Seems fairly clear cut, charge him, fine/jail him and crew and then deport back to China.

Legal actions is much louder than words. Arrest and fine the guy. Know when to act, how to act and where to stop.

the chinese , think because they have 1.300.000.000 people , they think they are superiour , but they have forgotten that 60 years ago they had famine , and the japanese were a big seapower ( although they were our enemy )

It takes hundreds of years for coral to grow just a few inches, and just a few minutes for it to be destroyed.

Fine him heavily then sink the boat or place it up for sacraping.

Not sure who you mean by "our" as you don't sound Chinese or Japanese - more like Dutch or South African with that username. The Chinese will use this as propaganda against the Japanese, as per usual in a situation like this (although 42km off Miyako is WELL inside J borders as the article states).

Can't wait to see how the Chinese blow this out of proportion

I expect this one to be non-news in a matter of days. Fine paid, go home, done. If China does do anything it will be to send some more ships to the Senkakus just to stir the pot there.

I did a search for "canadian, US., waters, arrest, and fishing" I got one hit from over 10 years ago.

Did another search for "american candian waters arrest fishing" and got one hit from three years ago.

Says a lot.

@ JTDANMAN

Are you going to tell us what you think that says or are you going to keep it a secret?
