Kyushu town doesn't want FGs

Today's JT has a letter to the editor on Setaka town in Fukuoka Prefecture that wants a University and in a probably sensible move, voted (municipal assembly) to try to preclude FGs from attendance. Looks like the mothers and daughters will be safe! Score one for Blinky!

".....A group of residents submitted a deposition opposing a campus that did not reject foreign students. They were worried about the crime such students would bring. That's right -- the residents wanted a university as long as there were no foreign students. The town assembly voted to accept the proposal without debate...." Letter here.....

When I ask Nihonjin about this the answer I get is that by foreigners they mean mainly Chinese, and other Asian peoples that Japanese think they are better than. It does not mean white people.

I'd laugh if they got what they wanted and crimes went up anyway - poetic justice.
