Japanese taxpayers are not only paying to feed and house the foreign criminals, but as an added extra, are even paying them wages for the work they perform in prison. In most countries, the article asserts, this would be unthinkable.

Okay, first is this supposed to mean that only Japanese…

This kind of crime isn't new and this is why I always lock my bag to my bicycle while I'm riding. I loop the plastic coated chain through the bag handles and then the handlebars. You can also get a special net to go over your basket at any bicycle…

Oh! And shall we get into her "Alaska First" ideas? This is fun! Any other great achievements of hers we can talk about?

"Officials of the Alaskan Independence Party say that Palin was once so independent, she was once a member of their party, which since the 1970s has been…

Whitehawk: Are you serious? Look I wouldn't defend a Democratic candidate just because they were Democratic so why defend her - just because she's Republican - unless of course you do agree with some of her finer achievements, such as leaving Wasill $20 million in debt largely by pushing through…

SpecialReportsUS: Get a clue. Americans bought over 12 million Britney Spears albums so it's not as if you can really trust their choices after all.

As for the press loving scandals, that's another laugh and straight out of the Republican playbook. When the media went after the young Chelsea Clinton…

serendipity and buggerlugs: Wake up! I don't think you could find too many 12-year old kids in either Japan, the States, England or Australia who don't know what suicide is. Sure we'd like them not to be aware of it but sadly they are and I find it hard to…

blue tiger: I certainly hope you're joking or you've lost any respect I had for you over some of your previous posts. To think that women are so simple and narrow-minded that they would vote for Palin because they no longer have the option of voting for Hillary is as…

kimigano: It's just a juvenile prank. Time to lighten up.

I hope you're joking. The man in question is 33 years old, far beyond the age of a juvenile and what he did is a crime not a prank. Perhaps you misunderstand the difference between the two concepts.

This might sound like a trivial matter, after all they're just underwear, right? But if you read a few true-crime stories you'll be surprised at how many serial rapists and killers started out as "petty" criminals caught for stealing panties, masturbating in public or peeping in windows.
