Maybe being peaceful isn't all it's cracked up to be?

Spent a few months in Japan as a "Hairy Barbarian"... That covers most of the rest of the World.
Plus we "Smell Bad". We eat Meat. That's how they see us. It's not important to them that they smell like dead fish to us...  We're Barbarians to a Thousand year old Culture, that takes pride in falling to it's knees to bow.

No, but like I said earlier, those high suicide rates are a mother!!
Probably explains why they are so peaceful....

I'm not sure of the spelling Rdnor,,, but if you've ever smelled a "fresh" pot of Korean "Kim Shi" that's been dug up from the back-yard after fermentation....
You don't want to be down wind...
