Welcome to freerepublic!

Here is a link to articles that I wrote on Yoshitomo Imura.

Here is an article on the 3D community developing a 3D printed hybrid revolver named in his honor.

I have had the privilege of teaching a number of Japanese to shoot, who were in Arizona doing military testing.

I believe that you will make an exceptional American citizen.

Welcome to America Tomoko! Sorry about the mess, were in the middle of some remodeling. The last contractor screwed us big time, but we’re working on it.

And Welcome to FreeRebublic! Need any help on the citizenship test, we got lots of people here who’d be happy to help you out.

Irrashaimase! Those of us lucky to have spent time in Japan understand that the cultural references are very different, and that part of the collective that seems socialist here is only the uchi there. That said, you get to shoot guns here. It evens out.

My advice is to avoid the fringe nutcases here on FR. Unfortunately that's about all of us. Not me, of course. Much. Welcome to FR.

“It is seen as primitive to most, but I like it.”

It’s primitive to most since it is based on honor ... something sorely lacking in today’s society. There isn’t any honor among thieves :-).

Welcome to Free Republic! Be sure to ignore all of the Cruz / Trump infighting unless you have some strong convictions surrounding one of those two candidates. That’ll subside after the primaries :-).

Nothing scares me! I mean, really...REAlllllyy now. I come from a country that has tentacle porn! Nothing is ever too weird! Okay, well maybe that.

[BushidoGrl]

Absolutely not. Why should the confederate flag be?? That's ridiculous. I used to be Shintoist. But I am no longer. Speaking of confederate flags. You may either find this as a sacrilege, weird, or even cool. View it as you wish. I made this in Photoshop. Which I will eventually have made into a real flag. Representing all 47 prefectures of Japan with 47 stars. Culture shock!!

[gaijin]

Ah that is what I thought it might refer to, hai Bushido!

Most were killed off during WW2 - they were somewhat at least chivalrous towards their enemies ...
