    What evidence is there that they are “dangerous”?
    Where are the statistics comparing age-specific crime rates between Japanese nationals and foreign residents?

    People are being pushed into jobs that Japanese citizens refuse to do, with no effort whatsoever to improve wages or working conditions—
    and then, after placing them there, the government turns around and says they are a risk and must be tightened and controlled?

    How could anyone say something so profoundly disrespectful?
    As a citizen of this country, I am ashamed.
