I wonder what ages or background they have, because the friends I have,
mostly 30's, in the music biz, are well aware of Japan's behavior during
WW-II (and other events that we usually don't hear about), and accept that
they're responsible, while understanding that the government has to keep
some 'face'.

I was just there - and everyone around the train stations where these guys
park ignore them, or stand around and heckle them... they don't take them
seriously.
