Oh how the tables have turned...
Liberals like to bring up this "99% conviction rate" number as a way to frame Japan in a light of "See? The only reason their streets are clean and their society functions in an orderly manner is because it's secretly a totalitarian police state, wherein if you're so much as accused of misconduct you'll be locked in a pit, and they'll throw away the key!"
The fact is, that 99% conviction rate is more likely an indication that they're letting guilty people walk free, rather than locking up innocent people, because the only reason it's so high is that the state won't even bring the case to trial if they don't have an absolutely rock solid case.
So there must be some *other* reason it's a clean, safe, well functioning society. Hm...
It's the lack of rednecks and assault rifles u/#soyjack
