Its my first time posting at Japan Forum so forgive me if I've misunderstood anything.
I wanted to ask about some of the posts I've seen in this forum which to me seem like blatant and quite frightening racism on the part of the Japanese authorities. Foreigners being blamed for crime etc.
Anyone from the UK will probably understand my shock at it. Racism in the UK is an arrestable offence with dire consequences. But it seems that in Japan theres government endorsed racism!!
Please tell me this isn't true because if it is I'm not sure I want to continue learning the language or the culture anymore.
