"We also have a letter that you can download and adapt, to deliver to the Japanese embassy or consulate nearest you. Peaceful protest is not a crime - we do not expect you to get arrested for making a polite and respectful request at a Japanese embassy!  But please do keep it polite and respectful: the embassy staff are not our opponents.   "
