Looters should be shot on the spot along with any do gooder defending them.

I deal with the Japanese on an almost daily basis for my work. Whilst they have do have pride, I think the difference here is that they have respect. They have a huge amount of respect for others and that translates into a courteous culture where manners actually count. In my experience, sometimes that can go a little too far, but I'd rather have too much than not enough.

That respect is something a lot in our current society seem to have misplaced. Unfortunately.
