Tetsujin comments

What was the reason for the arrest? Sounds like a traffic accident to me, he didn't do anything with criminal intent based on the article.

Sadly when I visit my wife's hometown, this is what I have to drink 75% of the time. Her parents get real beer only for special occassions :(

With all the privacy concerns of facebook, I would never want to give them total control over my entire phone, calendar, contacts, email, photos,etc...

Yurie, you sound a little confused in your posts. You said you don't care about the bases because they don't concern you, but then you are really involved in this story concerning bases. You don't want US bases in Japan because you believe it is unnecessary since WWII was 68 years ago. Japan's constitution does not allow it to have an offensive military, only a self defense force. Look at JSDF, do you think they are capable in defending against all the threats in the Pacific? It would be impossible. It is far more advantageous to Japan to allow USA to defend the country.

The comment about preferring criminals to having guns that military members was pretty ridiculous. You obviously have no idea what armed criminals are capable of.

I respect Japanese culture and how they are capable of maintaining a mostly gun free society. As an American, I envy the safety and the low crime rates when I visit Japan, I never feel danger when walking the streets. That is not the same in America where its beneficial to be armed all the time. But I don't think the city around that base needs to rivet in fear over one missing gun.

Seriously, how can any of you assume its foul play just because the mother is 18 years old? None of you know her or know how responsible she is, or what her family situation is. It's rude to make such assumptions without knowing the facts. My son, when he was 10 months old, he was very capable walking, running, and climbing a 30cm ledge. She shouldn't have had the bed position next to the window and have the window open, but there are dozens of unsafe things in everyone's house... making this a horrific accident.

Looks like someone owed the wrong people money and didn't pay up...

Awesome aircraft, I wish I was flying one! The pilots will impress all the ladies on Gate 2 street with their aviation prowess.

Fatfrench... It's called Photoshop

She is only 24 and looks like she is pushing 40...

Why does everyone have to hate on someone becoming successful and getting married? Also, DenDen, who cares about your 23 yr old immature girls? He's 53 and met a beautiful 39 year old woman who he's in love with and they have a cute kid together. I doubt he has interest in a girl less than half his age.

And you can tell by the lights in the office building that many works are burning the midnight oil.

Sometimes even the sidewalks are lined with parked "Kei's" How annoying...

Both these men/women mentioned in this article still have obviously male bone structure. Its kind of disgusting when you recognize it... I feel sorry if a guy accidentally hooks up with one of them.

Japanese beer is great, as long as it isn't Happoshu...

You seriously can't compare Yebisu, Asahi Super Dry, or Kirin to American counter parts like Budwiser or Michelob. Japanese beer blows American beer out of the water. I live in the states now and the Japanese grocery store in my area sells a 12 pack of Asahi Super Dry for $7.99. When I go to a party and people are serving American beer, I just go without drinking because it tastes so horrible. Its kind of like eating sushi in American... it sucks!

This isn't a diet fad, this is how it's been in Japan for thousands of years. Rice and fish = no fat tissue. The Rice/Fish diet will continue forever because what they like that. I really don't mind the skinny Japanese female look, its so much better than the gargantuan McD's look in the USA...

I knew Skeletor would make a comeback!

Georgia is much better, 88 yen at the grocery store and twice as much, tastes better too.

Why can't we just MOAB him already? forget all these trade sanctions...
