  I'm sorry for considering that there might be other factors involved. Yes, we should always go to the clearly identifiable source of the problem and deal with them forthwith, and not look beyond that. How narrow-sighted I am.

  Excuse me, I have a bandwagon to jump onto...

  And they say 'furriners' have problems understanding the intricacies of the Japanese garbage and recycling systems! Doesn't the daughter know the rules? Didn't she get the memo?

  At least the local authorities in this case didn't take photos of the mother then drop them off at the home of the…

  Anyone considered she may have been suffering from post-partum depression? Hmmm?

  No, it's much easier to demonize and dust off the noose in the back room!

  Lynch-mob mentality indeed.

  You have this totally wrong.

  Reading on in my posts, you have probably realized what you're suggesting in your post is my strategy. However, In some of the cases where I've met these riders, there is no footpath/sidewalk/pavement for them to get up onto - the roads are that…

  but many of these racist comments disgust me.

  Pray tell, where's the racism here?

  One of the joys of Japan for me is the bicycle culture - that so many people embrace such a wonderful method of transport. However, I stand by what I wrote before - for…

  This is very similar to the recent case of the guy taken to a police station after being accused of molesting a girl on a train. He did the bathroom trick too, didn't he? To his death...

  Well, Japanese police don't have the telephone books to 'interrogate' with that the…

  How about enforcing cyclists ride on the correct side of the road, i.e. the left? I have had numerous incidents where, while riding a bicycle on the correct side of a two-way street, I've faced people riding on the wrong side. This has often been on narrow, car filled roads.…
