Another shrine roof in Japan has been stripped of its copper—this time in large quantities. The victim: Koyasu Shrine in Kamimuguchi, Komatsu City. Because the copper plates were torn off, the main hall is now leaking when it rains. The local community leader, Yoshiaki Kawamoto, said: "Everyone in the community is devastated. This shrine is something we’ve all cherished for generations." Shrines in Japan aren’t just buildings. They’ve always been there—quietly protecting the land, watching over the people. And in return, locals have continued to offer their prayers. This isn’t just theft. This is the destruction of something deeply rooted in our culture. How many times is this going to happen? Seriously… enough is enough. #Japan #Shrine #CulturalHeritage #Crime #ProtectJapan
