Absolutely not.
Where did you get that from?
I certainly didn't say it. I didn't imply it either.

Incorrect.
I have permenant residency and have no plans to leave. -
Right, I see. Me and every single person that I know must just be really really really lucky then.
(For the record I don't think Big Brother-like policing/government is a good idea).

The cars did look pretty strange didn't they!
Pretty strange but not pretty.

What a lovely story.
Who's to say it's not a load of made-up bullshit?
And regardless of whether it is true or not, I am sure very similar stories can be found in (*insert any county name*).
People also tend to tell their side of a story leaving out details that may be less than favorable to themselves.

Quote:There's plenty of stuff out there if you can be bothered searching for it though to suggest the police in this country completely overstate the amount of crime committed by NJ
My guess is that to a certain extent many countries are the same.
Completely overstating is different to "locking (them) up after someone has accused them of something". -
I hate any kind of raw meat. Cook it please!

Don't want to use wide brushes here, but I have heard some of the "gaijin accused of something he has nothing to do with" a few times. Is it always really the case? No smoke to indicate even the smallest of fires? Totally 100% innocent?
I really doubt it myself.

Oh. right.
I am neither a 'denialist' or 'apologist', though you are seemingly convinced I am.
I must be wrong, lucky etc etc and of course 'ridiculous' for suggesting that other places are not perfect, even though that was in no way the main point anyway. But, very well done!
Not worth continuing (and I'm sure you'll have fun with that comment too, so... fire away!)
