Like yeah, nobody will ever notice it "up in the closet", reeking or not. Just plain dumb actions by a sick and obviously unintelligent individual.

@2020hindsight "I wouldn't say so. At 14 my parents didn't accompany me to and from soccer practice. I went by myself" I think the point was that the parents should have taught them some moral values, not that they should have followed them around everywhere.

Jefflee "Artificial sweeteners pose no health risks. The FDA states that aspertame, etc., are among the most extensively tested substances in human history, and they have yet to find any link to any health problems in people." And you believe the FDA which gets millions of dollars in payoffs from MONSANTO? Check what a REAL MD says (who is not paid off by anyone" about aspartame and the other sweeters at mercola.com

This is the scary thing in Japan. When a crime occurs with no motive, you really can't protect yourself. In the west, don't walk by yourself at night, avoid bad neighborhoods, but here, 5pm daylight hours in a store parking lot! What can you do except be paranoid and look around all the time? Too dangerous here.

kyoken "Out of obligation they had put in long overtimes, just as they do today." Then why do most of my Japanese business students show up at my conversation school a little after 6:00 every night? Not working so late, my friend. And going out drinking after work, that is considered "work" in Japan, is NOT considered work where I come from!

minello17 ". Really we should all feel a little guilty" What for? What did WE do to this guy? Most homeless in Japan are "professional" homeless, as hundreds of my Japanese students have told me. They like the stress free life and wouldn't work even if they could.
