Interesting story about wacky Japan. What about all the guys on the Saikyo Line who get on the trtains just to grope each other and have sex with each other on board? I wonder how many of them will be caught this week....

To refer to the Sanya district of Tokyo as "skid row" (an American English term) is an insult to the original American area to which it was applied. The Sanya district is in reality a Burakumin Ghetto, a place the previous Japanese Government didn`t even allow to be put on the map. It is a place of discrimination, the shame of Tokyo. Why does this JT article ignore this fact? Is JT trying to be politically correct? In the article, the word "decrepit" is spelt with a "t" -is that the American spelling? In British English, it is spelt with a "d."
Juyst because the Sanya district has become popular with foreign tourists not wishing to be ripped off elsewhere in Tokyo, and just becuase the area now has "chic bars" can never disguise the awful truth about the shamefulness of the area.

Has Free Speech disappeared from America? All this guy Wilson did was to call Obama a liar! Most politicians are liars, we all know that. He was stating the obvious. Why all the fuss. Surely a political arena is where people are allowed to express their views, however distasteful, freely? Obama`s America seems to be becoming more like the old Soviet Union every day.

Excuse my ignorance, but what the heck is a "notory public?" If that is an English expression, I`ve never heard it in my life before. As regards this animal - he should be locked up for good, preferably with some other sexual deviants who will treat him as he deserves. What a sicko.

I like Mr Hatoyama, but I am disappointed to learn that his wife is dillusional and needs psychiatric treatment.

"Japan`s Liberal Democratic Party has been put to the sword" - what a beautiful sentence! Mr Hatoyama will do a good job, and I hope he will bring many changes - thats what the Japanese people voted for. We should support him now.

Id like the new government to control and discipline the police, round up and jail Yakuza leadersdecrease taxation, stop building ridiculous things like airports for the transportation of vegetables, introuduce a Human Rights Bill, jail people who practice any form of discrimination, bring justice and equality to the Pension system, outlaw discrimination against foreigners in universities, reform totally the Education Ministry and get rid of the Rightists in it who try to hide the truth from the youth of Japan, demolish Yasukuni Shrine of Hate and establish a National War Memorial free from War Criminals, abolish Consumption Tax and increase taxes on booze and expecially cigarettes, introduce a blanket ban on smoking in all public places. That will do for starters. Japan then might become "beautiful."

What a sick cow. Whether she hted the father or not, she had no right to destroy her innocent child. I hope she never becomes a mother again. She should be locked up for a long time, and given psychiatric treatment.

Congratulations to the Japanese people for joining the rest of the Free World at last and changing it government! I am completely elated at the demise of Soka Gakkai Alliance of scoundrels frpm political power at last. They vertainly got the comuppance they so richly deserved. Now lets get behind the new government and support them in their efforts to change japan for the better. I hope they start with a Bill of Human Rights, and make discrimination punishable by imprisonment and heavy fines. RThey would rake in plenty of dosh that way.

Time for British and American troops to get out of there. The President is corrupt, and merely a puppet put in place by the Americans. The govermnent and legal system is also corrupt. I say get out now and leave them to it. The Taliban are evil monsters, born out of evil extreme Islamism. They have no place in the civilised world. Blanklet-bomb their hideaways and then leave.

Thw only thing that approaches reality in this article are the vague references to connections between Shintoism and Judaism. For more on this, read the book "The Japanese and the Jews."

The person who wrote this drivel does not know anything about the REAL Jesus, and this article about Him living in Aomori is the worst garbage I have read in a long time. Why does JT print such inane rubbish?

Group bullying. Group rape. Yokoso Japan! Totally sick and depraved. This is just the tip of the rotten iceberg, too. Lots of this kind of thing goes on here in Japan, but is seldom reportted to the authorities.
