I'm about as politically incorrect as Frank Castle and I take that as a compliment. Thank you.

Yea but Frank Castle has his whole family mowed down in front of him in broad daylight. He has a good reason to be a little grumpy and politically incorrect. Alls that happened to you is some guy spit on your arms. Allegedly.

Shit man, did they do that to you? That's almost as bad as coughing in your general direction. No wonder you hold a grudge against the Japanese in general.

Well, it is in their potential to do things like this to foreigners as history clearly shows.

If given the opportunity, some of the locals only spitting would attempt to do a lot worse if they knew they could get away with it.

Just because it hasn't happened to me personally, I shouldn't complain?

A lot of Japanese disrespect and deny the horrific war crimes they committed by continuing to visit Yasukuni shrine...that is so damn annoying beyond words.

Yeah, you are totally correct. I can sense that everyone around me is just waiting for the right time to pull out their samurai swords and cut my head off. And as the history clearly shows us no other country in the world has never committed anything similar than the Japanese. I mean it's barely 70 years ago; they will start again anytime now.

I will now promise to go to the Yasukuni shrine during the new year and pay my respects to the ones killed in the wars.

Yes I have seen many if not most of these as they were posted. I missed the one about the mayo on the bicycle seats. Fascinating. Anyway, do you think that there is a parallel but opposite universe where there is another guy who looks just like TJB but nothing but good things happen to him all the time? Random people hand him big wads of money. His wife is a supermodel who follows him around with a cooler full of craft beer and only knows how to say, “yes dear, right away dear”. etc. It could be true.

Why the fuck would you let Yasukuni bother you? It is somewhere on an endless list of controversial world historical artifacts that some people choose to be pissed off about. Why you? Did someone in your family get killed by a Japanese in World War 2? I didn’t think so. What you should be pissed off about is the mayo on your bike seat and the guy who spit on your arms. Might be the same guy.

Wow! Was your job to be an archivist?
Impressive!
TJB: you definitely could write a great book with all your adventures. Whether you SHOULD write it is another debate though (-:

Just remove rule of law from both countries. I suspect there'd be a lot more bayonetting of foreigners in the USA than Japan, never minding the fact Americans love shooting guns.

Well, even with the rule of law... I suspect the ratio of foreigners’ murders is higher in the U.S

The red states would go to war against the blue states. The blacks and Latinos would side with the blue. But the reds might win anyway because the are meaner and they have the guns and Jack Daniels

Is it some kind of re-play of the Civil War with the ending you would have wished?

If pressed to choose a side, I would root for the blues. Don't really care which though.

In the scenario you described, the Reds would be decimated quickly. For all the macho talk it’s mostly a bunch of old grumpy white men afraid of... pretty much anything.

You don't know much about the US, do you? The armed forces are all reds except for the blacks and latinos. All the hunters and survivalist types are reds. All the guys in the flyover states with thick necks who are on football teams are reds. The blues on the other hand are guys who are vegetarians, do yoga read books etc.

I’m just looking at election results demographics...
but I may be wrong , tbh it’s not my primary concern . And I think Americans are smart enough to avoid a second civil war (although recently I have occasional doubts)

For wider and less cliche demographic categories than rednecks vs hippies... (or angry old white males, for that matter)

A few facts, just to maintain the integrity of the discussion.

As the country has become more racially and ethnically diverse, so has the U.S. military.

Racial and ethnic minority groups made up 40% of Defense Department active-duty military in 2015, up from 25% in 1990. (In 2015, 44% of all Americans ages 18 to 44 were racial or ethnic minorities.)

In the same year, blacks made up 17% of the DOD active-duty military – somewhat higher than their share of the U.S. population ages 18 to 44 (13%). Blacks have consistently been represented in greater shares among enlisted personnel (19% in 2015) than among the commissioned officers (9%). The share of the active-duty force that is Hispanic has risen rapidly in recent decades. In 2015, 12% of all active-duty personnel were Hispanic, three times the share in 1980.

What a team! You covered the general population demographics and I reported the military.

Is that synchronicity?

See what I mean? Grumpy. It wasn't enough that every Japanese national in Japan was out to get you. You had to find some foreigners who were also out to get you. And a Thai at that. Thai people are always smiling. But you found one to scowl at you! What are the odds of that? A scowling Thai.

100% of thai people that i have spent more than 5 mins in conversation with, either in thailand or japan, have given me a smile and one or more of a hj, bj and sex.

I wonder if there is even one black, woman, under 44, democrat, who voted... Trump. Statistically she must be quite the outlier!

Omorosa, a black woman, typical of the type of person surrounding/banished from the Trump administration. She just happens to be black.

There are a lot of white women in that age group who said they voted for Hillary but once they got in the booth, they voted for Trump. Cowards. A lot of white women voted openly for Trump only because their husbands forced them. Cowards. Not nearly enough Latinos or blacks voted at all because they thought Hillary had it in the bag. Lazy. The rest are ignorant, redneck, racist chauvinists. Democracy in action.
