You're probably just joking around, but do you mean "the action part (the groping) is illegal, but the reaction part (the citizen's arrest) is perfectly legal"?
Second note: Kudos to you, Hachisuka-san!

Komatsu Airbase is in Ishikawa Prefecture, on the coast of the Sea of Japan.
My take on this is: the Japanese military did here as they did with the H1N1 virus scare, took preemptive action; they took caution and planned accordingly. Do I think they went overboard? Probably. What the article does not say is how many jets were scrambled; if only three were put into action, okay, but if the entire air fleet at Komatsu or otherwise was put into action, totally overboard.

To mindovermatter, martyman, and Ultradude: Where in the article do you see 'US ordinance' or anything related to it? I certainly do not. All I see is "an undetonated land mine from World War II." which does not suggest any specific country. The fact that it's in a place where both US and Japanese soldiers fought means nil in this matter. No one can prove nor disprove who placed it. Kwatt: That is an issue in another place, and is unrelated entirely. Please leave that out. No one is at fault for this unless/until a CSI team investigates the explosion, finds all the obliterated pieces of the mine, and puts peices together that might show a serial number or other such name. Please re-read the article and get all the known facts straight before commenting. On an unrelated topic, to dennis0bauer: The police officer is a public official. His name must be kept for security reasons. I'm not sure which law(s) dictate this so.
