Hi Blog. \u00a0We have some positive movements regarding the treatment of hate speech in Japan, particularly regarding that “Kill all Koreans” hate demo that took place last February<\/a> (god bless the ensuing gaiatsu<\/em> of international attention for making the GOJ finally take some action to deal with this deservedly embarrassing incident). \u00a0First, the Asahi reports that one of the participants in the Zaitokukai hate demo named Akai Hiroshi was arrested by the police, for violent bodily contact with a person protesting Zaitokukai activities.<\/p>\n

\nMan held during anti-Korean rally
\nKYODO MAY 22, 2013<\/strong>
\nhttp:\/\/www.japantimes.co.jp\/news\/2013\/05\/22\/national\/man-held-during-anti-korean-rally<\/a><\/p>\n

Police have arrested a 47-year-old man who took part in a regularly held anti-Korean demonstration in Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo, for allegedly assaulting another man protesting the rally.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The man arrested Monday identified himself as Hiroshi Akai, an unemployed former Self-Defense Force member from Kumagaya, Saitama Prefecture. Akai said he had \u201caccidentally bumped into\u201d the other man, according to the Metropolitan Police Department.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Police allege Akai hurled himself at the 51-year-old company employee Sunday evening after the protest in Shinjuku. He was held by riot police who were guarding the demonstration.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Rightwing groups, including one claiming to be \u201ccitizens who do not condone privileges given to Koreans in Japan,\u201d have been staging demonstrations several times a month in Shinjuku and nearby Shin-Okubo, home to a large ethnic Korean population.<\/em><\/strong>
\n==============================<\/p>\n

Okay, good start, and glad that there are protests regarding the hateful, xenophobic protesters (usually their activities get ignored even if they involve violence against counter-demonstrators<\/a>). \u00a0Except for the fact that this sort of hate speech has by now reached the highest and lowest levels of society, as in anti-Korean stickers being sold in Diet buildings, and anti-Korean graffiti being scrawled on public transportation:<\/p>\n

We have some positive movements regarding the treatment of hate speech in Japan, particularly regarding that “Kill all Koreans” hate demo that took place last February (god bless the ensuing gaiatsu of international attention for making the GOJ finally take some action to deal with this deservedly embarrassing incident). First, the Asahi reports that one of the participants in the Zaitokukai hate demo named Akai Hiroshi was arrested by the police, for violent bodily contact with a person protesting Zaitokukai activities.<\/p>\n

It’s a good start, and I’m glad that there are protests regarding the hateful, xenophobic protesters (usually their activities get ignored even if they involve violence against counter-demonstrators).. Except for the fact that this sort of hate speech has by now reached the highest and lowest levels of society, as in anti-Korean stickers being sold in Diet buildings, and anti-Korean graffiti being scrawled on public transportation, according to J-Cast. The good news, however, is that we’re hearing about these events at all (discrimination often goes ignored in the J-media if its against NJ). <\/p>\n
