    So, you think that the unarmed crowd should have attacked 2 guys that were armed with a gun, a car, and several large knives, and had already shown that they were looking to kill?

    Remember - none of these people had any weapons, and were still in shock from seeing these guys almost hack the guy's head off.
    Well since the record shows they basically wanted to die since they didn't leave or want to then no. I can't help wonder though what was stopping someone from driving a car over the suspects. I guess no one living near by had a rifle to use those are legal and would have helped.

    It's not easy to have a rifle there with their current laws, and how many people carry around rifles with them - even here, where it's much easier? I don't, do you? Shotguns are easier to get in the UK, but are usually only used by farmers in rural areas.

    Have you watched the footage? I haven't seen any cars drive on the street and it was blocked on one end. There is a bus farther down the street and a lorry near the body, and that is what the woman that confronted them got off of.
