FUJIKAWAGUCHIKO, Japan (AP) — The town of Fujikawaguchiko has had enough of tourists. Known for a number of scenic photo spots that offer a near-perfect shot of Japan’s iconic Mount Fuji, the town on Tuesday began constructing a large black screen on a stretch of a sidewalk to block the view of the mountain.

The neighborhood suddenly became a popular spot about two years ago, apparently after a photo taken in a particular angle showing Mount Fuji in the background of a local convenience store, became a social media sensation.

    The article talks about how tourism is important to the town, literally being built on it, but it’s just this spot is especially bad because tourists are behaving badly by illegally crossing the street and trespassing, among other things.

    What you said is 100% just made up bullshit. Why?
