Man Walks Into Arab Bakery Yelling ‘F*ck Allah,’ Gets Knocked Out Cold (VIDEO)

Every bigot has the right to their opinion, no matter how reprehensible. Being closed-minded, unfortunately, typically also comes with being stupid.

If a person were to say, walk into an Irish bar in South Boston shouting obscenities that disrespected the religion and culture of the people who worked and frequented it, one might expect that person would have a bad day. This ignorant jackass does just that in an Arab bakery.

There will be many who watch this video and say things like, “I thought Islam was a religion of peace,” or, “See? They only know violence.”

Those people would be entitled to that opinion. I, on the other hand, choose to see this video for what it is. A very ignorant person takes his ignorant opinion where it isn’t welcome and a hot-headed young man who is obviously tired of the discrimination against Muslims puts him in his place for it.

His friends aren’t too happy about it, and certainly the man lying unconscious will wake up upset about it, and the youngster is sent home.

Does this young man have the right to defend his religion the way he did? Was the man so far out of line that he deserved a knock-out punch?

Everyone’s opinion will certainly differ, but one thing is for sure. Racial and cultural tensions in our world have reached the boiling point.

The guy who got hit was a jerk, but did not deserve to be hit. The police should have been called and the jerk escorted out.

  That guy thought he could get away with his racism and he found out he was wrong. I bet he is always a jerk so maybe this will be a learning experience for him.

    How was he racist? Religion does not equal race. Religion is chosen.

      There’s no such thing as Arab nationalism anymore, just identification as Muslim. If you want to known as Muslim first so be it.

That big fat loud mouth went in there looking for trouble - and he found it. His behavior was reprehensible and while I would have chosen to try to escort his fat ass out of the establishment, I cannot fault the young man who belted him. Had the police been called they would have no doubt shot up the place, hauled all the Muslims off to jail and bought the load a beer.

I can’t say I don’t think the guy deserved it, and it was just a punch-out, but how far must we go down the route of logic to say that this guy was the cause of his own consequence, just as the artists from Charlie Hebdo were? Can you apply that to their deaths, that they got what they deserved?

Obviously, a knock-out is far from a murder, but the excuse is the same if that’s your argument.

  The Hebdo writers weren’t standing in a Mosque shouting the content of their cartoons. There is a difference.

  Freedom of speech but watch what you say is the logic here.
- Spawn_of_Santa
  
  Hebdo writers didn’t seek out a Muslim Audience to spew their “art.” This jackwagon clearly did.
Mark R. DeMist

Hell’ I’m not a Muslim but I would have knocked that jerk out too.
- jerry11
  
  I hope you are a teenager because if you are an adult and have that attitude, then you probably need to do some deep thinking. Subduing the man and removing him would have been the answer.
  - Mark R. DeMist
    
    Subduing doesn’t teach a lesson. Getting punched in the face for being an obnoxious jerk does.

        Of course he’d do it again. He was dumb enough to do it the first time.

I think the violence against the bigot was entirely justified. Those were fighting words if ever there were any.
- madmidgitz
  
  what if i take your words as fighting words? what i took any random thing you said as a personal affront to my religion? do i get to hit you?
  - Spawn_of_Santa
    
    Sorry, there is a test for fighting words. “Words which would likely make the person whom they are addressed commit an act of violence.”
    
    There has to be some sort of rational behind them and merely being offended by what someone says is not enough.
    
    The offense has to be of a particular type. Words that “by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace.”
    
    I.E. walking into a black church and yelling “you’re all a bunch of dumb n……rs!”
    
    OR Walking into an OBVIOUSLY Muslim establishing and saying “F@c k Allah!”
    
    Are CLEARLY offensive and likely to cause a response.
    
    merely saying that Bullies need to be beat up, or Bigots are bad…. well, if that upsets you then you are so far outside the norm that YOU probably need psychological help, or an involuntary commitment.
Jerry Gordo LeBel

Someone being a big mouth or offending what you believe in does not justify violence, It only taints your faith. If that guy wanted to defend his faith he should follow his own teachings. I’m an environmentalist, should I have a free ticket to punch out a litter bug.

So if offending Allah in front of three people warrants getting knocked out, offending Allah in an international publication must be worth some deaths.

Yeah. I see where you guys are going with this.
- oh_my_why_me
  
  There is a big difference between getting your teeth knocked out, and being killed. It’s not even the same ballpark.
  - TotallyJaded
    
    There’s also a big difference between making an off-color comment in a room full of people, and making one in global print.
    - Robert Ryan
      
      Yes, there is a big difference. The people in the room during the real-time insult can claim their response was impulsive. The ones exposed to print media who plan murders cannot make that claim.
      - TotallyJaded
        
        So the difference in whether or not using brute force to silence opposing viewpoints is justified lies in the degree of premeditation?
        
        Interesting.
    - pauleky
      
      Yep, the difference being you’re not shouting in their faces. Are you saying that if someone stood in your face and insulted things important to you or insulted you personally you’d just stand there? There’s being tolerant and then there’s being a doormat or worse.
      - Calthopian
        
        Yes, whatever happened to “sticks and stones”? I’m a really small guy, I’m short, skinny, and not that muscular; I’ve had to learn to not get into fights because I will never win. Letting someone say something, no matter how offensive, is the exact point of free speech. I’m guessing that the pastor who “crumpled” that kid for not “respecting God” was also in the right? Is there any difference between those? Or is it just because the guy in this video is muslim and muslims are oppressed?
      - Terror is as terror massacres
        
        Being a loudmouthed prick, who is so spoiling for a fight, that he goes into an Arab bakery just to let people know that he hates them and feels entitled to harass them, ABSOLUTELY deserves a punch in the (so-called) face.
        
        What happened to “sticks and stones” is that our hate speech started to seem less ‘harmless’ after we slaughtered a million or so Muslims in the course of our Middle Eastern Crusades.
        Whoever punched that land-manatee could be forgiven for presuming that a hostile skinhead wouldn’t necessarily confine himself to words.
        
        Do you really not know the difference between punching a belligerent adult and assaulting a child? Or are you such a bigot that you feel entitled to oppress Muslims without any consequences?
      - TotallyJaded
        
        I am saying that I would not resort to violence in order to quell speech I don’t agree with.
        
        Being an adult with self control is much different than being a doormat.
      - Gil Batzri
        
        Responding to an insult != to quelling speech you don’t agree with.
        
        Sorry, he has the right to say what he likes, he does not have the right to free speech without consequences.
        
        No one quelled his right to say what he likes. But what he said caused consequences.
        
        Much like if you wander up to someone standing next to their wife, and call her a fat whore, you can expect to get punched in the mouth, it is not quelling your right to speak, it is exposing you to the consequences of your actions.
      - TotallyJaded
        
        You can parse it any way you like. It doesn’t change the fact that someone didn’t like what the guy had to say, and knocked him unconscious for saying it.
        
        Let’s boil it down: at what point does it become wrong? Where do you draw the line between this, and a Tea Party rally with Obama-Hitler posters at the local playground? Or street corner preachers telling you you’re going to hell? Or the militant Atheist at a dinner party who insists everyone who’s not purely secular is wrong? How about Jews for Jesus prosthelytizing in Orthodox neighborhoods?
      - hardwroc
        
        Your point is well taken, but, it still goes to show you there ARE consequences to actions, which I believe falls under that “personal responsibility” thing the GOP likes to repeat til our ears bleed. I personally would have liked to see this kind of action when that jack ass felt he it was OK to shout out “you lie” at Obama during the SOTU .
      - TotallyJaded
        
        Oh, I don’t disagree.
        
        But your example is pretty great. As we all know, Obama didn’t step down from the podium and slap the guy, and neither did any Democrat. Whether or not he “deserved it”, they took the relatively high road.
      - hardwroc
        
        And that failure to act “decisively” in that instance has seemingly given the GOP the impression he’s “weak”, despite accomplishing more than their invasion and occupation regarding Al Queda. I’m still awaiting the thought process on how his efforts equate to the “destruction of America” after resurrecting the US from a flaming death spiral economically from the GOP administration prior. I’ve always thought, BAD things fit that description far more closely than repairing the damage from those bad things. Is there a different set of definitions for the right?
      - Gil Batzri
        
        I draw the line at verbal assault, which is what this was an example of. Yes, the kid who decked him was not in the right, but you don’t have the right to verbally assault someone, “Because free speech”.
        
        Protest/Rallies and and street corner preaching are not verbal assault.
        
        If the “militant atheist” whatever that means, is at said dinner party is getting in someone’s face and screaming at the top of their lungs and acting in a threatening manner, it likewise is verbal assault, and should violence ensue as a result, while I wouldn’t condone it, I would understand it.
      - Gil Batzri
        
        That fellow was not expressing “his views” he walked in there, said something mocking (I presume in arabic) and then started his show.
        
        So boiling it down as you say, is not relevant.
        
        I agree with your general point that violence is not an answer to anything, but responding to one type of violence with another, while not the best solution, is one that I feel can reasonably be expected.
        
        And it doesn’t infringe on anyone’s right of expression.
- Terror is as terror massacres
  
  Being a belligerent, loudmouthed bigot, who is so spoiling for a fight, that he goes into an Arab bakery just to let the people inside know that he hates them and feels entitled to harass and oppress them, ABSOLUTELY deserves a punch in the (so-called) face.
  - TotallyJaded
    
    What about the belligerent loudmouthed bigot that doesn’t stop at a single bakery, but on every news stand you pass?
    
    What about the Occupy protestor burning an American flag? Is he deserving of a beat-down (or worse) from someone armed with a tricorn hat and a pistol?
    - Terror is as terror massacres
      
      Whether or not it is fair to punch a bully may be the least controversial query ever examined.
      Your wildly inappropriate comparisons are neither persuasive nor clever.
      A protester burning a flag is BULLYING NO ONE. (It would also be incoherent for your hypothetical assailant to try to claim that he respects America so much that he couldn’t stand to see its flag burned, while at the same time demonstrating the fact that he has no respect for America’s free speech, but that is beside the point, given the fact that your comparison is void by virtue of the fact that the hypothetical protester is BULLYING NO ONE.)
      I think you’re right to characterize Charlie Hebdo’s magazine as belligerent bigotry, and I agree that that oppressive propaganda was made worse by the fact that it was on every news stand, rather than only existing in one place. Nonetheless, it is simply maniacal to compare a BLOODY MASSACRE to punching an aggressive bully, while he was in the act of bullying people. So why try to compare those two things? The bullying bigot wasn’t shot; he was punched. Once.
      Your supposed confusion doesn’t strike me as legitimate.
      - Calthopian
        
        Oh, I didn’t realise that you thought the Hebdo magazine brought about their own shooting, if I had I would never have responded to you because that is the most pernicious tripe ever written. I guess we have to make sure we control our own thoughts so that nobody gets offended rather than just realising that people think differently and violence is never a way to respond to speech.

        They treasure “confusion” on the right, it’s in their blood, their brains, and their policies, as well as their Media outlets.
      - TotallyJaded
        
        “They” who? Certainly not me.
        
        Throughout this thread, I’ve taken a stance of non-violence. It’s no small irony that in to MLK Day, people who imagine themselves as liberal are advocates of violence.
        
        (Edit: I initially said “on Bloody Sunday and in to MLK Day.” I was wrong on my date for Bloody Sunday.)
      - hardwroc
        
        I believe your are missing something in my points. I’m NOT advocating violence, but, I am pointing out it happens when some go looking for trouble, it finds you. He did, and it did. Most people in America would react similarly if you came into their home and insulted their family or their faith I’m afraid.
        I too prefer the non-violent ways to change society for the better as was done by MLK. I was a fortunate one, living in the west coast region during that time, and finding it surreal that it was as it was in that region of our nation. Time will tell if our nation and world will grow to be a more positive place, or spiral into a living hell.
      - TotallyJaded
        
        Sorry. Throwing up the tired accusation of “bullying” doesn’t change the fact that you’re advocating violence as a legitimate means to silence a person.
        
        There are people who take burning the American flag as a very personal affront. The fact that you or I may not interpret it that way is completely irrelevant. We can find passages in the Koran or the Bible that boil down to “turn the other cheek”, which nullifies your nullification. We can also find passages in both that boil down to “kill the infidels”. There’s no value in ascribing absolutes to symbolism.
        
        Incidentally, I am not, and have not said “A massacre and punching someone are the same thing”. The entire time, I’ve used it as a matter of scale. You’re interpreting my questions as supposed confusion, but the only real question is (and has been) “How violent does the reaction need to be before it’s wrong?”
      - Terror is as terror massacres
        
        If you’re “tired” of reality, then I suggest you exit it.
        
        I have no interest in readdressing issues I’ve already addressed, or denying things I clearly haven’t said.
        
        If you have an adult level of comprehension, then you are being WILFULLY obtuse, and if you don’t, then you shouldn’t be bothering people.
        
        Interest irretrievably lost.
      - TotallyJaded
        
        Well, there you go.
        
        If you can’t hit someone, resort to ad hominem, right?

    And when that happens in Mexico, by NON-Muslims, what or WHO do you hate and blame then?

Try to think, if it’s not too hard to make that muscle work after all the atrophy it’s suffered.
    - R. R. Roehl

Violence is never the solution to anything. He may have “deserved” it, however what is it going to solve? He is still going to be a bigot and the person that hit him will now probably be facing charges.

  Do you really believe that he would have stopped at just yelling? He would have decided that they were weak and he would have begun either destroying their business or he would have started attacking them. So punching this inbred MF was the kindest thing to do to him. Though I am NOT a Muslim, I would have gladly applauded this young man.

  Sometimes when you think everyone else is getting it wrong, it’s not actually everyone else; it’s you.

  Further to the point, targeting your belligerent hate at “Arabs” is not just bigoted; it’s also racist.
  
  Why would anyone defend a hostile bully?

Could be worse. He could have walked in there and blown himself and the place up.
John Lynch

I didn’t get to see the video. Having said that, I don’t think the guy should have been knocked out. I thought religions were peaceful and words like that, if you are true to your religion, should roll off your back. But, what the guy got was reassurance of why he hates the Muslim religion. Not a good move by BOTH parties involved and the reason why I don’t like religions. The worst scum of the earth use it to validate violence. And, the rest seem to cheer it on. Even though they say they “abhor” violence.
Kelli Crackel

Look, if you want to be a bigoted jackass, you have that right. But, if in your bigotry, you decide to go to a place owned and frequented by the people you are bigoted against and scream an insult at these people. You’ve gotta take responsibility for the fact that you busted up into a place that had nothing to do with you other than it was a place run by the people you are trying to be bigoted against and tried to start shit. Whatever violence ensues, it’s on you, not them. It’s no different than a white supremacist wandering into a predominantly African-American establishments and saying “f**k n****rs’. When you do this you are looking for a fight and being an idiot. So if you want to be a bigot, knock yourselves out. Wear your swastikas and confederate flags. Go around picking fights with the people you are bigoted against. Just don’t think, for one minute, that you have the right to complain when you get your ass handed to you by someone who you were deliberately trying to pick a fight with.
http://bluefeverblog.wordpress.com/ Nik

Eh, he was acting like an idiot for sure, but the guy that hit him was a little hot-head himself. I don’t think the violent reaction was warranted. I’m more impressed by the guy who was upset that he did that.

anyone’s MAMA. We will BECOME stark raving VIOLENT. (Every last one of
us). Even if we don’t like our MAMA. Maybe that is how they feel about
their GOD.

When he said that, he also threw filth in our father’s face. The God Of Abraham is the God Worshiped by Jews, Christians an Muslims. So technically, I would have had the right to give him the back side of my hand to! So this stupid little man was cussing at his own God! Stupid be gets stupid!

Not cool. They hit him for the same reasons people murdered everyone at Charlie Hebdo. The hypocrisy is crazy here.

Pope Francis said it well (paraphrased as I understood it): play nice. don’t poke the bear. the bear will bite. play nice. don’t poke the bear. freedom of speech comes with responsibility.

Punching a guy for insulting a non-existent deity. Now that’s the real stupidity right there. If someone went into a “Christian” business and said “F*** Jesus” the people would most likely either (a) ask him why he says this and try to talk to him about it, or (b) ask him to leave and if he doesn’t leave, just call the cops.

    Since all religions are equally protected under the Constitution, an attack on one, is an attack on all. In fact, unless I’m mistaken, the Christian Bible scriptures tell us that. Time for a moment of reflection Swen.

Let’s face it. Muslims are a sub-human species.

Read the post above yours. Semantics are not actually DEALING with the problem, they merely derail it, and it needs to be discussed to move forward. Try to see if you cannot cope with actually being part of the conversation.

For those that think this guy is practicing his right to free speech… This is not free or protected speech. “Fighting Words” Words which would likely make the person whom they are addressed commit an act of violence. Fighting words are a category of speech that is unprotected by the First Amendment. Chaplinsky v New Hampshire, 315 U.S. 568 (1942)

This is not an example of free or protected speech. If it happened in the U.S. and I don’t think it did but if it did…. “Fighting Words”

  by that logic going to a redneck bar and saying you are gay is “fighting words”
  
  he didnt yell any racial slurs, he didnt insult anyone personally, he insulted an IDEA, A IDEA
  
  and that means he deserves to be knocked out?
  - Tony Anzalone
    
    It is not logic it is the law. I never said he “deserved” to be knocked out but if you are asking my answer is that I don’t think anyone deserves to be punched for any reason. But it doesn’t matter what I think. You said this is a free speech issue and I am simply saying that it is not. His speech would not be protected by the authorities. No cops would escort him into a business like this and allow him to say this and then protect him. Get it? Not protected speech. Not a free speech issue. But that doe not protect the attacker from being charged either. Assault is assault period.

      so according to the law someone could hit me for saying i was gay since it offended them so much, or any other reason they could take offence to me

    With a punch that good….Yes!!! LOL
Alec Higgins

Lucky they didn’t behead him
Hanitylies

There is a huge difference between free speech and consequence-free speech. This guy got punched for being an asshole. Allah was just the language. If he had walked into any other place being an aggressive jerkoff, he would have been dropped just the same. This has NOTHING to do with Islam. Try walking into a bar in the south and spouting off about Jesus, and see how long before you get pulled into the parking lot and shown some christian peace.
Hanitylies

Seriously? The guy who got punched is the hero here? Wow.

You can’t fix Stupid but you can knock it’s stupid Butt out! I can see Christians doing the same thing.

Also…good punch.

That man, got exactly what he was asking for. I enjoyed the sound of the punch. I have a bit of distain, for any religion. If you respect me, I will 100% respect you back.

You never see the KKK walking into Black Churches and spouting their crap.

And for better or worse, SOMETIMES Violence IS the answer.

yeah so they both showed just how fucked up all religion is. he mouths off, they respond with violence. same thing if it were reversed. religion is what made the world the mess it is today. now watch all the fundy-christians jump all over me for my comment and call me names to prove how christian they are. LOL!

How awesome was that? This and the video where the father knocks out a young punk who called his daughter and her friends dykes and cunts are the two best videos of 2015

WHEN are people going to learn to turn their phones sideways.

Great video anyway,.
Tony Anzalone

Ha ha ha, nope. If you go into someone’s house or place of business and angrily insult their belief system expect to get knocked out. Imagine a Muslim walking into a working class Italian place in New York and yelling $hit about Christ or the saints or their mothers.
Ian Rynex

Looks like a stunt. I don’t think the guy hit him hard enough to knock him out on THE FIRST punch, lol.
Nilan25

Yeah, like the problem was Islam was not violent enough.

Javier you are an intolerant idiot with no respect for other religions and by the way I am not Muslim…
