Saitama is becoming Los Angeles, California. So i call it, " Los Saitama ". No offense to anybody !!!!

My friends don't like it when I call it "Da' Saitama" so I'll start using that more!

Hope they catch these desperados soon. Perhaps El Pasotama would be a good choice of name change.

This is the second JT story today where it has been used - there must be a translator somewhere for whom it's a pet word....

Bandits are very smart when come to robberies. I should perhaps even say that they are smart than security guards. How about to get more serious security force, with 'commando' training? I wouldn't open cash box for them that is almost certain. Instead I would have two cash boxes, o0ne with money and the other with golden bullets loaded gun. Guess which one I'll open up? Is this article trying to tell us how weak are guards, and an example to encourage others to do the same?

The bandits wore black masks, police said.

Does it say if they rode into town on horses, or on top of the mail train? Was the sheriff in the saloon? JT reporting gets wackier by the day.

The two, believed to be in their 20s to 30s, threatened a 27-year-old security guard and forced him to open the cashbox at its office to take the money, police said, Maybe the shop should invest in a safe...

Has no one thought to look at the local Japanese/Mexican restaurants? The bandits might be enjoying some fish tacos, and tequila. lol
