BS. If you don't know jackshit of the matter please kindly shut your mouth off and stop spreading misleading bullshit.

The Japanese media can't be trusted, or rather any major media can't be trusted. Most of the time they warp the truth to the public, only the ones behind the scene would know what actually happened. If you've watched enough Japanese documentary in varied fields, you would realize that sub-culture reports are manipulated, often potrayed in a bleak and negative manner when it's not, which then turns to the society looking down on the said matter.

> In Japan, the yakuza have a reputation for being street toughs with hearts of old and men who help the weak and poor. In the past they helped the police to control street violence and intimidate terrorist groups. The bosses often require their subordinates to be polite and friendly and visit their elders on Respect for the Aged Day.

>Some say the old traditions are disappearing. Former yakuza boss Takayama told the Washington Post, the yakuza "doesn't care anymore about obligations, tradition, respect and dignity. There are no rules anymore.

These are all true as you can see and observe from today's Japan. There are numbers of good articles pertaining to yakuza, however due to the mixed informations one have gathered from different sources (mouth to mouth, rumors, stereotypes, etc.) learning which one is the truth would be quite a difficult task.

A very good unbiased portrayal of the yakuza can be found here: http://youngyakuzafromjapan.blog135.fc2.com/ . I recommend you to watch the documentary film beforehand so you would grasp it with more ease, but whichever you prefer.
