High stress society. Asians have a strong sense of honor and shame. No surprise.

It would seem a few laws or policies would need to be rewritten to cut down on whats basically fraud as an adjunct to murder. Also it seems the cops aren't really allowed to do their jobs by being constrained by cultural practices and limited resources.
Hiding shame which is a huge thing in their culture will be the toughest thing to overcome. Here in the US a kid gets a C in school they are praised for it, over there they're jumping out of windows. Throw money into that equation by way of insurance payoffs the temptation to either do someone in or do yourself is obviously way too high. |

I wouldn’t say that applies to “Asians” but it is definitely true of Japanese. Shame is so powerful here fatties usually won’t even leave their house. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Doesn't Japan have a suicide forest or something? I recall seeing a video of some creepy ass patch of woods where you can go to kill yourself.

Nothing new.
As far back as the early 1980's I remember hearing about Japan's high suicide rates. Very stressful place to live evidently. |

The USA has plenty of its own dirty secrets and plenty right in the open.
Why distract us with white knighting for jap suicide prevention? Abosolutely zero fucks given - MAGA before all else. |

Over the years, I've read several times that the Japanese police play it fast and loose when it comes to their violent crime stats.
Japan definitely has a low violent crime rate - it's just not quite as low as their police would have you believe. |

Rifles and pistols are pretty much a no-go, but there a ton of shotguns and air rifles (lol) registered here. I am joining a club that buys the heck out of shotguns here.

Frederica Wilson wouldn't have been elected in Japan. They do some things right.

Article is not entirely about suicide, it is also about suicide disguised as homicide.
Interestingly they had 27k suicides. That mirrors the US in gun deaths whether suicide or homicide, with a smaller population. So, even without gubs people will kill themeselves and others. I'll file this under no duh. |

If I worked long hours, every day, and went home to a shoe box in a high rise... I'd off myself too.
Or become a murderer for fun, since I'd have nothing to lose. (article topic) Or just move to the US and have a good life. |

Imagine your clearance rate if solving a case was a matter of you grabbing a random criminal off the street, phone book him into admitting to the Lufthansa Heist, and the judge buys it and the criminals attitude is "I was going to get pinched for something, thems the breaks." View Quote |

Ties into their 99% confession rate. That means if they decide you are the guilty one they torture you until you'll say you did anything to make it stop. And thanks to the saving face culture even if you were proven innocent later, you'll still never see the light of day because then they'd lose face. You do not want to end up there. View Quote |

Their culture is very interesting.
Will take the blame for life just not to say I screwed up. While we're were standing on the tracks in Nagoya, a Japanese coworker said that if someone kills themselve the family must pay any late fees or damage that occurs if they do it by train. Weird stuff. |

Not anymore. You're thinking of the WWII generation that has since been followed by the Americanized Japanese with their American instituted and ingrained pacifism. They don't have a military, they have a "Self Defense Force" as mandated in their US mandated constitution after the loss of WWII.

from the article it says insurance companies are forced to pay out for suicides. causing most murders to be staged as suicides.

A couple years ago, I remember a story about a japanese soldier accidently dropping a single round of ammunition from a hand gun or rifle out of a helicopter. The Army there spent untold masses of money mobiling infantry to find that bullet. Can someone find this article? I can't seem to find it anymore.
