Quick Passage: "JFBA noted that 80 per cent of suspects in Japan face trial while still in custody, undermining bail as a right. "
Also from a reliable friend, he stated that approximately 90% of all japanese court cases are plead guilty, with 90% of those that plead innocent found guilty.
Also many sexual deviancy has gotten so rampant to the point where many trains actually segregate their cars.
In other words, think twice before visiting Japan if your going "cause its all 1337". Just enjoy all their great products.
Just venting.
