The JR workers handled that pretty well. In the U.S., they’d be plugging their tasers into the third rail and lighting that dude up like a christmas tree.

yeah its the same in Australia now(that or 9mm) at least this guy will only be charged for wasting resources in dangering self/public(rocks is more then enough reason in any situation).

Don’t get why they need 10-15 people to move him out of the station, police sure know how to waste resources.

P.S He must be Korean.

Richard: loved your comment!

Joe: Got something to back that up, sport? Parting shots are the mark of the weak.

He read the Fortune article about the iPhone being more popular in Japan than it really is. Reasonable response, really.
