    You don't know what they are blocking! You can't! You can only take their word for it. Scary stuff.

    So you are saying to take your word that the Japanese government is blocking website? You offer no proof of things you can't find. I can search for info on making…

    Japan has blocked my access to sites several times with an official customs page!

    Don't know what sites you can't access. I haven't had that issue having been here almost as long as the Internet has.

    Maybe you are talking about sites outside Japan that block access from other countries.…

    You cannot chose either name yourself, instead some bureaucrat assigns you a name and it's entered in the official roles

    Uh edogawa, where the heck are you getting your "facts"?? I have researched the topic, and the only rule is that names have to be in approved Kanji, katakana, or…

    For all of you who are blaming the kids, news sources say that the kids were three isles away from the first shelf to fall over. The shelves fell like dominos, with the third shelf to fall landing on the girls.

    The government should allow Japanese citizens living overseas to vote by mail or other means that don't require a visit to a Japanese embassy or consulate.

    Japanese can vote by mail. Your information is quite outdated. If you doubt me, ask the Foreign Ministry. www.mofa.go.jp/mofaj/toko/senkyo/vote2.html

    Those so called "different nationality"…

    Eliminate the "special" permanent resident thing; make all those Koreans born and raised here citizens or send them back the their "home" country.

    I would imagine that TENS if not HUNDREDS of Japanese had driven past them and thought 'okashii na' and kept on their merry way.

    Maybe they all remember the case of the gentleman a few months who picked up a little girl who got lost trying to find her grandmother's…
