Tokyo police arrested a 65-year-old American man Wednesday on suspicion of property damage after he allegedly carved letters into the wooden pillar of a torii gate at the Meiji Shrine in Tokyo’s Shibuya Ward.
The suspect, identified as Steve Lee Hayes, whose address and occupation are unknown, has admitted to the allegations. He reportedly admitted that he “wrote his family members’ names.”
This is dumb teenager behavior, what’s this 60 year old’s excuse for such poor impulse control? If he wanted his name seen mission accomplished I guess
I bet as he was being taken away he shouted “oh I’m sorry, I thought this was 'merica” in typical Randy Marsh style
[full name], whose address and occupation are unknown […]
what? So if you knew his addres, you would have doxxed him without a problem?
Hopefully it would’ve just been “[full name], an [occupation] from [city, state]”, but I suppose we never know
The Japanese anonymous internet would dox him and harass him. Lots of online malice to be found on 2chan or whatever. No need for anyone here to do it.
Wrong war criminal shrine, but okay for the effort, I guess
Hayes allegedly used his fingernails to etch five letters into one of the shrine’s wooden torii gates.
Is it just me or does this sound incredibly painful or uncomfortable to attempt?
i didn’t know they still made dudes who supported the shogun
