the Olympics in Tohoku rather than Tokyo if Ishihara really wanted to help the people affected by 3/11.

Not surprised Baku didn't get through. The human rights in Azerbaijan are shocking and apparently when they built that arena for Eurovision they just turfed out the residents that were living on that bit of land. Meanwhile I don't believe Doha should of got it because I still disagree with them getting the World Cup and the heat would be unbearable. I also don't believe Spain should get it because of the debt crises.
I do believe in Tohoku 2020 though!

If the tattoo isn't affecting the workers performance then Hashimoto has no right to punish them just because they have a tattoo.
Its about time this negative attitude towards tattoos are eradicated in Japan. Before tattoos became associated with crime they were seen as for spiritual and decorative purposes around 10,000 BC. Now tattoos are seen as fashionable among the younger generation. I've got a fair few tattoos but thankfully I've not had any issues so far. Might be because I'm gaijin and pretty much always accompanied by a young daughter and pregnant partner. So I don't fit the bill for yakuza.

Shame I don't work there for them. I would tell them where to go. I'm sorry but out of work hours the employer doesn't have the right to dictate what the employee does.

Or is it just me that would find it strange that you are considered old enough to consent to sex at 16 but not capable enough to decide if you want a cheeseburger or carrot sticks?

It was well known at my school that I exercised a lot. I was one of the sporty people in school. However if anyone did think they could also eat the same amount and not exercise. Well thats not my issue, the schools issue or the governments issue. I believe the majority of people in this world have common sense? Well by the age of 16 I'd hope they would.
I do agree that in say primary school (elementary/ Junior High for people not used to the UK system) the children should have the option of either a packed lunch or a healthy and balanced meal at school. However once you reach say high school I believe you are old enough to make your own decisions on what you would like to eat.
