Pacifist Constitutions Are A Good Thing

Here's hoping the protesters prevail.
Nine Japanese civic groups have voiced their opposition to a move by some politicians to change the country's pacifist constitution.

The protest was attended by some 360 people in Tokyo's Shibuya district.

Japan's constitution, written after World War II, renounces war as a sovereign right and says military forces will never be maintained.
