They have low "reported" crime rates. Now bear in mind CP production was legal in Japan until early 2000s, and CP ownership was legal until 2010 or so. How many people have they arrested for CP ownership since then. Probably not many. Amazon Japan just pulled the CP off their store front. And I don't talk here about the anime stuff.

Nanking? Korea? Philippines? Etc.

And yet the TMP is still as useless or maybe more useless considering their budget and manpower when compared to Brazil.

@opalyasu7159 What about Lindsay Hawker, murdered by a Japanese man?

@ronel7836 The country is not that safe for women and perhaps young girls. There are safer countries in Europe for such people.

@elderman64 There you go. But people make Japanese into angels or something. The weebery online is really too much. You live in Japan. Please tell me how come CP was legal for so long in Japan. And why they still have 10 year old junior idol photobooks and DVDs sold on Amazon Japan and Rakuten? Do ordinary people not care that child exploitation occurs so much?

@SnakeMC96 You do know that right now women and children are dying all over the place, especially in wars and your blood boils over this case which happened many years ago?

@kokea4349 Not accusing you. But I know that lives for many people have different values. People get sad when its someone they know that passes away but some stranger somewhere - that's not as bad. And people from own country or thought to be similar or people who are liked, if they undergo tragedy, they are also empathised with more than some people who one doesn't know or maybe has prejudice against. Again, not accusing you.

@kokea4349 Or one values some lives over others because one is into anime/games/manga and the Akiba scene

@volterkeg People concern themselves over a murder because it was in Japan but 20 years ago. This sort of thing happens all the time so people need to stop the weebery.

@volterkeg Nobody got berated by the way. I made an observation. You're berating me mate. Did you read what I wrote or did you skim it? Now go away and find some friends to pester.

Maybe they are just useless.

I suppose had the guy flushed and washed the toilet bowl Muta would have not put that most evil clickbait thumbnail. It would only be evil but not most evil. And when is murder not evil? Is it less evil if someone kills an adult or an elder? All murder is equally evil.

@d.optional3381 Did you? All murder is equally evil because murder is defined as taking innocent life. Note that killing is not always murder, for example a legitimate target killed in war, such as soldiers killing each other in combat is not murder, nor is killing in self defense not is capital punishment. All people regardless of age who are killed if they are innocent are by definition murdered. All murder is equally evil. What don't you agree with?

@d.optional3381 The act is evil regardless. The culpability of the child, if the child could not tell evil from good are a different issue. You see you need to consider that as well. The act of killing the parents in your example is evil unless it was in self defense i.e. the parents were not innocent. I would exclude accidental killing here such as maybe a child got angry and pushed them and they fell and broke their necks or the child let the gas run and a fire started by accident. But if the child is not capable of telling wrong from right the child is not culpable and is then judged either insane or incapable of knowing good vs bad. But the act itself is still evil. Two innocent people lost their lives because of an action of another person. So one can discern as the act being evil but the perpetrator in that case may not be evil. I agree the topic is complex. Hence there is no need for degrees of evil. An act is either evil or not. Taking innocent lives is an evil thing to do although the person at the time may not have realised it was an evil thing or that death would have occurred and had they known or been capable of knowing maybe they'd have acted differently. So we have an act = killing of an innocent = evil. And the perpetrator, did he do it intentionally and did he know it was wrong to do it? Could he have predicted that his actions would have led to death?

@Livi_Noelle They are mid? What do you mean they are mid? With the budget and manpower, they are not mid. They are the bottom of the barrel. Totally useless. American FBI is sometimes good but that's because of money and manpower. Japan is No 3 or 4 richest country in the world. They are loaded with cash. So cash was not a problem. Lack of evidence was not a problem. So they're either incompetent or they let the killer go on purpose. Both make them look bad.

@mrbigforeheadlex I don't follow your incredulity. Usefulness is judged in terms of cost. You can't fault poor performance when you're spending peanuts. But Japan spends a ton load. It's the 4th richest country in the world. If you want a rational comparison give Brazil a Japanese budget and then see or correct for that using scientific and statistical means.

Why do you say ONLY place with very little crime? Can you trust Japanese police stats. They're dubious. Also Japan leads many countries in s-e-x crimes eg groping, theft of underwear and peeping. Women face a lot of se-xual harassment at work. Japan under reports these because there is a stigma to reporting while police charge only those crimes they can be sure of winning given the high conviction rate. But weebs will say it's a low crime country, always say 'it's thought or alleged to be a low crime country', whatever that means. They even have seperate women only trains to prevent groping.

@williammclean6594 It's probably a bias. Crime shows cherry pick cases which are easy to dramatise and sell to TV networks.

@kokea4349 I didn't know that. But Amazon Japan and other sites still sell "junior idol" material.

@JoJo-gt7ty Dude, Japan banned real CSAM production in the early 2000s or late 90s and ownership of CSAM recently. The loli stuff is sick and it can foster incorrect behaviour in people who have such tendencies. You can't hide violent crimes like murder and so on but rape can be underreported because women aren't always beaten up terrible when they are abused. And there is a stigma to reporting in Japan. It's well known. And their police keep stats in a funny way. They also charge people mostly in cases they are assured of success in court, given the high rate of convictions. There is a lot of sexism in Japan. It would be better for Japanese women to face less of that.
