This is the straw that has broken the camel’s back.
Massive anti-immigration protests have erupted in Belfast, Ireland after a 30-year-old Sudanese immigrant was caught on video attempting to behead a man in the middle of the street.
The attacker was eventually stopped by a group of bystanders and later arrested.
The victim has been hospitalized and is suffering from life threatening injuries.
Here’s the video of the attack:

The New York Post provided further details on the sinister attack:
A Sudanese migrant has been arrested after a barbaric video shows someone seemingly trying to behead another man in the middle of a UK street in scenes likened to “something out of a horror movie.”
The horrific footage shows the blood-soaked knifeman pinning down his victim in Northern Ireland late Monday in an attack a local politician also branded “barbaric” and “medieval.”
The bloodied victim desperately kicked his legs before the knifeman repeatedly stabbed him in the head and neck, the video shared by Turning Point UK shows.
“Get off him you f–king rat!” one woman shouted as the deranged attacker showed off his weapon — as a man yelled, “He’s trying to cut his head off. He’s slicing his head off.”
Anti-immigration protests have since erupted all across Belfast:
