lillibet comments

Why do the Japan keep spending billions and billions of Yen on weapons? Let the your American overlords defend you, they have over 126 bases in Japan to do it. Stop buying weapons, spend that money on the people.

I was going to comment 'out with old, in with the new'.......but in this case lets just say 'out with the old, in with the old' Is there little wonder Japan is stuck in the past of stupid old laws and traditions.

As a 23yr old German woman I recently watched a video of the bombings of all over Japan. The devastation was horrendus, The US command had a panel of men to decide which cities to use the nuclear bombs on and there was a list of about 10. Tokyo was on the list but when shown arial pictures of what was supposed to be the city, there was nothing there, it was completely gone. They decided on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and we all know what happened there after, the Japanese surrender. Wars do not start for no reason, there is always an under lying grievance, and I include the the war in Europe at the same time. There were a lot of grievances between the US and Japan before the war started, and some will say it was because of US provocations, and the same goes for Europe, between different nations here. I am at the moment studying US history and it is not pleasant, and let no one be under the illusion that the US is a democracy, it is not and never has been.

Even I know, living in the EU, that if the republicans failed to raise the debt ceiling, millions of jobs will be lost in the US, thousands of business's would go bust, and the dollar would cease to be the world currency. The present debt levels were the result of one man, Trump, backed up by his stupid followers in the senate and house and the country at large.

Why would anyone risk riding a bicycle without a helmet, I have seen some injuries cause when riders have only been going a few klms per hr, they have been horrendus. Everyone wear a helmet, if not for yourself but for your loved ones.

Make the place into a public area with lots of grass, trees, and flowers, give ALL the residents something they will enjoy.

While the Russian army holds the line, Wagner munches through fortifications that are manned by NATO's top elite fighters and chews them up like Pacman...........Hi, is that you Vlad? I suggest you read a different comic.

In Indiana they have an open carry law, and a stand your ground law, yet the NRA ban all guns from their convention centres. Now I wonder why that is, fear may be?

Wow!..so many negative comments here. If I were to judge the Japanese people on these alone i would say the vast majority of them do not want an imperialist monarchy. I am from the EU and not a monarchist, they are out dated and the British one especially is far too expensive. I read about King's annual income in a British paper earlier, it is staggering, and most of the people do not know about it because it is all hidden away by paperwork. But If Japan must send anyone to the Kings coronation it should be the Emperor and Princess and not some corrupt politician.

I have never seen her or her family on TV because we have never owned one, all i know is the little I have bothered to read about her and the rest of them. Also, I am on no media sites so do not follow this kind of trash, but I do find it hard to believe she has over 350 million followers.

I am not in the least surprised, the USA has spent over 240yrs, since its inception, fighting wars across the world. I would be surprise to find even one family which did NOT have a gun in their home.

The USA does not recognize Taiwan as an independent country, and I think there are only 6/7 around the world who do. So if they did choose to defend them, who are they defending them from? It would be like Texas declaring independence, no country would recognize them...except Russia, China...etc. But if it came to a war between Texas and the USA, Texas would be on its own, very much like Taiwan will be.

Slight difference here, in Stalin's time this man would be dead already, no trial nothing.

Ah, America, that land of the free and gun violence. This is American culture, you know, the one they are trying to export around the world.

Those dogs are not marching in step, pretty poor show.......lol!

The reasons why politicians do not hold these pathetic meetings on skype or zoom....and just think if they did, no multiple air journeys, no platoons of security guards, no closing down large towns or cities..........is because they want to cause disruption where ever they go. Why, because they like to show us how important they are, no other reason?

Very disturbing, and disgusting, and humane treatment by those in the immigration centre. What this poor woman was made to suffer was tantamount to torture, there is no other word for it. Sadly, I read many stories like this from around the world, where immigration officers act like gods with little or no consequences for the treatment or deaths they cause, because they are acting for their governments.

I hope this poor child is happy to stay with his dad, and good for him calling the police. This horrible woman should get a long prison time and be denied access to any children in the future.

A lot of countries have sex offenders lists, but they in no way cover the countless thousands who slip under the radar. This is a worldwide problem, where so many men think and do what they like to young girls and women. The chances of wiping out worldwide misogyny and sex offenders is zero. Sorry, but that is the truth.

Congratulations to both of you, you have waited too long for your love to come together. Live a happy life :)

Kevin McCarthy is not afraid of what the CCP might do, but he is scared stiff of what a few ultra right wingers in the House will do if he disobeys them. He will lose his job.

ALL social media sites sell there data or let their governments have access to it, Facilebook, and twitter are just 2 examples. All governments spy on their own people, its what they do and have been doing for countless years. The thing is, the people do not care.

Could you ever imagine the likes of Marjory Taylor Greene, or Lauren Boebert representing the USA at a function like this. If Trump does get re-elected there is a chance that MTG will be his VP. So brace yourself Japan, you ain't seen nothing yet.

I saw a video of this young woman giving that 'statue' to the war mongerer, I mean, have any of you ever heard what he said about murdering Ukrainians, anyway, she gave him that statue then sat at the nearest table to him in the room. Hardly the actions of someone who knew there was a bomb right next to her.

Well it has only taken then 60+years. Maybe it will be another 60yrs before they have a gay woman/man or trans person in the crew. But that might be asking for too much.

The majority of these young workers are male.

Place a stringent tax on guns $10,000 per weapon like a handgun, $20,000 for any type of automatic rifle, then tax the ammunition, like $200/500 per round. Then tax anyone owning more than one gun, like $10,000 per gun. Now introduce stringent medical pysch tests to evaluation each prospective owner, compulsory training...and a few more i am trying to think of.

That's most likely what the charges will be about.

Then it’s a low level misdemeanor past the statute of limitations and we move on.

It is not past the statute of limitations, it occurred in 2016. But according to NY state law if the defendant is not resident in that state for the majority of the time the crime remains on the books. And we know Trump was not in NY much during his presidency, he was in Washington or playing golf or visiting places around the world. He probably went there a handful of times, so the crime is still on their books.

I never eat outside my home, but what really bugs me is people shopping whilst glued to their phones, they are always bumping into other people or just standing in the middle of an aisle taking up space.

I suggest the analysts go shopping at a UK super market then maybe they will not be so surprised.
