That will teach them

as we cannot have the morally decrepit walking among us.

Holy Jesus Christ! Yeah just lock them up! That will them right? Poor man.

Au contraire! Guess this will happen cause some Trump allies are in the tobacco industry (strong lobby)

It does not take much to be considered a criminal in Japan... Good skills though! I used to roller skate in the subway of Paris (the coating on the floor was super smooth), thrilling experience, bit dangerous I agree but i never made the news... nor those guy should.

There will be a time where there won't be snow at all

I can't get tired of this record. The pain in his voice, the set list, arrangements, guests and covers made this performance unique and an instant classic.

It would be nice if one day Japan evolves on that topic and stop prosecuting pot smokers. Waste of time, money and police resources.

Police said the woman had with her a physical disability card indicating she was visually impaired.

Is it to let us know she was not lying about being blind, and did not fake her fall to her death?

Anyway, bowing should become normal in all rugby games around the world. 

Why? That's clearly a Japanese thing. In Europe they clap. Would be weird for the 6 nations teams to bow at the end of each game.

Their motives are clearly political. They wish to control their own country. They see their U.S. backed countrymen as puppets and traitors. Perversion of religion is used for recruitment, but that is NOT the primary motivation for the Afghan Civil War.

I completely agree, I was mostly pointing out that praying won't help much...

Only 15? How about using priority seat and pretending to sleep when an elderly/pregnant/handicapped person shows up?

Fact? I don’t think that word means what you think it does.

A fact is a thing that is known to be consistent with objective reality and can be proven to be true with evidence.

Seems to be a fact that she killed the baby by dumping him on the river bank and admitting to the crime...

She still killed a infant tho.

That's a fact not a judgment.

Wealthy or happy what I meant is that we know nothing of her and you decided she had a bad life based on the fact she has sex for money. That's pretty judgmental

the crumbling danchi of East Tokyo.

haha nicely put. Ben leaving in Katsushika-ku for 12 years and loving it! Tateishi area has so much vibe . If you guys are looking to take a trip back to Showa Jidai hit this spot.

It's good that Japan is showing more lenient sentences fro drug use, a step in the right direction. Now let's make sure that it applies to gaijins too!

4 years old is fine without hand holding,

This story proves you wrong. Not sure if you have kids but in my case it's not fine. Anyway just my opinion, not raging.

Forgive me for doubting you, but people regularly claim what they've read elsewhere, and then it turns out they've misinterpreted what they read. It's not that I doubt you specifically, just that people are so often wrong on this site, without supporting links, it's pretty safe to assume that the claims are not correct.

No worries!

The boy had been accompanied to an area near the intersection by his father but was crossing the lights by himself.

there's nothing here that can logically be used to determine they weren't holding his hand.

The fact that only the kid got hit maybe?

Sure the police is to be blamed 99%.

1% goes to the parents letting a 4 years old crossing the street without holding his hand.

As for Ambulance being slow, you can't drive too fast with a patient in the back... especially if he has IV in his/her arm.

Is there a valid argument against same sex marriage?

He must be fun at parties

That's too bad because whenever I wanted to smoke outdoor and could not, I used to rush to the nearest elementary school to light up... Damn Japan, you are changing!

But Minke Whales are not.

Let's read the article.

".. the Japanese whalers brought ashore one of their first minke after the resumption of commercial hunting"

Let's read further:

Japan's fisheries agencies has set a quota for commercial whale hunting through December of 227 whales -- 52 minke, 150 Bryde's and 25 sei whales.

and a separate trilogy by "Last Jedi" director Rian Johnson.

No please no no no... Not Rian Johnson...

including a trilogy by David Benioff and D.B

Again no, they are demonstrating that without GRRM original material they can't write characters and logical story lines...

As a fan I want Star wars to rest in peace in our hearts an on bluray. Write original stuff guys!!

Problem with rock music, is that it requires a minimum of music savviness (not as much as jazz or classical of course) but still need the ability to appreciate a nice guitar riff, bass line or drum solo and angry lyrics. Today R&B and mainstream hip hop are on top because it's not disturbing, no message, no soul, only bling and flexing pushed by the media to sell their stuff... But i'm hopeful there always be kids grabbing a guitar or drum stick and readying to rock in their parents' garage! Long live rock n' roll.

France would never put a millionaire in jail.

I'm offended. This objectifies women.

Hope this is sarcasm

Wouldn't it have been easier to take pictures of the license plate?

It was his car he probably knows the make/model and plate number...

Well I'll stick to my raspberry pi, for half the price play PSX, Gamecube, NES, SNES, NEO GEO, Mega Drive, etc...
