A New York City cab driver insisted Friday that it is his right, hands down, to wear a Nazi armband even if the Taxi and Limousine Commission says otherwise.
As CBS 2s Lou Young reported Friday evening, Gabriel Diaz, 26, spoke outside of his familys home in the Throggs Neck section of the Bronx, after he was suspended for wearing a swastika while driving the cab.
I am. Im a National Socialist what you guys call a Nazi. I am. Im a believer of it, Diaz said.
Diaz was suspended for wearing the armband while driving his cab.
Not just once, but multiple times, photos sent to the Anti-Defamation League and to the Taxi and Limousine Commission sparked an investigation.
Diaz told Young he knew the symbol would offend some people, but denied being anti-Semitic.
I dont hate Jews. Im critical of them, but I dont hate them. That doesnt mean that Im anti-Semitic. That dont make me a hater, Diaz said. Who says you have to be white to be a National Socialist? You dont have to be white, it can by anybody. . . .

>>I would imagine that if you showed up for the interview and were wearing a suit and tie or even slacks and open collared shirt, got hired and then showed up for work in traditional mufti, YOU would have a case against the guy (or gal....or in todays world the ??????) if he claims he always wears it or it is his religious beliefs.<<
You would just disappear into the dumpster wrapped up in a roll of carpet. No lawsuit, no police report. Just a guy who never showed up for his first day on the job. I guess he got a better job somewhere else.
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

He does, and should. He has no right to a job.

You dont have to be white, it can by anybody.He doesn't hate Jews, he's just critical of them. In Nazi Germany, anti-Jewish measures were intensified. The Elephant Man had a little puffiness around the eyes.
