  And that's my point exactly. Zero tolerance and at the same time, and educated teaching staff that makes both gets the bullies out of the system until such times as they reform and also makes it acceptable to 'inform' staff of problems. Anyone that thinks standing up and slugging it…

  nandakandamanda: OK, here's my take on it again. The Scandinavian societies have a pretty good grip in the problem in the schools at least. Your reference to a quasi Stasi society are just silly but I take your point albeit exaggerated. The Canadiens have in some places at least, also…

  sarge/Notginger: enough of the David Goliath stories. Things rarely, if ever pan out like this and only a fool would believe it. The issue is to find sensible ways to curb this problem, not your super boy reminiscences.

  What a truly sad state of affairs... Japan has to be walloped with a big stick every time it gets out of line with its inner craving for cultural uniqueness, therefore exemption from common sense. The yukotojos of this world will always be around craving the old days. One wonders…

  What's the best way? Simple... Follow the Scandanavian examples of a 'zero tolerance policy'. Every kid in every school knows it's totally unacceptable and that message is constantly reinforced y the staff, all staff. Listening Mombusho morons?

  yukotojo: Can you select and play another track on your record? You've labored aka cut and pasted the same point three times now. Good for a laugh but not much else? Yawn...

  True, there's no country free from war crimes, not a single one. The question isn't one of parity, rather excess. And excess is what the Japanese Imperial forces excelled at. Bayonet practice on decapitated heads, pregnant women singled out for bayoneting, the sheer savagery of their rabid excesses is what…

  seansezso: We're not that much apart on the issue and I suspect pathat isn't either. Here's some reference on Hirohito's decision to quit visiting Yasukini in as early as 1975

  seansezso: How would the Emperor have felt? Don't you read? He'd gone on record through his secretary's revelations of his notebooks that he hated the fact that his wishes hadn't been adhered to, and that their remains be interned elsewhere. That revelation was made about two years ago.

  So at…

  yukotojo: Like your nomdeplume and the lunatic grand daughter living in Tokyo, Tojo himself was a complete nutter. I'm reminded of the Monty Python skit with the knight losing limb after limb and wanting to continue the fight. So it was with Tojo. Even after two nukes, the idiot wanted…
