@tmarie write up something either about being anti-Japan, anti-emperor or anything that questions how foreigners get treated
No foreigners or foreign assets will be harmed. That's for sure. Give me a link or concrete prove where foreign assets get looted and vandalized in Japan then we'll talk.

@smithinjapan why you always suggesting force (if china wants it, they'll get it). Is that how you settle your issues? By brandishing your power?
If china or south korea really has a solid proof that they own these islands then they should settle it over ICJ and get it done and over with.

Seems like Lee has a very short memory.
A little less than 2 years ago NK bombed SKean island and it almost went into an all out war.
And just over 2 years ago NK torpedo SK's warship killing 46 sailors.
I think he should watch his back instead of instigating a fight.

@Frank Vaughn
I concede that with guns the death toll probably would have been higher
That's the idea!
We can't stop crimes, there'll always be a nutjob somewhere trying to prove their points.
But we can reduce the mortality rate by banning guns when that happened.

@Herve Nmn L'Eisa
Had even one person at the scene been armed(aside from the nutjob), the shooter could have stopped before so many were victimized
Why stopped at one, why not the entire movie goers?
Can you imagine what would happen?

shufu and alladin, Sex is one of the most basic needs of human.
Just because many don't have it that doesn't mean they don't have the urge. Why do you think there's so many of us?
God bless this service and all other services for the disabled.

S7ro9kGm3aQ The amount of westerners I've met in Japan who are capable of speaking almost perfect Japanese with excellent pronunciation far outweighs the number of Japanese I've met who can speak English to the same level
Looks like you haven't met enough Japanese yet during your stay. I've some of them who speaks both natively.

I think the International peace keepers should intervene and stationed inside the conflict zones. That way both sides wouldn't dare to fire rockets or make incursion, I hope.
It would be funny though if Hamas fire rockets and hit the peace keepers.

I'm a non Japanese Asian and after have been living in Japan for 7 years, I truly believe that Japan's imperial ambition is long dead when they declared unconditional surrender.
Most Japanese have little patriotism to their own country, they do show it though with passion during sporting events. On the flip side 'other' Asian countries brain washed their people to hate other Asian countries which is not good for world peace.

Linux maybe a better OS however, it is still far far away from being user friendly to average users.
I don't know about now but, just to install a simple flash player I had to untar the package and run the script manually. It doesn't sound too complex but if you ask average joe to do that, he will go, Huh?
Maybe Linux does not have to be mainstream because it bears a lot of responsibility and may kill Linux innovation.

What's so freaky about her? Your comment freaks me out even more actually. Have you seen her on TV or hear her speaks, she is totally a woman.
I agree that she might not be appropriate introducing the movie, but I don't understand why you so freaked out about her sexuality
