Great pics, handyman. Since I live here, I never think of taking pictures, unless there's a nice sunset or a monkey appears.

That has never really been true, but both victims and bystanders used to be more reluctant to speak up. These days molesting has become less common, because perpetrators are much more likely to be caught, and when they do their names are published in the press. The kind of guys who do that kind of thing are invariably cowardly little losers who choose victims based not on their looks but on whether or not they look like they might protest. I don't have much sympathy for the asshole who died of a heart attack.
As for the racism, Hakodate is a port town, and most of the Caucasians you're likely to see there are Russian sailors, who, surprisingly enough, are not famous for their good manners.
Unfortunately, in small, rural port towns like that, a few bad apples are enough to make the local populace hostile to anyone who doesn't look Japanese. Bigger port towns, like Yokohama and Kobe, are a completely different story. In the umpteen years I have lived in Japan, I have never been refused service anywhere, but maybe it helps being fluent in Japanese. Then again, maybe it's my saintly appearance and good looks.
D.W. clearly doesn't know what he's talking about, or maybe nothing he wrote was mean to be taken seriously. (His photos are all taken from the Internet.) "zion-loving, nazi-Worshipping"? What the fuck is that? "chink pics"? It sounds like
you're the racist.
Geisha are not and never have been prostitutes, moron. And though I suppose most of you figured it out yourself, the ice cream cones in the last photo are Photoshopped.
