Funny that not one was named Frank James or Jesse James?
I wonder how many, if not all will be deported?
What a nice group of wholesome American names.
Doesn’t surprise me in the least.
Problem is, if they’re deported, how long before they’re back trying again?
Alcatraz or Gitmo them.
Or better yet, some desolate Aleutian Island at the very end of the chain. Air drop supplies for shelter and food for survival for a few months until they learn to fish or grow something.
“”What a nice group of wholesome American names.”””
Sounds like the Frito Banditos.
So in other words, Mexico and other countries south of the border didn’t send their finest.
Hmmm. They all have something in common, but I just can’t put my finger on it.
Robbing the trains that Americans won’t rob.
Don’t sound like H1-B visa workers. Those have no time for robberies.
The Loco Bunch.
Diversity is our strength.
Butch or Sundance
Hesperia California, where every 4th person is on parole or on the run. One big crime zone...
Jose or jos B

How many have already made return appearances.
If it wasn’t for the UP logo, I would swear that was in Mexico.
I thought it might be AI. But truth is still stranger than fiction.
I’d call ICE on every last one of them.
My comment writes itself (so obvious).
They are shoplifting without the middleman...Discount prices...why SHOPLIFT RETAIL WHEN YOU SHOPLIFT WHOLESALE .. 😀
