Set up road blogs, round up the usual suspects, call in the dogs, and find this clown!!

Good to hear that the girl wasn't badly injured.

Sasebo has a US base - call in the army!!! Unless it was the army.

These sort of crimes are usually prevalent in the heat of summer. I wonder what made the guy flip now.

Round up the unemployed at gun point and capture all newspaper delivery persons! Inspect all media cafes and pornography stations!! Be alert for any Japanese male who washes more than two fingers in a public toilet!!

altria, there is a NAVY base there. It's usually funnier if you at least get the service right. But hey, you got the country right...

Good comment by my learned colleague FL, if JT is anything to go by, this crime was undoubtedly done by either a) an unemployed person or b) a newspaper delivery man. Currently, unemployed person is odds-on favorite.

Sounds like a waiter or doorman. Possibly of Chinese or Korean origin?

How come anytime a Japanese guy attacks a random passerby, he chooses a schoolgirl?

A sudden attack without any warning, without any reason. A typical scumbag.

This is not a laughing matter! What if it was your daughter attacked by one of these psychos? It's about time the Japanese government started to address this issue in earnest. It's a pathetic disgrace!

Disillusioned, what do you expect the government to do? The WHO has asked the J govt to clear 75,000 psychiatric beds, so there will be more and more of these people out and around, being taken care of by the community.

I say he was strinking back at something that eluded him during hios school-boy years! He is lashing out at her because he was unpopular with girls in school. The villian is a social misfit, coward and a failure in life. Those that attempt to molest the school girl are trying to assert their social social position. In other words, she has no value to him!! She can be bought-sold, stepped upon and abused, photographed and corrupted!! Those that hold her in such low regard, hold themselves in very high regard. In short the are spoilt and pampered boys who have made their mothers happy!! Mommy taught them that they are priceless and ever so precious and smart!! The odd thing is that the school girls who are tormented and abused by these foul vermin will create one!!!!!!!!!! Ahem...er...ah....if you amble through an adult video shop you'll notice that school girls and office ladies are HORRIBLY abused. While mothers are cherished and loved. It is possible to see one man looking longingly at a mother figure while another treats the dvd case containing a school girl theme with contempt. He knows what kind of education she needs and she won't resisit or giggle at his control rod.

For those of you too busy to read my essay, I will present it in brief.... They are safe to push around and considered worthless! Worthless by those who failed life and despised for their lack of sexual education by the "sucessful" J-male!

Young people have a hard time here. They either flip out and do the cutting because of the pressure parents and schools put on them, or they get cut up by a nutter. Sad.

I would say "Yellow Belly" but it would miss the point so lets just say "COWARD".

I agree with Romulus.

Who knows what the issue or reason could be???? Could anything. His actions do not give us a clue. The fact that they are always children maybe because it is convenient. You see them everywhere and they stand out in those uniforms. Doubt whoever gave the reason that "because they are cute." Might not be the first time he's done this either.

A nut on the loose in Sasebo, even in small cities it happens. I hope the catch this guy sooner than later and that the girl recovers quickly.

What is the world could make someone do this? I hope they catch him so he can recieve "treament" in prison... from Bubba-san!

What a 'scumbag' this is? Picking on school girl! Hope that they nab him soon, before someone else will cop it. If he done once he will do it again 170cms tall, good detectives should be able to find him soon. He deserves to be locked up for a long time. 'No mercy.'
