Yes, there was a flurry of activity going on all over Japan. Notably the mayors of Nagasaki and Hiroshima, as well as the various citizens groups were all up early this morning to respec. write letters and plan protests. Not.

Well, he did cave in quickly. Spineless guy. He only did the hospital trip routine. He could have at least tried the oxygen hooked up wheelchair waza. Wonder if it had come to this, if LDP boss Mori hadn't blabbed about his drinking habits.

Seems odd that one doesn't notice a substantial different weighing suitcase. Anyway, why would they have deported him? They put him behind bars during trial and he subsequently overstayed his visa?

Many years ago, applying for a credit card at my bank, I was told they could only issue me one if I had permanent residency. It was easier to get my permanent resident visa, than a credit card from my bank. However, at the time, Nicos gladly issued me one…

Where is anti-furist Sugimoto Aya when you need her. Maybe she can slap and spank some sense into this guy.

There were 8 more cops boozing at this barbecue party. This particular cop seemed to have been pretty drunk, but his colleagues nevertheless let him drive away. According to the present law, they should all be arrested and be held responsible. Back to Honda Cub/Koban duty I would say.

In Japan? How is it possible. Just a while back they showed a prison on tv, where all inmates seemed quite content, happily chewing on their bowls of barley. All staged of course for fear of having to face the Pooper Poker or being treated to a high pressure colon…

Moron seems a bit harsh, unless he is one of those drivers flaunting every traffic rule in the book. Gullible, yes. He even paid the restaurant bill for this guy, twice.

Well, he's lucky to be alive. The prisoner who got a high pressure water hose shoved up his behind wasn't so lucky and died (murdered). One guard got a suspended sentence for it.
