Japan government proposing new constitution

http://www.japantoday.com/e/?content=news&cat=2&id=329230

Creepy stuff.  Sounds like they want a return to a "kinder, gentler" version of the prewar era...

you think the war changed them?

the black dragons didnt go anywhere......

japan is the germany of asia, they love to believe they are superior to their regional peers by nature, they always have and deep down they always will

gaijin go home! btw they hate korea and china more than anyone

The "Liberal Democratic Party" suggested these changes, lol. It sounds like they are ramping it up to make Battle Royale a reality (which would be likely to be banned under such laws, zomg dramatic irony).

lol japan

>>"It should be permissible under the law to restrict or ban publication or sale of books that have a detrimental effect on young people's upbringing"

Wow. They really want to cock things up.

they have seen where accellerated godless culture has got them, they are afraid and want to control it before it gets too far out of hand, though it seems a bit late

i'm sure they have very rational arguments and proponents for this movement

Is this constitutional change something that's really being planned seriously?  Or is the LDP mugging for the cameras, trying to get news coverage for itself during a slow news week?

In America, the lunatic fringe of the Republican party proposes a new constitutional amendment every few years based on whatever hot-button issue is in the headlines at the time.  The amendments are always quietly abandoned in committee when the public's attention is diverted to something else.

So, is this constitutional change "for real," or are the politicians just play-acting?

the second one.

Hurr, their politicians pull this shit every 2 months, nothing ever changes.  An advanced culture isn't going to revert to some moral-induced idiocy just because some old people start to whine.

The Liberal Democrats in Japan are anything but Liberal or Democrats. They're a bunch of Conservative dickheads who've been in power since the US let Japan go in the fifties.

>>11
Those fucking assholes. The US should still be in power, fucking cunts.

>>12
I almost am inclined to agree. Though who knows, the US doesn't seem to remember how to rebuild nations anymore.
