To answer your question BB yes, I honestly think there would have been less attention. I'm not saying it wouldn't have been headline news but I don't think it would've been the top story.Because there would not have been the same sense of outrage, generated by friends and family.
Are British soldiers generally Christian? Was Lee Rigby? Most British people aren't Christian these days, so are soldiers? Were the British soldiers black? Are the Islamist terrorists really Muslims? Lee Rigby's family say they aren't.How does this relate to the media coverage of women in the UK?What's the underlying principle?
Point of fact. We as a nation sent troops into two Muslim countries, unleashing wars that led to maybe a million Muslims dying. A few of them in extra-judicial murders. I don't recall there being riots here over it.

Maybe there wasn't a political agenda going on at the time that could use the story to support the agenda?Here's a question for you.Were there riots when Lee Rigby got his head hacked off by those two evil bas**rds?Would there have been riots if two members of the British army had hacked the head off a radical Islamist?
Riots, SS.

He implied there would have been riots.I said that British soldiers violently killed many Muslims in what are now widely accepted as illegal wars. There were no violent protests in the UK in response.
Is it possible to kill someone without being violent?
