I'm very much against capital punishment in these cases. People get desperate and do stupid things. Let them learn from their mistakes and teach others not to repeat them. Please don't take their lives.

Any chance of some self reflection from the people who assumed his family were providing him money? Oh, it's the internet, right! Shoot first, never think.

No. The family's money should still be investigated. Everyone should be a suspect until proven innocent. We shouldn't just assume innocence.

I'm an American in Japan. I'm not white, nor am I black, Asian or Hispanic.

Just like 日本人論 cannnot fully represent something as diverse as the people of Japan, neither do your comments make sense in describing "Americans." After all, the U.S. is a huge salad of diversity.

I just read in the news that the police have narrowed down to the area where Ichihashi was hiding.

This is depressing. It just shows how deeply the private insurance companies have their hands in the Senator's wallets.

Very sad that these selfish Senators would prevent millions of people from getting the public option they want just to keep profits to the companies that support them.

This is a very difficult question to answer.

There are two problems, one, the embarrassment of the other guy and yourself if you are wrong. Major meiwaku.

Two, the danger involved. This is a guy who is trying to get away with murder. He has a huge price on his…

I don't see how people can support this without knowing any information. What's the difference between this and a Japanese expat secretly taking their child to Japan? If you think that is wrong, then it would be hypocritical to support this case.
