"Japan is no longer "Low Crime". It is much more dangerous than my small hometown in the American midwest. No one is shot, stabbed, or kicked to death!"

Totally agree ! Violence in Japan has been off the charts these past 10 years. The difference is, in Japan they hide…

How many of you out there have children ? Well then I'm sure you've seen this scenerio before. You tell the youngster to stop banging on the table, and they respond with "I'm only doing this" and proceed to bang a little more. Welcome to the world of Cleo !…

"It's about damn time Japan start acting in its interests instead of groveling and appologizing for things they did almost 100 years ago."

When exactly has Japan "ever" groveled or apologized for things they did almost 100 years ago ? I'd really like to know ! Japan has never groveled,…

"Nation stunned" ? Surely you jest ! Every single Japanese in my office that I talked to had absolutely no interest, they couldn't care less about Japanese politics... yes I know, there-in lies the problem. The Japanese have become so accustomed to poor leadership that they actually accept it now…

Caveman, I can agree with you on this, "I do not approve of Cleo's words", but I can't agree with you on the rest. The so-called statement you refer to appears to be in response to media questions and the circus that there-in follows. Posters like Cleo look for any…

There's a lot of emphasis on Japan and Japanese in this article. But for the record, Nishikori lives in Florida, trains at the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy, and is coached by Glenn Weiner ! Take all that away and he's still a triple digit ranked player !

11 prime ministers in 15 years ! Japan has become the joke of Asia with it's inability to produce any kind of stability among it's politicians. Why the masses have not raged in the streets is just as amazing. Time to throw out the diet... bring in a real democratic…

Americans must be tired of all them illegal Mexicans crossing the US border to seek safety and refuge from their homeland, literally awash in crime ! Takes a great nation to tolerate such a fiasco. No wonder the USA is contemplating a multi-million dollar fence to seperate the two !…

Once again Japan's government is set to interfere in the domestic markets. It's no wonder the Japanese pay some of the highest prices in the world for imported goods. Many other countries import products because they are cheaper ! Not Japan ! Japan does everything possible to protect their local…

After watching Japan's extremely poor performance in the Olympics, I am convinced Iguchi, as well as Igawa, could return to Japan and be "stars" ! Obviously two "experiments" gone horribly wrong ! Lets hope MLB has taken note, and I think they have ! I look for MLB scouts to…
