Back at the old vic he was know to be a predator. And would cross boundaries to see what he could get away with. Multiple friend shared stories of uncomfortable behaviour back in the early 2000s. Matching what people i trust told me to the procecutions testamonies brought me to my conclusion.

Near me was a nice old carpenter and i don't mean a daiksun i mean a proper craftsman. We were close and i took some local woodworkers to see his place and they all just scoffed at it even though he was willing to teach them all he knew and hand it over for free. I lost all respect for said daiksuns that day. Remove kids games and switch on their brains could be a step in the right direction.

Like aaron above said a big NO.
The breaking distance "left" by most motorist is a total joke. I was drving yesterday in the rain will a massive truck on my ass in the pouring rain. If i had to break suddenly my vw would have been squashed like a can of soda.
Increase poor driving fines like undertaking, running red light, crossing speeding and usinh ur phone would be a better start.

@ John:they were both very young, what a terrible murder. Not sure if his parents have done anything after the police advice. He is still young too. If parents had talked to him constructively, he might have moved on with his life.
He is 22 not 12.

The number also included a Nara police department head who was given a pay cut for his department’s failure to prevent the assassination of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in Nara last July.
sorry, but wasn’t his security mostly provided by the Japanese version of the Secret Service?! Why was this poor sap disciplined?
Nope Abe had one body guard (the guy who lifted the breifcase with a steel plate inside, a second too late. The rest were local boys in blue.

I found him in cambodia in the early 2000s and shopped him to the The Sun which made him run to vietnam and then we all know what happened.
He's been in a picknick prison and will sadly live a lush life until his demise.
