Police in the Tokyo suburb of Chiba detained Reid Jahnai Daysun, 24, and Neal Jabahri Duan, 27, after one of the men allegedly jumped the fence to enter the enclosure while the other filmed.

Japanese Police don’t mess around like America’s do...
And, as I understand it, neither does the Japanese judicial system nor its penal system.

Plus…
A friend of mine, a black guy, was hired to teach English to Japanese students (in a Japanese high school). My friend was shocked by the open racism he experienced from the students.
So I’m guessing those two black guys might not have an easy time while in custody.
Side question: Does Al Sharpton speak Japanese? If so, get him on a plane to Tokyo immediately!

I should have read the article, they were internet pricks and their youtube antics.........
What's sad is that these assholes actually make money from these videos.....

As an American, I am embarrassed.
If anyone from Japan is reading this, please understand that this behavior is not approved by most Americans either.
These monkeys do not represent us at all.
Please lock their asses up for as long as your laws allow. Frankly, you would be doing us a great favor to keep them.

Reid Jahnai Daysun and Neal Jabahri Duan
Mayflower descendants, I see.
Duan is a Chinese surname, as is Daysun.
Jahnai and Jabahri are Arabic
