...Ichikawa allegedly first purchased cannabis for personal use from foreigners in the Minami entertainment district of Osaka about five years ago, and began selling the illegal substance at a profit about three years ago, the police said.
I was foolish enough to get my hopes up that they would actually just say that this Japanese kid was selling dope and got busted along with his 2 other Japanese buddies who were also selling to Japanese buyers. Why the hell is it so necessary for them to toss in some stupid remark at the end about the first time he smoked weed he bought it from a gaijin? That's probably just bullshit anyway, all the guys I know in Tokyo who sell decent dope are Japanese! After 5 years it still pisses me off that Japanese people try to portray themselves as victims of a gaijin invasion even when they're clearly the ones causing so many of the problems...
