Why is there no looting in Japan?

An amazing thing to ponder. Thankfully the world is taking notice.

The Japanese for all their fantastic characteristics are some of the most racist people on Earth. If you are not Japanese, you are a “Gaijin”. Never, ever will you be a citizen, have the right to vote or live their as an equal. So, while they are an admirable race, they have their downside like conquering Asia every 100 years or so...

I said this yesterday about the looting..The people of Japan seem to be civilized some of these here are not they are savages..Here you go this is some of the looters..

Is that what we really want?

Ask the Shariah crowd.

They're the ones who are most likely to do it.

Our country has SO MANY cultures,

This is by design. Liberals import third worlders by the 100s of thousands in order to destroy the cultural and religious identity of America which helps further their agenda. Third world importation has skyrocketed under Obama. I am noticing, as I have also read on other blogs, that they are being sent to populate the southwest and other traditionally red/purple states to give them a more 'diverse' look.

"Because they were not brought to Japan in slave ships!"

Waahh! Your ethnicy/liberalism (or both) is showing.

"Why do some cultures react to disaster by reverting to everyone for himself, but others – especially the Japanese – display altruism even in adversity?"

It's not what a lot of people here are hinting at IMO, concerning race. It has to do with culture. In the Japanese culture, the society is more important than the individual. In their society honesty, respect, duty, personal responsibility mean something. It used to mean something in our society, for both blacks and whites.

You mean Blackwater won’t be needed to restore order?

Every time I see one of those, “Our diversity is our strength.” posters at work. I always feel tempted to ask why Japan, which is 98% Native Japanese, making it one of the least diverse nations on earth, is also one of the worlds top economic and technological powers. While the Balkan nations, which are some of the most diverse nations on earth, with literally dozens of different ethnic groups, are constantly torn by war and internal violence and would be little more than third world countries without economic intervention from the European Union.

That was my first thought.

Thanks.

“I could tell you... but then I would be accused of being racist”

Let me say it. No cultural diversity.

[lakeman]

You don’t know the Japanese then LOL

I noted the other day, a guy about my age (VN Vet), walking out his door and hauling off debris. Sweeping. Cleaning up. The dust from this 9.0 earthquake monster had barely settled, yet he was cleaning up his property.
No FEMA. No Red Cross/Sally. Just his own energy and gumption. Sure impressed me...

Compare that to after Katrina, when even the COPS were caught on video looting Wal-Mart:

(and this was on Countdown with Keith Olberdork, even!)

[bandleader]

Japan has a very civilized culture.They are more reluctant than others to either disgrace themselves or(for that matter)their families.As The United States Marines found out,they are(also) VERY reluctant to surrender!!

[Mich Patriot]

I think it might have been sarcasm.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

I would also say that this is an indictment against those who believe that social conservatism is not that important and not to be talked about. The social conservatism is the glue that holds all the rest together. A Republic cannot survive without the society being a moral society. It’s why the fabric of our society is tearing IMO.

“diversity = good”

is simply an arbitrary assertion based on NOTHING.

In fact, all empirical evidence points the opposite way.

[factmart]

Hey, that’s what I heard a looter say.

“Because they were not brought in slave ships!”
