Wow, what a surprise that sarcasm is against this woman having access to the club. Thank God more enlightened people than him exist, or blind people would not be: skiing, running marathons, climbing Mt. Everest, playing softball and golf, or the dozens of other things they are doing. Because, my…

These people don't need any reasons to protest against American forces and then you have a dumb ass who wants to shoot up the Quran.

No I don't think it was a bad enough act to have protest and killings, but they don't listen to reason. They just take the…

Until some years ago Japan's LDP party ranked up there with N.Korea and Cuba as the parties which had been in power the longest. I think it took less than a year before the LDP got back in power again. Look at the US. The 2 main parties are basically…

What baffles me is how many here equate justice having been served with a monetary damages payout, not by the accused rapist, but rather by a third party, namely the Japanese taxpayers. How does this constitute justice?

The man accused of rape in this case has faced no charges whatsoever…

True, but you fail to admit that in Japan this matter can be discussed without people being bundled into black vans during the middle of the night by the government for "disrupting public harmony". The problem has been identified and raised repeatedly - and that won't stop until something is…

Alphaape > The reason many did not want this, was because if you give these benefits only after you depart the service, then more people will opt to get out after their initial obligation.

unscrejects : "The GI bill as it stands right now is more scam than reality." I wouldn't put it past anyone in making it into a scam. But, I have to say it worked well for me.

It makes sense. All that imported rice just sitting there was starting to cost the J-govt a fortune in storage. Giving away some of that nasty foreign rice will actually save them money. It wasn't that long ago they were developing ways to use the stuff to make plastics.
