Just thought I'd point that out.
[For the record, I get the point you're making in this post. I just wasn't sure if you were being serious in the last part. Stress and lack of sleep are starting to take their toll. =/ ]

I can be sure because of you lack of information and knowledge about the situation, especially Okinawa and Nagoya where parents have been asking their children to avoid Americans at all costs due to their record of paedophilia and rape. I have lived long enough in Japan and have enough Japanese friends to know these as facts as much as I know about my own country. I don't think you can change facts by such logical fallacies.
Over 66% of reported statuary or forcible rapes of under-16s in Japan are committed by American tourists or military forces. The issue is so serious that parents have been asking their school age daughters to avoid Americans at all costs and the legality and diplomacy towards Americans has become a important issue at every elections in Japan, particularly Nagoya and Okinawa. A majority of Americans who visit Japan are either because of their ethnic connection or sex tourism, the later more common among the Caucasian Americans. Over a quarter of child sex tourists in Cambodia or Vietnam are Americans, which is about 80% of the total American tourists visiting these countries. This is interesting as it explain why Americans are culturally so ignorant about South East Asia, they are more interested in spending money having sex with these children and expending resources to make it more convenient in future by ravaging the country with military force. Source
As for stress, I don't think they really have an issue here as I come here during my leisure. And yes, if Americans are really paedophiles as the global statistics seem to show I agree that the Japanese, French, Chinese, etc. are right in keeping their children away from Americans. 1 out of every three pedophile rapist is an American which includes people like high ranking military officials and doctors, they countries where Americans have higher diplomatic immunity. No sane parent really wants their children to be victims of these kind of people. The French government has recently passed laws which enable the DCPJ to try Americans in France itself instead of deporting them back, in instances of child exploitation. EDIT: I noticed in your last few posts that you say you are an American. As far as I am aware Japan does not allow multiple citizenship, you are either Japanese or you are American, you can't legally be both. I would probably be right if I say that you have never been to Japan in the last 10 years, because if it were so you wouldn't have thought so lightly of the issue and manipulated such a serious thing it to get your point. | I'm half Japanese, half white, and live in America. Rereading my post, I should have worded it differently, but it was very late and I wanted to get to the point across that (or at least thought) I knew what I was talking about. Again, not the best logic in the world. Please don't accuse me of manipulating information. I have a lot of relatives living in Japan, and I've never heard them say anything like that. I'll take your word for it considering you've actually been there and I haven't.
Plus, I'm planning on moving there so I try and find out as much as I can about the culture, laws, etc. I had heard of such things happening in Southeast Asia, so I guess it doesn't surprise me that it happens in Japan too. Sick.
In any case, I stand corrected.

Well im just telling you im not narrow minded. I should know myself more, maybe if you had met me before you would agree. Quit being so judgemental because you dont actually know me. My ass am i narrow minded. WHAEVER! i know its not true, only you ASSUME its true, but it isnt. period. For your info, im actually told im a nice person by those that have MET me. How can you tell over a computer? you cant, jerk. someone thats narrow minded is this (this doesnt match me at all) having or showing a prejudiced mind, as persons or opinions; biased. 2.not receptive to new ideas; having a closed mind. 3.extremely conservative and morally self-righteous.

As for the paedophilia incidents, they have become common knowledge in Japan after the 100+ cases by American tourists and forces, particularly one nasty incident in 1995 (Okinawa) where a 6th grader was abducted by some American soldiers, gang raped and then thrown off in a ditch. The immunity of US forces for crime against the Japanese prevented any action and this ended up with some hardliners blowing up a military vehicle in retaliation. It provoked action and public apology from US forces and some action which are light even by American standards.
Anyway the end result is, in most part of Japan where US soldiers or tourists are in plenty, parents have warned their children against getting too close to an American. A liberal woulf consider this as racism but after the attitude and behaviour of Americans, I can't really blame the parents for being cautious.
You should ask you relatives about these incidents and they would be able to update you on it. I have lived in Japan for quite sometime and was there when the incidents and the setback happened. There were a lot of protests and we had to avoid going out without security as there were a anti-American sentiments, we could be mistaken for Americans. | That is awful, and I can definitely see why they would take such precautions. Anyway, thanks for the info. |

Yep, some colleges will accept a black person with a lower GPA over a white person with a higher GPA to promote diversity.
i understand that colleges want diviersity, but where do you draw the line? By doing this your being unfair to white people AND minorities. If you are a hard worker and happen to be white, this is unfair to you obviously. You actually earned your way into college, and should be accepted over the person with the lower GPA. And if you belong to a minority race (& have the lower GPA), wouldn't you be mad that you may get judged unfairly? Like someone may be like, "Well he only got accepted because he's black.."
So the grand question is, Should Colleges focus more on diversity or strictly on their hard work? | GOT THAT RIGHT!!!!! Racism is a crime to me,, Why the hell do we see ourselves so different from one another???? I see everybody as the same.. So what if some of us live better then others,, or do things different,, or pray to a different god???? It all go's up the the same god.. Its just what and who you want to bileve in.. I am Not at all against anyone.. I have friends of all four colors, Red black white and yello{asian and fourn}.. You'll want to know something???? Sometimes i wonder why we r even fighting this stupid ass war,, Nothing is getting done, WHat,, So what if we win??? what does that prove to the others??? that we r better and stronger??? NO!!!!! It does not show a dam thing,, But sadness and hurt.. So many ppl have lost there lives over this,, IF WE COULD ONLY GET ALONG!!!! this world would b a totally better place to live.. we all look the same,, lol two eyes,, and nose,, a mouth,, and a language???? How does color matter???? ITS JUST A COLOR... why shpould that get in the way from liking someone.. Okay,, so some of us have a bad side,, And have done bad things,, And some of us r good.. and do good things,, Its just the way it is,, You can't have the good without the bad.. it will always b there.. So GET ALONG and learn to deal with it,, and if you can do that,, Then you got it all.. Gr8 friends,, and life will b gr8 for you and yours..
Peace out ppl.. Chevy boy
