Japain is no worse than any of the other "more advanced (cough) countries" JTeers constantly brag about. If you're foreigner you get discriminated against and that's that; don't like it?

Do you even know the meaning of inherent? Talk about acquiring rights, since you're not born Japainese, your parents are not Japainese, neither is your granny!

Reciprocal rights for Japainese living abroad are or should be on topic; or are only your concerns that are worth fighting for? Oh, I…

"If I am a permanent resident, pay every kind of tax under the sun, break no laws, and work hard to support all the Japanese collecting benefits, I have the right to vote in local affairs... PERIOD!"

You don't have any inherent right to vote in Japain! You get what…

"Who is defending North K. actions? Certainly not me nor the writer of this article"

You didn't say in so many words, but it can be inferred from your stance and line of argument; Japainese don't have cause to complain about NK because they condone parental abduction! Plain and simple,…

The 'murder' analogy was my way of pointing out that just like there's different degrees of murder, so there's abductions and abductions. Just as you cannot possibly state that there's one only category of murder (hence, first and second degree), you cannot come here defending North K actions on account…

"Japan protects its own citizens but then turns round and criticises NK for the "same crime."

With all due respect, it's not "the same crime". The unlawful killing of another with malice aforethought defines murder; however, murder can become manslaughter if there's no ‘means rea’ involved in the commission of…

While I'm in total agreement with the statement that Japain ought to review their stance on child abductions, what is the point of comparing this with North Korea's abducting Japainese citizens? So, a mother's abduction of her own child is on the same footing with a similar action carried out…

And why isn't anybody mentioning the fact that China's dodgy construction techniques helped turn this natural disaster into a calamity? I'm more than sure you all would be doing just that had this happened in Japain!!! On another note, good for Japain for helping; China will need all the help…

Now getting to the meaty part of it; I don’t want to learn Japainese because it’s just useless as far as I’m concerned. It’s not a deficiency because I don’t even want to attempt it; I’ve got better things to do. Deficient is he who attempted and couldn’t do…

Do the cops in your country speak Japainese when in the presence of a Japainese national? I know for a fact that here in London they don't. My girlfriend’s girl friend was robbed/assaulted and badly beaten up by a complete stranger in the middle of the road; she went…
