Did you go to a university or even graduated from high school??? I doubt it because this is simple statisics you cant interprete
First of all, according to your website you are wrong to say that crime rate of africans in Japan is 2.8 times than japanese.

Japanese crime rate = 0.291%
African crime rate = 0.289%
North America crime rate = 0.021%   
US crime rate=0.016%
Europe(minus Russia)= 0.026%

Barbados, Bahamas, seychelles etc all have about 90% population of african heritage and they have low crime rates compared to most  european countries and are ranked very high in the human development index, check it out.......

I updated your numbers, as you posted lies to mislead people. Yes, if you want to leave out "offenses" you can- these include visa overstaying, drug use, illegal weapon possession, speeding, prostitution, etc. But I would include these crimes among the other crimes.

But why are the Africans committing crime at such a higher rate than Westerners?After all the facts show their crime rates to be 1000% of Westerners.

It is cultural, you can deny it- but if it's not cultural then it's genetic. Pick your poison, since I know you don't like either choice. Clearly a lot Africans aren't criminals, which leads me to believe it's cultural. If it was genetic I would expect the number that are felons to be drastically higher.

Oh, and to correct you again. Westerners and Koreans are by far the most peaceful residents in Japan about 12 to 18 times lower than that of the Japanese. You want to rant about me including all crimes, yet you post absolute lies and manufacture numbers that aren't even on that web page.



Now about your examples.

Barbados-  Barbados puts out some numbers, but they are clearly skewed as the numbers they show for other countries are incorrect. Their most recent murder rate was 17/100k, vice 5/100k in the USA. The high murder rate would lead me to believe other crimes are also high.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...icide_rate
I did find this tidbit: The rate of total index offenses decreased from 5612.2 to 2364.94 a decrease of 57.86 percent from 1995-2000. A 60% decrease in 5 years is pretty substantial. Either they made radical reform, or changed how they document crime. Likely it's the latter.


Bahamas- Crime ridden slum. In 1998 the crime rate was nearly double the US. It's been known for high crime for all my life, yet people like you see sun and beaches and assume all is well.
http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/faculty/r...hamas.html

Seychelles. Fascinating numbers. At first I thought you found a winner. I would assume there must be a country somewhere that has a lot of Africans and isn't crime ridden. But, it seems there might be some manipulation of numbers in Seychelles.
Ranked #2 for rape:
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/c...per-capita
Ranked #17 for murder:
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/c...per-capita
Ranked #4 for assault:
http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_ass_percap-crime-assaults-per-capita

Yet total crime is much lower than the US. This indicates that people are often not reporting, which is common in areas that are trashed. Rapes and murders get reported, but theft is something people learn to accept.

You just stay in your fantasy bubble believing that nothing is wrong with African based cultures. I know you'll cite some places where Asians, whites or Hispanics haven't succeeded, but I've never said those people always succeed nor did I say their cultures are flawless. To try to justify a 100% failure rate by citing failures in random locations is pathetic, but I wouldn't expect any less.

I stand by my view that Roppongi (and the rest of Japan) is better off without African based culture on it's soil.

By the way, have you ever looked at which service members are committing the most crime in Japan?

Do you think the 1,000+ posts regarding how low crime and safe Japan is are also racist?

If not, what is the difference?


I know Americans are conditioned to think that anything negative said about African culture is racist. I don't expect any of you to change. But I'd love to hear someone try to justify their hypocritical double standard.

I'm going to comment back to Randy, then I'm done with this post and hope Adam finds it in his heart to delete the topic.

In both of your posts here you specifically state that Roppongi and Japan would be better off without African culture. The SPECIFIC calling out of ONE culture is why I called it racist, I would have said the same thing if it were Mexicans, Saudis or "whites" you were refering to. Personally I feel that saying somethnig negative about any culture or group is racist...

Racist - (from dictionary.com) - "a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others."

Whether you feel your race is above Africans or not is irrelevant, you still harbor the belief that they are "bad" BECAUSE they are African.

From Merriam Webster:

rac·ism

1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
2 :racialprejudice or discrimination

No where does it mention culture. Also, I didn't say any particular race was superior. In fact if you read my posts I specifically said Africans can thrive and do well IF they ditch their crappy African ways. At no time did I blame their race for their problems, yet other people tried to do that (including you).

But, if you want to say that culture and race are the same, then 90+% of the people on this board are racist. Prejudice (A preconceived preference or idea) doesn't have to be negative.

But, I bet you never call anyone racist for the countless positive posts about Japanese culture, do you? Because only African culture needs defending and personal attacks lodged to prop it up.

Yes, I specifically called out the most crime ridden group in Japan. It's the group that is making a portion of Japan recognized as dangerous.

First of all, dont reply to me if you are hiding your initial identity....I know you are ashamed of your narrow minded comments and ideology by hiding your JTucker accont and using a new one "Randy". So just stick to this one and let people follow the thread.

Removing RUSSIA FROM EUROPE??

I thought this discussion was about cultures.......over 80% of russians are europeans. Are you the type of guy in school who just accept and memorize notes from teachers and then produce them exactly as was given in an exams, even if the question is twisted and needs some reasoning??

If the website divides europen from russia, cant you do some simple reasoning (Basic), that is since russia is in europe and is made up of 80% europeans then russia should be added to europe for the sake of transparency in this discussion. If you have doubt whether russia is made up of blacks or arabs you can check it out or for geographical layout, you can check this site http://collegeatlantiqueoural.cafeb...an-country

I still stand by my point and I added russia to europe since you are afraid to let people see the truth:

Japanese crime rate = 0.291%

African crime rate = 0.289% (subsaharan and african arab countries)

THE WEST crime rate = 0.355% ( North america and Europe)

Why are you afraid of the ugly truth....

1) WHITE PEOPLE COMMIT MORE CRIMES IN JAPAN OF THESE 3 GROUPS

2) WHITE PEOPLE HAVE THE HIGHEST CRIME RATES OF THE 3 GROUPS

Going back to the blog.... I don't deny that Roppongi has a lot of crimes and mostly committed by Nigerians. My point is African culture has nothing to do with this. And that Africa being poor doesnt mean that its culture is bad. There are over 30 countries in Africa with different cultures and traditions. Some might be bad but not all. Same as for white culture......some good and some bad. But you always seem to pin point on crimes, so READ MORE BELOW and see how white/european cultures are also riddled by crimes and other social ills http://www.japanbases.com/forums/af...25399.aspx

But you have been thinking that white culture is perfect, that is your problem even though you know about the race that commits/committed most of the following crimes

-priests raping children -the Extermination of Jews and Gypsies and raping of hundreds of thousands of jew women - serial Killers - Spousal homicide - The population of pedophiles who happen to be white is around 80%

Murders (per capita) by country http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/c...per-capita

European/southern Europoid countries highlighted....

IN CASE YOU DONT KNOW

# 1 Colombia:
# 2 South Africa:
# 3 Jamaica:
# 4 Venezuela:
# 5 Russia:
# 6 Mexico:
# 7 Estonia:
# 8 Latvia:
# 9 Lithuania:

# 23 Bulgaria:
# 24 United States:
# 25 Armenia:
# 26 India:
# 27 Yemen:
# 28 Dominica:
# 29 Azerbaijan:
# 30 Finland:

Of the first 30 countries almost 50% is of european descent cultures whilst only 5 african countries.

ABOUT ETHNICITY OF SERVICE MEN COMMITTING CRIMES..... Why do you think so low????????????? I know you want to talk about the raping of a girl in Okinawa: Yes Yes yes.....I know it was committed by Black soldiers, but this shit happens in war. What can you say about the this crime committed by the perfect race servicemen: The Mahmudiyah killings and gang-rape of a 14-year-old girl by U.S. troops occurred on March 12, 2006, in a house to the southwest of Yusufiyah, a village to the west of the town of Al-Mahmudiyah, Iraq. Five United States Army soldiers of the 502nd Infantry Regiment were charged with the crimes: (i) Sgt. Paul E. Cortez, (ii) Spc. James P. Barker, (iii) Pfc. Jesse V. Spielman, (iv) Pfc. Brian L. Howard and (v) Pfc. Steven D. Green. Abeer Qasim Hamza was raped and murdered, after her family was murdered: her mother, Fakhriyah Taha Muhsin, 34; father, Qasim Hamza Raheem, 45; and six-year-old sister Hadeel Qasim Hamza

If you dont have any thing sensical dont reply to me

ABOUT ETHNICITY OF SERVICE MEN COMMITTING CRIMES.....


The West crime rate number you posted is false, so I'm not sure why you keep posting it.
Here are the rates:
Russia 0.271%
USA 0.016%
UK 0.021%
North America  0.021%
Africa 0.289%

Africa is highest. It's the standard and culture.

For those of you that think this guy is accurate, go to this page:
http://www.wa-pedia.com/gaijin/fore...apan.shtml

Press control F and search for .355%.  The number doesn't exist.
I think in all your genius you are trying to add the rates of various Western countries, which is mathematically incorrect. The need to be weight averaged.

Other quotes from the article:
"Considering continents, the highest crime and offence rate is however held by the Africans (0.954%). "
and
"Westerners and Koreans are by far the most peaceful residents in Japan, with an fantastically low crime rate, about 12 to 18 times lower than that of the Japanese."

Even if you can't do basic math, just basic reading tells you where the problems are. And, they are even kind enough to say where the problems aren't.

And about 80% of the violent service member crimes in Japan in the last few decades are by black service members. Yet another fact you will deny. They make up about 30% of the military, so in theory if cultures are the same they should make up 30% of the violent crime. So why the massive difference? It's not poverty, and according to you it's not culture.

Let me guess, you think it's genetic?


Oh. and Russia was likely left off Europe because it is HALF IN ASIA and listed separately.

This is all you should have said instead of wasting my time….. that the issue you have is not with African culture but with black people.

U.S Black service men share no culture with African people. In fact their culture is closer if not the same with western culture. So all this while you have been beating around the bush about CULTURE, but your problem is that you don’t want to see black people anywhere, not only Japan.

I know how people like you think and there is nothing on earth to convince you because you are just like that “genetics” racist. I just wanted to know what kind of person you are…….and I never debate or discuss with a racist. By the way I found a website for you to help you justify your course……

It's a bold assumption that black people in America share no culture with that of Africa. There was a time when black people were pressured to "act white" (as racists like you choose to say). But that day is long gone. In the 60's, 70's and 80's there began a push for more "identity" and getting in touch with "roots". This was the development of "cultural diversity" in America. During this same time crime shot up (approaching African crime rates) and the nuclear family unit was dissolved.

You may disagree about the US having various cultures, but even the military acknowledges cultural diversity in the ranks. Some culture have a higher tolerance and accpetance for crime, and that is a fact. Some cultures think that impregnating random women is acceptable.

Maybe you should read up on Jalen Rose's comments about a fellow basketball player calling him racial slurs because he came from a nuclear family unit and values education.

I'm glad you left, because I was tired of your lies and dishonesty.  It is about culture. You fix the cultural flaws and we won't have the conflicts (or people like you crying racism at every corner).

Japan's Nigerians pay price for prosperity
Facing apathy within and racism without, a disunited community struggles to thrive on society's periphery


By DREUX RICHARD
Special to The Japan Times

The Nigerian Union in Japan is the central civic organization for immigrants from Africa's most populous nation. It has foundered twice in 21 years and its current incarnation is less than a year old. Its mixed history is a reflection of the social and economic turmoil Japan's Nigerian community has endured over the past two decades.

Members have been factory laborers, globe-trotting entrepreneurs and nightlife industry pioneers. They've also been blamed for some of Tokyo's most publicized crime problems, notably a series of drink-spiking and bill-padding incidents that led the U.S. Embassy to issue a warning in 2009 against visiting Roppongi. With the exception of those incidents, their history has hardly been written about.

Union president Honorable Okeke Christian Kevin knows he has inherited an image problem that verges on unfixable, but which must be addressed if he wants to increase his constituents' social mobility. To that end, the Nigerian Union has held two fundraisers to benefit tsunami victims, hoping to portray Tokyo's Nigerians as socially conscious immigrants invested in the welfare of their adopted home. The second occurred during several months of reporting I dedicated to the Nigerian community.

Facing apathy within and racism without, a disunited community struggles to thrive on society's periphery 

More from the article

Okeke's speech at the second fundraiser...includes criticizing outdated "adult entertainment" laws that effectively criminalize all nightlife establishments
Rule 1 of moving to a new country: If you don't want to follow the laws, just break them and ask to have them changed. This will facilitate your integration into their society.

Or wait, maybe this facilitates resentment towards your group?
More from the article
"The tsunami was God's vengeance on the people of Japan for their racism," Saint says. Though he resents the Japanese his income depends on...
Ahh yes, the true face of immigrants that refuse to assimilate and ditch their old culture. You can find the same quotes from immigrants in numerous countries, and the patterns shows these are immigrants that want to do things "their way" vice accepting the new values of the place they moved to. Muslims in Sweden feel the same resentment- guess who commits the most crime and who the victims usually are? And the most brutal crimes are usually Muslims with Swede victims.
More from the article
Japan's obsolete nightlife laws, originally enacted during the American Occupation...."These laws are made to control our people (Nigerians)"

Fascinating that he feels laws are made to persecute him. I guess those American's in the 1950's were both racist and psychic and planned on targeting Nigerians 50 years down the road.


You can read up on Dreux Richard. His articles have the same tone every time- Japanese are racists and xenophobes, Nigerians are uniquely industrious and capable of achieving quick prosperity under challenging circumstances and the Japanese police are violent racists that beat people up for no reason. His articles are all severely biased, he avoids using concrete statements when discussing Nigerian crimes- yet any allegation about the Japanese is concrete.

I've found that cops don't seem to arrest you if you don't break laws. Also not running from them seems to help avoid pissing them off. I'm sure this isn't a national secret though.
