A city cab driver is in the hospital after being stabbed by a passenger who allegedly asked if he was Muslim, police tell NY1.

Investigators with the New York City Police Department say it all began Monday night when a 21-year-old man hailed a cab at 24th Street and Second Avenue in Manhattan.

Police say the passenger asked the driver, "Are you Muslim?" When the driver said yes the passenger pulled a knife and slashed him in the throat, arm and lip.

The 43-year-old driver was able to lock the passenger in the back of the cab and call 911.

Both the driver and the passenger were taken to Bellevue Hospital.

First off, the perp needs to receive a fair trial and get a bullet in the back of the head if he's found guilty.

We can hypothesize that a lot of resident liberals will suggest the same thing, that people who criticize Islam are a cause of all this. Let's just recognize that those doing so are being hypocritical. When a muslim extremist does something, it's not Islam's fault. After all, it's just an extremist with mental problems. But when an American (presumably anti-mosque person) does this, it reflects poorly on conservatives. Seems like a double-standard to me.

You are right. Relig-nuts are what stirred up the hate.

USS Cole
African Embassy Bombings
WTC
WTC II
Bali
Daniel Pearl
Taliban
Madrid Bombings

Now our relig-nuts are going to lump all Muslims together, much like you lump anyone who isnt a flaming liberal together.

Let's see a denunciation, then all conservatives leave cities posthaste. Since they are sacred liberal ground.

Why go so far? We got right-wing reactionary people stabbing our own citizens, blowing up buildings, and walking into churches blowing people away right here.

Yes, the global jihadi movement is the same as a few homegrown US whackos.

It's true, this person was responsible for his actions and no one else.

But following your previous logic if Islam caused 9/11 and all muslims should feel ashamed than this act was the fault of the hate Islam conservative movement we've got going on now and you and everyone else involved bear the shame of this persons violence even though you had no knowledge or control over them. It doesn't work one way for muslims and another way for you.

I'm not a part of any political organizations so even if he was you couldn't lump us together. I'm not religious so you can't connect us that way either. Maybe you could say we're both American. Assuming he's American actions reflects poorly on America but it's a drop in the bucket and hardly a pattern. Nice try though.
