Worse, a gang of Muzzies pulling the same thing for a quickie public beheading.

From what I've read, they did a lot of this sort of thing (and worse) in Fallujah.

"Once inside the car, he hit the gas pedal, causing the chain to yank off his head, which flew back onto the street."

I hope they charged him with littering.
