I heard nothing about this beheading attempt either.

Please see post #7 in this thread, which is the result of some excellent detective work by FReeper RC30.

From RC30's posted link:

(edit)

The man sat between the two brothers and suddenly began stabbing the seat.

Andrew got up and told the bus driver what was happening. Despite the warning, the bus driver kept going.

(edit)

For the next hour, the man harassed other passengers before returning to the back of the bus.

Twice during that time, the bus driver pulled over, telling the man he would have to get off the bus. When he refused, the driver kept going.

(edit)

You’ll be on the news,” Josh recalled the man saying. “I’m going to cut your head off and throw it out the window.”

A reminder that when you are on public transportation, you are imprisoned in a metal container with anyone who can find or steal enough money for a ticket, and you shouldn't count on the driver to do anything other than drive the vehicle.

When did it become the drivers job to fight with mentally unbalanced passengers. If you don’t care enough about your own health to train to protect yourself, why should the driver. Carry a sidearm. Learn how to use it first.

Self responsibility, something socialists refuse to acknowledge exists.
