I agree that it definitely shouldn't affect the US-Japanese alliance. I mean we wouldn't have liked it either... It does make me ashamed to be American a little bit. I mean, look, to them, rape is THIS big of a deal, and to use, we are desensitized from it, so we don't accept it, but they think we don't care at all when it's not our fault. My exchange student application is over there in Japan right now, being looked at and they better not let something like this ruin my trip.... it's just one stupid idiot that ruins it for everyone and that sucks.
