They are afraid of bombs.

In my city center, after a terrorist attack decades ago with a bomb in one of them, all the trash bins were removed and never reinstated.

Everyone knows a bomb can only explode if it's within a trash can. I'm glad Japan no longer has to worry about this critical issue.

I all seriousness though, by all accounts I've heard Japan is very clean. The lack of trash cans is not an excuse people use and things work fine without them.

Its clean but there are a lot of stinky rubbish bags on the side of the road.

That makes the US's reaction to domestic terrorism almost reasonable.

Apparently we must have had a bomb thing with a bench at some point

Don't need a terrorist attack when all you need to do is be homeless
