住めば都。This is my country. I’m a permanent resident. I like Japan. I’d like it to be a good place for everyone to live–Japanese and non-Japanese.
I don’t recall calling America paradise on earth. I don’t think the Japanese are weak at all. If you want to live in the United States and point out what’s wrong with the country–then I think you should.
If you’re a citizen, you have every right to do that! Good luck!

You should go back to the USA! This is not your business!~
Go worry about how bad your own terrible country is before you come here and act all high and mighty- looking down on the weak Japanese.

I’m amazed at the guts some of these criminals have, when they “get away with” their criminal acts.

Glad to hear he was convicted. Sleeze ball.

I hope this guy gets what should be coming to him and the victims are able to recover and move on with their lives. What’s the usual penalty for a crime like this? What would happen to him if the Yakuza took care of him for impersonating one of their own? Monetary settlement? Please follow up with his sentencing.
