Japanese Protest for 2nd Day Against Rewriting Pacifist Constitution 
---------------------------------------------------------------------


 
In Japan, thousands marched outside the Japanese Parliament for a second
consecutive day to protest the plan to rewrite Japan's pacifist
constitution to allow Japanese troops to fight abroad for the first time
since World War II. Protesters demanded the resignation of Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe, who has pushed the new legislation. One of the
protesters spoke out.

Bohyun Lee: "I came because all I care about is peace between Asian
nations, and I think the security bills doesn't produce that."
