I agree with Russell, that arrest is highly questionable, and the cops were likely being egged on by the reporters they had in tow.

Yeah, more than being drunk in public I would say that would be the most plausible. After all, as we all know, if you have nothing to hide.............
FTR, I am not defending the cops, just saying thinking they need a warrant is one step nearer to a free night's accommodation, maybe more. And this fighting back with cops thing.........feckin' hell. Kind of glad he got busted, because he's a criminal and an emospastic retard.
BTW, WTF is Haabu? Is that just slang for cannabis or is it powdered snake bite?

We tried smoking oregano in grade 8. Kinda gross.

However, it is pretty shitty that the cops can search you for no reason and the drunk in public excuse is ridiculous considering the generally permissive attitude towards that in Japan.

Having been manhandled by a gang of cops here, I don't blame him for not wanting to be touched or grabbed....but poster boy for the J-police sabetsu he is not.

Legion....him getting busted, totally deserved it. No sympathy for that...he done fucked up. From what we saw in the video though, the dude just looked like he was drunk/walking. Would be pretty odd to leave out even more odd behavior, no?legion wrote:If the guy was Japanese would how would we react?

I've seen all kinds of ridiculous drunken behavior by locals in front of train stations and kobans in this country and the cops rarely do shit. And if they do get involved they just try to calm the person down and send him on his way. I've never seen them ask a FUK'N DRUNK Japanese guy for ID. I have seen the cops stop my FG friend who wasn't drunk or acting crazy to check his ID and search him for drugs for no reason other than he was a gaijin in Roppongi.

The cops stop gaijin and ask us for ID because we are gaijin and some of us are here illegally.

Very easy for the cop to say after the fact. Also, the first thing the cop said was he looked drunk and then added or maybe on drugs. It's possible the guy was acting very strangely before the video starts but from what I saw there was nothing to indicate he was anything other than really drunk. Besides, you don't know that he was stoned. He could have just been carrying and not actually smoked anything yet. It's pretty common to get drunk and score on the way home.
In this case the cops weren't asking for ID (which is bad enough). They were asking to search him. They do that regularly to gaijin in Roppongi to look for drugs. Even people who aren't all fucked up like that guy. I've never seen them do it to a Japanese guy in Roppongi though. Very interesting considering how many locals I know who do drugs.

I used to live in Shinjuku and I've seen Japanese guys' cars being searched many times. Just saw it the other day too out here in the sticks.
