  That's really sick. I wonder if he was using the head for a bowling ball and puppet when he was drunk or sober. If he was stone sober then this is really really sick. And he and his friend were actually bragging about this deed? That is totally sick. I…

  Copy cat, yes, like the other knife attacks of late. But there is a difference. At least this knifer had a clear motive for attacking his victim. It wasn't a random attack because he was having problems with his mother or his dog.

  It's that season again. This show is not about disarming the world's nuclear arms--an impossible task without a radical change in the social order--but about perpetuating the myth that Japan was the worst victim of World War II. Indeed the A-bombs caused great suffering, but millions of people suffered in…

  I have been writing it here for months: There is knife-wielding maniac epidemic in Japan and getting worse. It is not only happening here (as BBC recently noted in its piece centering knife crime in the UK). But that is small comfort for anyone (especially a woman) who must spend…
