nc-gaijin comments

I joined this website back years ago after my first visit to Japan. I fell in love with Japan and the Japanese people. I’m from the south in the US and Japanese people have southern hospitality on steroids. I think I’ve only commented once or twice. I just read from far away.

When I read Objective’s comment I was so happy. Fear is what is gripping us around the world. We have to get back to our lives. We have to open up or there will be no more country. That goes for every country around the world. My wife is gripped with fear over it and it makes me sad.

China cannot get away for what they have done to the world. Our manufacturing will return back to the States and that is good. We can all see after this event that we cannot be reliant on China for our basic needs.

My thoughts are with Japan always. What an amazing place. My wife wants me to cancel my 50th birthday trip I planned for Japan in July before the Olympics but I refuse to for now. I’m holding out hope and I’ve never been more patriotic in my life. Love and prayers for Japan and the World.
