[Leica] camera bag/strap question

[kcarney1 at cox.net (Ken Carney)]

Thanks to all for commenting.  In looking further, it does appear that 
strap cutting is unusual and requires an over-achieving thief.  As noted 
most of the losses seem avoidable, e.g., pickpockets, carelessness.  
I've read that the thieves refer to the tourists as "the disoriented" or 
something like that.
