Nobody was actually decapitated in the street in England, and no unarmed policemen watched this claimed decapitation. Fusilier Lee Rigby was brutally murdered by being run down with a car and subsequently stabbed to death in a cowardly attack by Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale. After Rigby was unconscious (possibly dead,) Adebolajo struck several blow's to his neck with a meat cleaver (reported as an attempt at decapitation). The only witnesses were several passers by, including Amanda Bailey, Gary Perkins and Gil Hicks - there were no police officers present. After the attack on Rigby, the two assailants deliberately waited for the police, scaring off the public by pointing a gun at them.
Contrary to the claims of simply standing by and watching made by some Americans, the jury heard of the bravery of passers-by. CCTV footage showed one woman who stroked Rigby's lifeless body and others who talked to Adebolajo, despite him holding the cleaver.
Both Adebolajo and Adebowale were shot (but not fatally) by the armed response squad, before being given first aid by these same officers.
If you wish to justify your national firearms addiction, by all means do so using legitimate evidence and logic, but do not employ dishonest hyperbole at the expense of some other society.
