You know, there is no defending the guys actions. The girl's character and/or past actions may be an indicator of something else. Got it.

The point is the man was caught doing something, and the victim is 14. Military courts-martial is the end of this guys career. And once he…

This is similar to those that think having a salad is the way to loose weight. Sure, if your dressing is some vinegar (really, 0 calories), and you do not have any cheese or meat on it.

What I see on the US Bases here is women who go to…

Loki: You have it right. The rally here was against US forces, and the prosecutor dropped the charges. And in the article above, the Okinawa rally was mentioned twice. Why? It had nothing to do with her case, and the 14 year old was not even raped (if she was,…

This looks like two spunked-on burgers, a bit of onion, speared on a chopstick. I'll bite me nails rather than eat this bag o' cack.

I was going to say that they took two burgers, stacked them, and put some type of "sauce" over it. What gives with the…

As far as this being a crime, the woman should be charged with negligent homicide. Why? She chose to go play pachinko instead of caring for her child. She abandoned the child in the car so as to amuse herself. Yeah, the crime fits.

And there will be more of…

booboo: That is the real problem here. Japan does not support the handicapped, period. Germany does have a better social system, and they do take care of their citizens better (I lived there for over 10 years). The baby hatches there were meant for the teen pregnancies, where the father…

Oshikiri said, “If I had a boyfriend, I wish he would take me out driving. I have a driver’s license but my friends always drive.”

It never ceases to amaze me how many stunning women cannot find a boyfriend. Walk around Tokyo any evening or weekend and all you see…
