A hateful scooter-riding suspect knocked a yarmulke off a Jewish man’s head in Brooklyn this week, police said Friday.

The 49-year-old victim, wearing traditional Jewish attire, was looking at his cellphone on 18th Avenue near 45th Street in Borough Park around 7:20 p.m. Wednesday when two men drove past him on a scooter and stopped, cops said.

The passenger got off the scooter, approached the man and said something indecipherable as he slapped off the head covering the victim was wearing, authorities said.

The perps look like dreamers...

Punch a white man in the head a dozen times, not hate crime.
F NYC.

AS ugly as this is - across NYC, there are raging bands of “Minorities” beating up on non-minorities - robbing, and generally being terrorits - but the NY ComPost can’t be bothered with that.

Whitey has it coming.

Why is this NATIONAL news?

[bigdaddy45]

It’s not. Its in the New York Post, which is a New York City Paper. Of course, with the rise of social media, and the ongoing need to feed the outrage machine, EVERYTHING then becomes national news.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Nah.

How do we know it was hateful!maybe he was just an idiot who thought it was funny.

[EEGator]

Khaki wearing does provoke anger...

[doorgunner69]

Rude, yes, but how did they decide it was hateful?

Protected class?

Why is this NATIONAL news?

My God, don't you understand? A MAN HAD HIS HAT KNOCKED OFF. His hat, dammit all. It was on his head, and then it simply wasn't! This is like Nazi Germany all over again!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tell It Right]

Why is this NATIONAL news?

Because it wasn't a red MAGA hat, which would be acceptable behavior to the MSM.

[Impala64ssa]

More proof that the biggest domestic terror threat are White supremacists /s

[dragnet2]

All the crap going on in NYC and someone is wringing their hands over a hat being knocked off?

[pas]

It is pointing out the hypocrisy of the other “mainstream” news sources.

[Chewbarkah]

Maybe, but they also look middle easternish.
Targeting and assaulting a Jew for wearing a symbol of his religious faith, is Terrorism. Will not do.

[crusty old prospector]

Too bad the Jewish fellow wasn’t packing heat.

The "knock out game" used to be a thing. Some people still play it.

Youths ride around in cars or bikes, and knock out a random stranger (random, but usually black-on-white), then post it on social media.

It's often much worse than knocking off a hat or yarmuka. Often it's a real "knock out." You punch them, or slam them with a baseball bat, so they're knocked out.

People have died from this "game."

Deadly "knockout game": what it is and why teens are playing it.

He’s a lousy Jew hater.

How would you like some idiot to knock your hat off?
