This is news?!
I guess it's a reflection of Japan's low crime rate.

My wife threw a package of tissue paper at me yesterday. Marriage councelling to come.

Can Japan really be so peaceful that this is news?
Fighto!
Another loser bum spinging off his parents as an "adult". Don't like the volume? Move out, you are 27 for crying out loud!
Good on the dad for calling the police on this wastrel.

OK then. But we can agree that he is a violent wastrel - even if he shows a bit of remorse when he cools down.
I wonder how many other times he has attacked his parents. I feel sorry for the parents having a son like that.

If this is a crime, then me and my five brothers and sisters would have arrest records a mile long from our childhood. (not violence againd Mom and Dad, but against each other) More injuries from spatting with my siblings than from ever playing sports.

What if the son owned the place. and still paying for the loan, how is he going to do that.
