this sounds funny

News reports said the 17-year-old suspect hacked off his mother's head as she slept, then went to an Internet cafe to watch music videos — with the head — before turning himself into police in the morning.

There are weird and frightening people everywhere. The reason any crimes are brought up as so shocking with Japan is that Japan has a low crime rate to begin with. You`re not going to hear about every crime in a country with a higher crime rate - in fact, the higher the crime rate the less likely it is they will even report the crime on a local level. In Japan though, even mundane murders are often reported nationally.

That recent stand-off thing was pretty close to me. It`s no mystery where the guy got the gun - he was (former?) yakuza.

Guns are already illegal - why shouldn`t they work harder to enforce that?
