An article I came across on about the man a while back that got caught printing guns on a 3D printer (in Japan). The 27 year old college student. Same age as me. So i felt compelled to join and voice my opinion on this.
Someone on there said that we're all socialists by majority. That would be like me assuming all Americans are all brain-dead idiots. When I know that's not true. Just a generalization. All silly talk aside, That is not true. I am not a socialist, anyway, I do know that.
I am a young woman of liberty, and even if I am not living in Japan any longer, I support them in anything that they do if it involves less government overreach, and more for them. Both our countries have grown apart due to President Obama's lawlessness and now Japan tops China as the US's top debt holder. This is where the strained relationship with very little communication from the White House all started with the Obama Administration. I know all of you can agree with me on that. Obama really strained the allied relationship between us all.
I am both happy, and concerned that Japan is no longer pacifist. It's great they are able to defend their country, and themselves but there's no 2nd Amendment for Japanese. Many love guns and we commend Americans for keeping that right for such a long time. (full autos are still heavily restricted among other things, and that should not be) But ammunition is expensive on full autos and we can agree on that.
When I got my first pistol and then my first rifle living here, I was smiling from ear-to-ear. I can't do that back home.
What Americans do, Japan is highly influential of. Both cultures watch each other's actions, especially Japanese. Both political and non-political. The younger Americans who somehow, find us interesting, lol. I wish they could have the freedoms over there, like I do here. Especially the women. Many women are capable if not, more so then the men in Japan at many male-dominated positions.
I hope to get to know all of you very well,
Thank you, and God Bless!

We have many friends in Japan. We have had over 50 Japanese university girls in our home while they were attending English language and business courses at our local university. Also, both my wife and I have taught summer English language classes to Japanese high school girls. I am retired and my wife will shortly retire from teaching elementary school. We saw your Konnichiwa article over Free Republic and agree with your thoughts. If you would like to send a reply, contact via “Private Reply.”
Yoroshiku! (I’d spell it out in Kanji, but the text was coming out garbled when previewed.)
