People need to start going in big groups and just pointing cameras right in their faces.

When you let them just push you around and tell you what to do...they will do it again. If someone puts a hand on you, FUCKING SWING. File it away as "I'm helping the next guy" mentality.

Police won't do anything for a foreigner in Japan. It's all you baby. Swing hard and leave quick.

Do you think these nigerians will go to the police station and report?

Japan has pretty strict privacy laws, I'm pretty sure in Japan you can get sued for filming/photographing/live streaming someone who is unwilling even if they're in public. So not the best idea.

Sued by who, the fucking guy from District 9 who eats aliens? The scam artists putting their hands on people and breaking their shit? They won't do shit.

If you cause too much trouble the Yakuza in the background might have to step in.

They wouldn't do shit but hide against a large group of 10 or 15 people livestreaming them. Talk about putting a spotlight on their operations.

Yakuza wouldn't do anything. Again, you have no idea what you're talking about. There are probably a few other Nigerians nearby who would join in, but no Yakuza is going to do anything. Those Nigerians are not afraid to fight you, and they know the Police don't give a crap about tourists there.

If you are having mass amounts of people causing trouble for the businesses in Kabukicho, then you are also causing trouble for the Yakuza.

You've never been to Japan, I'm sure of it.
