It would be nice if Japanese men started to respect women and it would be nice if Japanese women started to empower themselves.

Every country has weirdos...we all know that. But the point is some have more than others.
Take 100,000 random dudes from Canada, America and Japan. I'll bet you 100 Yen Japan will have more gropers, panty collectors, sexual harrassment, panty sellers, flashers, rapists, pedophiles, stalkers, up skirt picture takers and dudes that read porno in public.

Why would they start questioning officers? What made them think it was one of their own? Why were the other officers suspects to begin with?
As usual, much info is missing.

Stats are of course useful but do not always present an accurate picture in context. I'm just guessing but it seems to me that crime (or anything of a negative nature) gets under reported or hidden quite a bit in Japan. Heck, if all the groping cases alone would get reported/filed the stats would go through the roof.
I guess it could be a coincidence that in my home country I only saw/heard a small fraction of this kind of stuff going on...but I am guessing it's more than coincidence.

I guess if all of America were Catholic this would apply. But last time I checked there were many different religions represented in America. If you are a politician you represent the people...not your own self-interests.

Japan is not like every other country in that respect.
In my experience Japan is at the top of the list for sex crimes, fetishes, groping, mentally ill people wandering in public without a guardian, number of people that have few interpersonal social skills, number of hostess bars, depictions of rape in comics/magazines, love hotels, looking at porno on the rush hour trains and on and on....
All countries ARE NOT the same. Countries have different values, norms and laws. They all have their good points and bad points. This is one of Japan's bad points.

There's a lot missing to this story.
The dude was in someone's backyard. The cops responded to a call. When the cops confronted him he ran. They later located him and attempted to take him into custody. He resisted. He physically attacked two officers. He tried to take an officer's gun from the holster.
It's stupid to run from cops. It's even more stupid to physically attack cops. It's game over when you try to take away a police officer's gun.
This guy was an idiot.

Per San Jose news--
A man in his 20s died Wednesday night after being shot with a Taser by a San Jose police officer who was attempting to take him into custody.

I'm not sure but I think public intoxication is against the law in USA, so that would make him a criminal. I think resisting arrest is also against the law. And certainly physically attacking two police officers is against the law. Sounds like a criminal to me.
