Seriously, though. Cops, especially in more suburban areas aren't that highly respected. I wouldn't imagine messing with a cop in the US, but in all my experience with the police in Japan they are weak, skrawny old men is poor-fitting uniforms who are amazingly helpful in helping you find your way around the neighborhood, but are complete pussycats at any kind of physical confrontation, especially if it is even odds.

I watched three police officers, with guns and sticks, call the riot police on two drunk hooligans in Kobe because the three police officers were too afraid to arrest them on their own. Pretty pathetic.
