You dodn't worrry about it.
My experiencec was with the really old guys in a very traditional country area.
Japanese people are fantastic, and like I said, discrimination is a little bit Taboo in Japan due to the history.
It's looked upon as being a very bad thing..
Those signs I believe are mainly in country fishing towns.. very old minded cultural Japanese..
What those signs REALLY mean is: "All undesirables Keep Out".
It's the translation that many foreigners get stcuk with..
three apartmenst where I live have Japanese people in.
My mates wife down the road, eightenn years is from Japan. My sons friends in the house around the corner are Japanese.
We all hate the local black guys, but it really is accepted here..
Some people hate Japanese, Americans, Aboriginies, Koreans, whatever..
Who cares...
I take people for who they are and not what they look like..
I love Japanese style.. If someone is noisy, rude, dirty, bad, get rid of em...
