caucaasians is simple.
the bomb. they stick out more. the lack of japanese
and caucasians ranks highes in crime related to drugs and rape.
basically my theory is this :
it is fact that out of cases where the accuses will go to jail, almost 100% of the accused get into jail. in japan there is no innocent until proven guilty. it is guilty until proven inncoent,
Once you get in jail, there is much beating, so you might as well die.
Now aemricans, come along, use to the messed up law system over there and think their all cool. then they find out the japanese are tough and crime.
Actually, this week, there was a crack down on fake visas, 10, 000+ foreingers have been banished from japan.
a staggering 50% were chinese. 20% american, and 30% other. |

@ Tatsuka Ito
hmm...interesting...
yes, the crime rate of drugs and rape is higher with caucasians. but they're like, all male. at least the rapes are. so are they more against males? 
and the bomb, you mean the bomb that america dropped on 'em? 'cause who could blame 'em for discriminating for that reason?
and when you say "they stick out more" what does that mean? there's less japanese...so, it makes white people stand out more? sorry, could you explain it to me? 
yeah, the crime punishment system isn't very...strict. or at least it doesn't seem like it...
there's like, a kajillion sex offenders running around (which is totally freaky) but i think it's 'cause the prisons are full of the "more dangerous" prisoners. i'm not sure though...
and about the fake visas thing, why are there so many people trying to get in? and why are they kicking them out? (so many questions! like i told you, question mark abuser XD ) |

yes more against males
by stikc out more...
well let me start from the begininng. the japanese are a very homogenous society, and oddly enough, are more willing to accept people who look like them.
So you get the point.
Most of asia is like this, so dont think its a japanese only thing.
whya re so many trying to get in? why, its japan of course! see, the chinese hwo want immigrate have 2 choices Japan or North america (well these are the obvious ones) the number 1 choice use dto be north america, but immigration to japan is get higher. because simply, japan is closer, the look like them a bit more and frankly, "everybodys comin to the usa" is an old concept. |

haha, oh i see 
ok, that's what i thought you meant at first, but i wasn't sure.
i have pale skin with lots of freckles, big blue-ish (they change) eyes, and dark auburn hair.
similar? no, not much  but i'm a girl, that's a plus, right? right??
but, i'm reading this true story about a little girl growing up in china, and it said that europeans were considered "better" than the chinese by the chinese this was like...i dunno, the 1940's i think, but i thought it sounded funny. how times have changed!
it was like, owning a precious jewel for a man to have a european wife apparently
i felt that might kinda fit into the conversation, so yeah. 
haha, yeah, i mean, being japan is reason enough to want to go there, right?
haha, but i thought it was really expensive to live there. or is that only tokyo? |

| my cousin lives and studies japanese in Sendai since this summer. and he's got it pretty good (except that he wasn't allowed to get internet until he was 20...). as far as i know he seems pretty popular and has made many friends (but that could have something to do with the fact that he's crazily awesome at playing the electrical guitar ). i'm just sooo jealous! and he's seen Morning Musume live!!! i wish i was there too.... |

Hi, everyone! There are some ideas discussed in this thread that are interesting, yes? but may not have support from history, or from tradition in Japan. Here are some thoughts which have support of history and science:
(1) Japanese people are not all descended from ainu, actually most Japanese are not related to them at all. Ainu are related to Tibet people and maybe some others. They do not like to interact with Japanese people because we are usually prejudice about them and abusive to them, this is shameful! but truth, see (4) below.
(1.5) Many Japanese are related to Koreans, because Japanese leaders brought many Koreans to live in Japan after so many attacks of Korean during historical periods. My home town Hagi is the place many of Korean pottery makers came to live after Korean invastion by Hideyoshi Toyotomi, perhaps I am actually related to some Korean person, I cannot know unless I look in the prefecture records for 1600s.
(2) Japanese spoken language developed in Japan, not anywhere else, but most languages have some relationship to other languages and spoken Japanese has some relationship to Korean and Chinese.
(3) Japanese written characters called kanji was copied from Chinese written language, this is done before Heian generation of 900s and 1000s. Japanese phonetic language called kana was developed during Heian period for use by women, men did not believe that we could read and understand so complicated thing as Chinese characters! but this is not first time or last time men underestimate us.
(3.5) Japanese written language uses about 2500 kanji characters in daily life. Chinese written language uses about 9000 in daily life, and educated people know about 25,000, I know this because my best special friend Jessica is Chinese American and her father told me, he is very well educated from Taiwan.
(4) Japanese people in Japan are not racist, they are chauvinist. Okay, I cannot say "they" because maybe I cannot exclude myself, maybe I try to behave some different way but I am Japanese after all. Chauvinist means we are prejudice about "superiority of their own kind" and especially about their nation. Well of course! our culture is so much tribal focus, not ideal focus like USA or China! we are very much chauvinist because our background is living on island with many tribes, yes? |

@ Tatsuka Ito
Rape is actually more common in third world countries.
e.g - Pakistan, where a woman can be executed as a result of reporting the incident.
Third world countries are by and large non-caucasian.
No race or country is to blame for the crimes of individuals.
@ KerushiiAi
In my opinion, any country which still has the death sentence is way too strict!!! |
