Knifeman shouting 'Allah is great' forces tourist to her knees as he holds a blade to her neck...
Daily Mail ^ | 7/14/15 | HANNAH ROBERTS

A tourist was forced to her knees at knifepoint at Rome's Colosseum in a terrifying attack that recalled an ISIS-style execution.

Hundreds of horrified visitors to the Italian landmark looked on as the attacker held a kitchen knife to the neck of a 26-year-old woman and yelled 'Allah is great' and 'It is God that sends me'.

The man held Chiara Frisco hostage for several minutes as he yelled religious fanaticism at the crowd with police powerless to act.

One witness said: 'It seemed like a scene from ISIS.

'He made the girl get down on her knees like you see in the terrorists' videos, while he held a knife to her throat.

'The only thing missing was the orange jumpsuit.'

Others told Il Messaggero he was yelling 'incomprehensible things, but among them "Allah is great".'

Try that say in Texas or any state that allows its citizens to carry.

Don’t Italian cops carry firearms?

Yes. I was in Rome during the Red Brigades terror, when a PM was murdered. I saw heavily armed carabinieri everywhere, usually packed into microbuses and minivans, and around Parliament, paratroopers in full uniform armed with Beretta submachineguns (the little ones in .25 ACP, that the Secret Service used to carry in the 70's).

Answer: Yes.

Just to follow up, the Italian Babe is safe. From the article:

When the police arrived, the attacker ran off through the Forum packed with tourists towards the centre of Rome, piazza Venezia, where he was disarmed and arrested.

This country should be full of Dirty Harry Callahans, in a way. There was a saying 20 years back--"You cannot invade the United States--there would be a rifle behind every blade of grass!"--and it was attributed to Japanese Admiral Isoruku Yamamoto.

I guess the idiots who watched this girl die are just the tip of the coward millenial iceberg that will finish off America. So, FU,SOB's! Hope you go out the same way, you gutless bastards!

"And he’s still alive why?"

It's kind of hard to overtake or restrain a perp with a rigatoni.

She didn’t die.

Reading the entire post, tends to stop most people from posting inane rants.

But have a nice day, bless your heart!

Q. How would this have ended differently in Texas?

A. Considering the comelines of the young lady there would be a heated argument between several young males as to who fired the perfect head shot and who was slightly off.

The really bizarre thing that the attacker was from Brazil and not from some Islamic country. Of course, Brazil is so crazy that it’s only a short hop to crazy Islam.

Someone said they couldn't shoot because they might have hit someone ...

These idiots have had too much sensativity training and not enough contact with humans

If I got hit because a cop missed , or it was a through and through and into me ... honestly ... once I found out the circumstances ... I'd let it go for hospital care and a steak dinner.

That’s a handsome woman. Glad she is okay.

Let’s start running these people over with steamrollers. I am sick to death of it.

One policemen that intervened at the scene explained how officers were unable to shoot the attacker for fear of injured people in the crowd.

Following standard protocol, the NYPD would have shot at him, missed, and ...

OK, sorry, tried to read the UK article, but got [kinda] lost. Thanks for the news she's alive!

My Dirty Harry comment still stands. As it should in a civilized world....

The cops were waiting for a dog to shoot, before they could act to help the young woman.

Brazilians know how to deal with this trash. European men got their heads so up their ass that they forgot their manhood between generations.
