The article explains well why a tourist ban is hard to implement because how do you tell who is a tourist and who is there to worship when some people who are there to worship do nothing but throw a coin in which is the same as what most tourists might do anyway.
So at the end of the day they didn't really ban anyone, they just implemented a "be respectful" rule which people who is not going to be respectful are ignoring anyways.
They should have just gone with the "no foreigners" ban instead and ignored anyone who critisized them for it
Feels like they are afraid of getting in troubles with activists over foreigners ban so they changed it to some rule they can flexibly enforce and call police over.
Kind of like when some restaurants reject people who can't read Japanese instead of blanket ban on foreigners.
A ban on all foreigners is just as cowardly. The problems are overwhelmingly coming from non-white tourists. It's not the average Q-boomer family with cameras who are 'stealing, smoking and spitting', it's almost certainly the Chinese. There's no point growing the balls to discriminate but not enough to narrow it down. For our part, white people have to stop accepting that we should automatically fall into any discriminated-against basket as soon as anyone else starts restricting along racial lines.

"No Gaijin Allowed". Post it. It's fine. Understandable, we've seen what some gaijin do.
Terrorists. And they should fear us, not the other way around.

Loud and with a camera.
