One man, indeed.

As I understand it, most of his prior convictions were drug related and one assault and battery.
No details.

Anyone know his age?

He stabbed her in the neck so hard he severed her head from her body. He then went on to a second victim, and was only stopped from killing her when the COO of the company shot him. We don't have any idea whether his religion played any part in this attack, we don't even know whether he intended to behead this woman. So, why don't you stay on point, and talk about what it actually is and was. Instead of the massive Islam-bashing we are seeing on this thread.
I don't think so. It take's a very sharp instrument, a lot of skill or time and physical effort to severe a head.

Because I'm an atheist, I want nothing to do with any religion because I believe most religions are the basis of most evil in this world.
Not all Muslims are violent extremists, but the overwhelming majority of violent extremists are sure as hell Muslim. And we're not even talking about a few hundred or a few thousand, but MILLIONS.

And I seriously don't understand how people can still defend Muslims when these people continually cause death and destruction against Muslims and non-Muslims alike on a daily basis. And even those that aren't as extreme also cause trouble by coming out and protesting and getting angry everytime someone does or says something that supposedly offends their effed up religion.

There is literally NOTHING you can do to appease these people who are eternally angry and so easily offendable short of becoming a Muslim yourself.

That exact sentence neatly wraps up far too many incidents which have happened over the past few decades.

I long ago came to the conclusion that hitting myself in the head with a ball peen hammer would be more productive than arguing with some a-hole on the street.
