It's difficult for me to admit, but admit I must. Japan is a nation full of law-breaking criminals and desperadoes. Oh sure, not all of them are robbing banks, committing grand larceny, breaking fingers and ankles, trading women in human trafficking, promoting gambling, drug use, sex, prostitution and all sorts of morally wicked deeds. But, well, the proof is in the pudding as they say: Most men in Japan (Japanese nationals and foreigners) are breaking the law with shocking regularity and that includes you if you live in Japan!
You're either with us or you're with the criminals. And, from where I sit, it looks like every male in Japan is a law breaker and should be apprehended and incarcerated until the end of time.
If you are a male residing in Japan, Japanese national or not (the law is, after all, fair and color blind) then you are a criminal lawbreaker as you support the yakuza most likely on a daily basis!
You should be ashamed of yourself! You despicable low-life scum! How do you sleep at night?
What I mean to say is that roughly 100% of the male population of Japan are eagerly supporting the criminal activities of yakuza gangsters merely by association and, as such, according to new laws on the books of Japan, must be arrested and made an example of in order to protect society. If I were the chief of police in your neighborhood, you'd be the first person whose butt I locked up and threw away the key!
This comes as a deep and profound shock to me as I was under the impression that most guys in Japan were regular Joes going to work and trying to earn a living. Little did I know that every male in Japan over 16 years of age is supporting Yakuza activities. Let me repeat that for you so the gravity of the situation really sinks in: Every single male in Japan over 16 years of age is supporting Yakuza activities and therefore needs to be arrested.
As always, the Tokyo Reporter has the story. I will add my comments in between paragraphs. Please refer to: How to Spot a Yakuza Front Company
So what these morons are saying is that if I take my dirty laundry to the corner dry cleaner, which I am unaware of is actually a front for a Yakuza company, I can get fined and in trouble and eventually jailed. What bullocks!
My question is: what's to stop some cop from abusing his power and use this law to take revenge on former business partners and people he doesn't like? What's to stop him from coming down on a legitimate dry cleaning business when it just so happens that his family owns the other dry cleaners in the same neighborhood?
But I digress...
As one friend told me, "If I put my money into any bank in Japan, I cannot be sure that the yakuza are not involved... After all, all big banks the world over are corrupt, dishonest businesses!"
The only straight line these people who wrote this law could write is if their brains were hooked up to an electroencephalogram (EEG) to measure their brain activity. That should be plenty to prove to anyone who has any trace of cranial activity that this article and this law is complete and total bullsh*t!
♫ Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you? ♫
I wrote about this just the other day. Please refer to Anti-Crime (Anti-Yakuza) Laws in Japan Completely Insane - Yakuza Gangsters (or those suspected of ties) can't play golf, go to Disneyland, eat at McDonald's or order Domino's Pizza either! Idiotic Laws!:
Now let me show you how it is that, if you are a male in Japan, then you are guilty of supporting the yakuza and should be arrested. Everyone knows that, in Japan, the yakuza have their hand in the entertainment business. Nowhere else is this hand more evident than in the "adult entertainment" business. That means hostess clubs, dating services, prostitution and pornography.
Yes, that's right: Pornography. Is there anyone who thinks that the yakuza do not control the pornography industry in Japan?
Now, what's that got to do with you, you ask? Don't lie to me. Everyone knows that 98% of all men admit to masturbating and the other 2% are liars. I know what you are doing! You might say that it is nobody's business what your right hand does while viewing pictures like the one above, but, let's face it; you are a normal red-blooded guy, right?
According to the Healthy Strokes web site, 100% of all men masturbate:
Some authorities say 100% and that there are no exceptions. According to a survey of more than 10,000 males by the web site HealthyStrokes.com in the second half of 2007, 99.15 percent reported masturbating currently. Limiting the scope to those over 18 (your question refers to "men"), 99 percent report masturbating currently. All of those males report having masturbated in the past.
Okay, so it's not 100%. It's 99% (and the other 1% are liars). So, like I said, everyone knows the Yakuza control the porno industry in Japan. And what's the problem with that? Someone has to do it. It's not like your local bank, postal service or hospital is going to diversify their businesses and get into the porn industry (although there's always more openings for nurses!)
So that means every time you view photos of sexy Japanese girls or Japanese porn, you are supporting a business run by the yakuza and, in turn, violating the new laws.
So, ultimately that means when you view porn (that is most likely created by yakuza run organizations) that includes sexy Japanese girls, you are a criminal...
Or, if you don't masturbate, then you are a liar. Which is it?
We definitely need more intelligent laws like this on the books, wouldn't you agree?
LOL! Where's that lol box?
ReplyDelete"commoners" nice translation, just about perfect. Helot would likely be more fitting though, imho.
Apparently, the world is full of helots. Who knew?
Hello Mike,
ReplyDeleteWow! You keep on hitting them out of the ballpark.
It seems that most modern countries have a tremendous number of laws. Why do you think this happens? My belief is that politicians want to appear to have the power to do something, even if their power is generally in reality, very little. Another reason, is for selective enforcement. Since everyone in a law-and-statute-book-ridden country are guilty of something, it makes it quite easy to prosecute, and persecute for that matter, somebody that one doesn't like.
Your friend's comment about banks and organized crime rings many alarm bells. The situation I've noticed in succeeding years is that it is becoming more and more difficult to tell legitimate organizations from criminal ones.
An act which used to be viewed as rather unseemly, gambling,which was heavily prosecuted BTW, is now in one form or another viewed as benign,and is in virtually every industrialized nation. It seems almost every devastated city in the US wishes to build a casino to “bring jobs”, and almost every state has a lottery of some sort. The irony of the situation, is that organized crime was better at running gambling, and the gambler was more likely to actually win.
Another is high interest, which used to be called usury. After the high inflation rates in the 1970-1980s, most of the rules and guidelines around interest disappeared. The prime rate in the US & Japan is less than 1% currently, yet there are many places that charge an interest rate above 100%. Yet organized crime was prosecuted when the prime rate was 3-6% and their interest rate was 20%.
The final act is sex. It seems rather bizarre, how hyper-sexualized most industrialized countries are in the media, yet individuals seem to be having less and less sex, and unsurprisingly, fewer and fewer offspring.
It also seems rather bizarre how, formally prosecuted, and currently stigmatized most performers and producers seem to be, yet the lion's share of profits go to major media corporations.
What was previously viewed as either illegal, immoral, or at least unseemly, have now become rather accepted. If a bank, media group, or state, currently acts as bad or worse, than what was called organized crime, what should we call them?
Mr. Nobody,
ReplyDeleteRight! You wrote, "If a bank, media group, or state, currently acts as bad or worse, than what was called organized crime, what should we call them?" How about "Our Elected Representatives?" Too long? Hmm? OK. "Government."
I'm hoping that, by writing this stuff some people will open their eyes to this madness... So far I haven't noticed any
converts.
Well a ton of the talent agencies are owned/funded/assisted by former yakuza so I guess anyone who bought a CD of ARASHI or AKB48 are criminals too.
ReplyDeleteAre you using cheesecake photos to attract audience? Because it's totally working! Also, it's forging the yakuza=yummy association in my mind.
ReplyDeleteOh, you marketing people!
Nihonjon,
ReplyDeleteThe company that you are referring to is named, "Burning." Met them before. Slightly scary chaps. Zanchito,
Yakuza = Yummy? Hmmm? Yes. I suppose so. No masturbation or girls like that in heaven, I suppose.
