"I was just accused by a woman," he said. "Then I was stripped of my freedom and my human rights were infringed. I want to take the lead so that other people won't suffer similar damage."

In Japan, that wonderful country with zero gun deaths, there is no such thing as due process of law. TIPS will make it that way here, too.

This is not a joke. I was on these trains while working at a Navy base. At the time, I was fortunate to have a co-worker with me who spoke Japanese but it didnt stop a man from using my breasts as a shelf for his paperback, or another from pressing himself against me from behind. Hiding behind my coworker in a corner was the only defense I had.

In Japan, if a man is "tipsy", the alcohol is blamed for his condition and he is "not responsible". This allows them to get away with anything they think they can. Every time I got off the trains, I felt like I needed a shower.

This is absolutely sick - people who are ruining people's WHOLE LIVES getting away with their crimes, either because of a lack of evidence or because od using "I was tipsy" as a ridiculous excuse.

Here's some reasons why it is so bad:
IT CAUSES (in virtually all, if not ALL cases)

Immense fright

Immense suffering

A horrible feeling of helplessness

A violation

Something being forced upon you that you don't want to happen

AFTER THE SEXUAL ASSAULT:

The above feelings remain

Flashbacks (extremely disturbing visual images of the event playing over in your mind, often so real that it feels as if the sexual assault is happening again)

Nightmares

Difficulty maintaining a relationship

Fear of even consensual sexual activity

Consensual sexual activity causing fear and flashbacks

Suicidal thoughts (and in too many cases, suicidal actions) because the pain and suffering is too large to bear, even for a person frightened of death, even for a person who considers suicide to be wrong

MONTHS AFTER THE SEXUAL ASSAULT, EVEN YEARS AFTER:
All of the above

As evidenced by the woman who has expressed her feeling of a need to take a shower every time she gets off the train.

AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ANY OF THIS, ask any organisation that helps, or tries to help, victims of sexual assault, such as http://www.safehaven-uk.org
