I can't understand why people just lay back and accept that? The theory that was told to me once is that they threaten to kill the people's family if they resist, but what's to say they won't anyway? And in all these cases, all these videos, surely there'd be one by now of a person who had no family and nothing to threaten them with. I've also heard that they are doped up when it's done, but even then you'd expect to see one or two over time where the person fought back or tried to flee.
You're going to die if you don't fight it, will probably die if you do but it'd be much better going out with forcing them to use a gunshot or something quick than just laying back while some inept morons try to figure out how a blade works. Even if there was an army of guys present I still can't see myself resisting the urge to fight back. Hell, best case you'd take control of the weapon and take one or two with you or even end up turning their birthdays off instead if it's just one or two people. Chances are slim but chances are zero if you don't.
Anyone know of a video like this where the person actually resisted? I just can't wrap my mind around accepting it and not even flinching.
The victims are most likely threatened with a torturous, a much more slow and painful death if they resist, and certainly with their loved ones' deaths... I wouldn't be surprised if the disemboweling was added for his small bit of resisting his beheading... If they cooperate they can die (fairly) quickly. If not... not so quick.
