These dudes are more viciously racist than some western fascists. Same old master race story too. If you aren’t born Japanese in Japan, you don’t belong according to them

Japanese courts have a conviction rate of 99.9% which is near identical to the 99.8% conviction rate seen in American federal courts . Today a federal defendant is 2900% more likely to be convicted than in the 1970s. State justice systems also generally match these numbers closely.
The conviction rate is what.
I believe the disparity, if I remember correctly, is actually in arrests - people who get arrested have a very high rate of conviction apparently.
They can hold people without charges for like an entire month instead of a day, and they spend that time basically torturing the prisoners with sleep deprivation and sometimes assault.
While nearly every aspect of the Japanese justice system is cruel and inhumane for defendants, the 99.9% conviction rate is only speaking to cases in which charges are pursued, and not all arrests.
Of the over 1 million arrests made in Japan for Penal Code violations, over 60% of such cases are suspended by the prosecution instead of being referred to the courts .
