By my calculations, 1961 to 2012 is 51 years. If he had been sentenced to life imprisonment, he would have been out decades ago. so he not only gets a double life imprisonment sentence, he also gets to swing!? Is that next clatter of keys in his cell door his daily riceball, or the hangman?
Cruel and unusual punishment? Unbelievable. Guilty or not, hasn't he paid for it?
Shame on you Japan

I got done for speeding once in Tokyo. It cost me 80,000 yen. Since then I always observe speed limits, which is an extremely dangerous thing to do due to constant tailgating by drivers who try to intimidate (honking horns, flashing lights, shouting, giving me the finger, punching my window at traffic lights - I always lock my doors from inside) and totally ignore speed limits and most other traffic rules.
The police do nothing but occasionally stand outside their kobans leaning on their big sticks trying to look tough, while all manner of insane driving habits go on right in front of their noses.

Marine park in Taiji? Is this not just the same as trying to get tourists to go to Tohoku? Just pretend that bad things don't exist. Semblance of normality is all that counts.

Real beer and football, of course. And friendly people..
