KC, whenyou are 18600% more likely to get murdered by gun in the US, maybe people don't have time to slink off and commit suicide.

Seriously, though, unless you know Japan, you won't realize that their culture is VERY different from American culture. Honor and Cho is much more important to them than you can imagine. The pressure to do well in Japan, to fit in, and to be part of their society is huge... some people don't make it, and take their own lives. It is VERY sad, and their culture doesn't allow for much discussion of this subject. Things are changing, but it is a very slow process.

I love Japan, I would love to live there... it is a beautiful country.
