“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” (Qur’an 47:4)
A statue of Jesus is not an “unbeliever,” but it is an expression of unbelief from an Islamic standpoint: an affirmation of belief in the divinity of Christ and the Incarnation, both anathema to Islam.
“NYC taxi driver charged with hate crime after allegedly decapitating Jesus statue in wild caught-on-camera tantrum,” by Dean Balsamini, New York Post, July 13, 2024:
A NYC taxi driver was hit with a hate crime for allegedly beheading a statue depicting a young Jesus outside a Queens Catholic church, prosecutors said.
Jamshaid Choudhry, 44, of Hollis, was arrested Thursday night and charged with criminal mischief as a hate crime and other related crimes for allegedly decapitating the statue outside of the Holy Family Roman Catholic Church in Fresh Meadows on June 30.
The twisted, caught-on-camera tantrum began casually.
A sacrilegious scoundrel driving an SUV taxi pulled up to the front of the church around 5:30 a.m. and calmly crossed the street, before removing a shoe and charging toward white marble statues of Mary, Joseph and Jesus, according to police and footage released by the Diocese of Brooklyn.
The taxi driver swatted the heads of Mary and Joseph with his shoe, then turned his attention to Jesus and hacked at its head until it went spinning to the ground, the footage shows. He also allegedly spit on the religious statue, prosecutors said.
The suspect is then seen calmly walking off, shoe still in hand….
SC says
He needs to be stripped of his right of abode in the USA and thrown out of the country into gitmo with his hate crime conviction. Let’s see is anyone will take him.
Ian Senior says
Agree. It’s beyond time to pushback Islam out of all Western countries.
PRCS says
Ain’t gonna happen.
Gameplan ‘B’?
Gourdhead says
I’m ready.
George says
Those people should send them back to their home countries even in their country they hate each others that’s why the governments they have to stop accepting them
Ginger Firestone says
We know he’s Muslim, but I didn’t read anything that said he wasn’t a citizen. That would make a big difference. If he’s not – then yes, toss his arse out of our country. I don’t care what religion a person is – but if you want to change our country to suit “outsiders” then it’s time to say “no more”. Stop trying to be so darn inclusive – if they want to come here and assimilate, then fine, but if you want to make our country into the hellhole you came from, then go back home.
somehistory says
This crime made the news, briefly, but I had not seen any follow-up accounts. Didn’t really expect to. Will he be found to be ‘mentally’ something or other? Will he be found guilty of a crime and sentenced to something?
Some of the crimes committed by mozlums just seem to disappear. Like the one in Colorado where ten people were murdered at a grocery store. Is the perp still in the mental facility?
And the more recent one where a young girl was raped and the police kept it secret for as long as they could before even making it known to the public.
This taxi driver is dangerous to any infidels he has in his car; esp so with young women. What will they do with him?
Peacelover says
Wonder if CNN(or any of the other associated channels) has or if ever would report the above story?
somehistory says
I don’t recall which site had the initial story….I read a lot of FOX headlines, accounts and listen to some video. But, I only saw it once.
I can say it was probably not on cnn where I saw it. And I have not seen any follow up, except for this NYP story reported here.
Most sources don’t tell us much about mozlums….except for some I’ve seen where they are crying and whining, or some try to make us feel good about them.
There was one story about two mozlums , man and wife, who went to mecca and died in the heat. I saw that over and over for about a week. It was a pity party story.
Peacelover says
Thanks. I do not watch cnn myself but I am aware of their ‘angle’ on most things that’s why I asked.
somehistory says
You are welcome. I only read cnn or listen if something in the headline is curious…some guest they have with whom I may agree, etc.
Ginger Firestone says
Well, they went to Mecca and found what they were looking for I guess. Make stupid choices, get stupid results. They couldn’t possibly have not known it would be hot there.
mgoldberg says
I wonder if he’ll actually face punishment. Interfaith dialogue…. isn’t that what the liberal church demands nowadays? You know, a small fine, perhaps cleaning the rectory every day for two hours and listening to lectures about interfaith harmony?
Ron says
Send him back to Dumbfukistan
PRCS says
Send him to jail, consitent with our laws.
gravenimage says
Send him to jail, then if he is not a citizen, deport him.

Before accepting a ride taxi, Uber, etc., check the operator’s nameplate.
If it’s an islamic sounding name, don’t get it.

Unfortunately, in some places, like Northern Virginia, the only Uber/Lyft drivers that one often finds are muslim ones. Forget US citizens, even non-muslim immigrants hardly take these jobs
The only time I’ve used Lyft (I don’t use Uber) has been when going to the airport, or when I had to be dropped to or from hospital & couldn’t drive myself. Otherwise, it’s always my own car that I use
James Lincoln says
Infidel,
Understand, and thank you for your reply.
From what I have heard anecdotally, I think that the Medallion Taxi drivers are better screened than either Lyft or Uber.
gravenimage says
I don’t drive. In this area, at least, most Uber drivers appear to be Infidels–at least for now. But many cab drivers are Muslim, and that accounts for the majority of them in San Francisco across the bay from me.
rubiconcrest says
Just make a deduction from our support of the UN for every act of Muslim violence to repair the damage and to make a statement. Start a list of the hate crimes etc… done in the name of Islam. Identify the religious texts that condone the violence so there is no mistaking the doctrinal cause. If the UN does nothing they will be soon be out of jobs. Instated of jizyah we will call it hayzij.
Cato the Elder says
When in Rome…
Cut off his right hand, deport him to Syria. The plane doesn’t have to stop, just push him out.
Gourdhead says
I like the way you think.

Of course, no Muslims would ever face Shari’ah punishments for destroying Infidel religious statuary.
CalvinsLutheran says
Desecration of a magnitude THEY would and will set our communities on fire ? over. As the ZOMBIFIED West does nothing the creeping DHIMMITUDE begins. This is beginning of what the Left thinks is FREEDOM FROM RELIGION. Little do they know that it would be freedom from the faith that gives us FREEDOM FROM OTHER RELIGIONS HOSTILE TO OUR FREEDOMS. Frog in the slow boiling pot. Revelation Chapter 18.
Ian Senior says
In Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England an Autistic child accidentally dropped and scuffed the Muslim holy book Quran and these Muslims went ballistic saying the child needs to be punished for insulting the Prophet Muhammad.
The child became terrified and the mother was forced to make a public apology.
Elsewhere in West Yorkshire a teacher is in hiding through the fear of being harmed by Muslims.
Britain is being ruled by Islam because we have a weak Government and leadership. Even the leadership of the Church of England is weak and capitulates to Islam
gravenimage says
Yes–sick stuff. No Infidel would damand the punishment of a disabled child for dropping a religous book.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Since it’s in NYC, how were there no hobos or other thugs to just take him out? Give him the instant justice that he’d get in Pakistan had he dared, say, tear a page out of a quran
gravenimage says
Of course, Infidels rarely act like this, including the homeless.
angelo barbato says
A couple of posts here exclaim to throw them out of the country. Muslims should first be vetted before allowing them to migrate to any Western World country. Imagine inviting your murderers into your house. That’s exactly what the West is doing!
Mike says
Angelo: true, but a lot of thrm practise taqiyya and shamelessly lie.
As for vetting them for criminal records, a lot of them may not have such records even though they may have committed crimes in their home countries or elsewhere outside the U.S.
Moreover, many of the ones who commit crimes against non-Muslims (in countries like Pakistan, for example) may not even be given criminal records, because often the local authorities don’t even charge them with crimes in such instances.
PRCS says
ab,
To the extent possible, EVERY immigrant/asylum seeker/refugee/visa holder should be properly vetted prior to entry.
But, as too many have not been (thank you, Dementia Joe), what to do, what to do.
James Lincoln says
Agree, PRCS.
But if it is impossible to properly vet them, they should not be allowed in.
PRCS says
+1
gravenimage says
Agreed, PRCS and James.
Brian K says
It’ll be an “UH OH!!” moment when he stands before the real Jesus on judgment day
WPM says
This happen in NYC nothing will happen to the taxi driver ,now if he took down a gay flag or banner from a restaurant he would be charge with a” hate crime” lock up without bail .You have people marching shouting from the river to the sea and openly threating Jews in board daylight the police do nothing. You have vandalized Christian churches at night nothing will happen ,they will just say he is mental ill ,not even take his drivers license away or stop him from picking up fares By the way left out of the article the church said it would cost over 20k to repair the statue reported in local paper. Why is only “criminal mischief” for over 20k damage done ?
T.jefferson says
How about he gets beheaded and spit on to make an example that lawlessness is not tolerated.
Just sayin.
Sadly, it is in NY.
Let him go find a church in the ozarks and try that?
gravenimage says
Christians in the Ozarks would not behead him, either. They might kick his *ss before turning him over to the sheriff, though…
Noah Andeark says
The terrorists at the terror org CAIR will say the stopping his from cutting off the statue’s head is the same as preventing a Catholic from praying the Rosary or a Jew from lighting Sabbath candles.
It’s in the koran.
ALfromNY says
No INFIDEL, Christian, Jew or any other INFIDEL should EVER patronize any moslem food cart, taxi, retail store. EVER!! THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT OUR FRIENDS!!
WPM says
I boycott all food cart in Manhattan most are now run by Moslems ,I boycott all Moslem run business I can. I would not trust them with the food I eat or items they sell ,buying from them is like buying something from the Nazis in the 1930s..Anyone whose main idea of their religion is to either enslave me or kill me cannot be trusted not to poison my food ,or hurt or kill my family if they get a chance. Can anyone point out a signal positive thing Islam immigration bring to a non-Moslem tradition country? Self preservation is not a racist mindset ,if you distrust cult followers who want you either dead or enslaved as their end goal in invading your country.
ALfromNY says
Well said, my friend!! NEVER GIVE ANY MONETARY AID TO ANY MOSLEM PIECEOFSHIITE!! (pardon the redundancy). What a shame so many NYC dwellers aid and abet the enemy by buying from halal food carts. No matter how hungry or thirsty I am, I will NEVER put $1 into the hands of any muzzieScum
James Lincoln says
WPM says,
“Can anyone point out a signal positive thing Islam immigration bring to a non-Moslem tradition country?”
Nothing.
There is no added value – and nothing but downside.
somehistory says
All in the negative column. If it concerned a business, and no profit showed for two consecutive quarters, it would stop. And then all things acquired (mozlums) would be sold or sent to the garbage dump as a “loss.”
gravenimage says
Good exchange.
Katman says
Expel All MOSLEMS back to the shit hole from there they are from as there are NO GOOD MOSLEMS & every MOSLEM is a mentally defective diseased individual.
Nabil Bissada says
Let me tell you something Muslims are cowered. If the driver was sure if he will be punished and deported. He will never do it.
Muslims act according to the opportunity you are giving to them.
Muslims cannot do the same thing in North Korea, China,
Deal with Muslims by the same way Muslims countries are dealing with them. No human rights, no democracy, no freedom. This is the only language Muslims understand and respect.
By acting human rights, democracy and freedom with Muslims you are giving them power to ruin the country. if Muslims get the power we will lose our freedom, human rights and democracy.
Wise words
“Western countries and the Muslims.
“. Do not blame the snake when you find him in your bed. Blame who opened the cage for the snake.”
gravenimage says
I take your point, Nabil Bissada. But we should not change our civilized laws for Muslims. Just start vigorously enforcing them.
Kevin Kraemer says
NYC punish a muhamadist, that will never happen. How about this, let’s build a statue of mohammed and them decapitate it in front of him and muhamadists like him and see what would happen. What should happen to him is his license should be revoked and he should be sent packing but that is wishful thinking.
OLD GUY says
As the population of muslim/islamic young men increases in America we will see many more acts of violence, destruction of property, rape and murder of our Citizens. STOP the migration invasion.
somehistory says
And when non-mozlum psychopathic youth see how mozlums get so many easy-peasy sentences, or none, they begin to *practice* in order to get a friendly tap (as opposed to a jail-house slap) when they do damage, rape or kill.
It’s shown by how many thugs claim “I can’t breathe” because they see/hear others saying that and their family sues for millions. Or, “hands up-don’t shoot” pretense…They learn from what the lawyers and the weasels in government have done/are doing so they get off with murder.
gravenimage says
True, Somethistory. As always, apeasement just emboldens thugs.
Goofy says
Burning the Holy Qur’an is the worst crime you can commit against the self righteous Muslims!
The Muslims claim that they hold Isa in high esteem. Their so-called Holy scriptures even include the apocryphal story of Isa, who as a child formed doves of clay and blowing life into them!
In our Holy Bible we don’t even have anything similar when it comes to Jesus acting out his nature of being true God!
Islam can only claim to be a religion apart from being a Deen, a totalitarian social order, claiming to be an Abrahamic religion
There is of course nothing Abrahamic about Islam. There is no genealogy connecting Ishmael with the messenger of Allah. If you claim that there is you make Muhammad a liar. He himself said that his parents were pagan and were enjoying themselves for eternity in hell!
manzoor alam says
It is so visible hate of muslim community for western religion and civilization yet nobody is not doing anything. Muslims cannot live with anybody peacefully. They are trouble today they will be trouble tomorrow and they will be trouble forever. Just see Europe
Gourdhead says
Get these filthy animals out of our country.

In Istanbul, 2 decades ago, I was struck by all the larger than life size marble statues put up by Romans. Especially that each and every one of them had been decapitated and their sex organs hammered off.

NYC: Muslim taxi driver caught on video beheading Jesus statue and spitting on it
…………………………………….
Just appalling–and, as noted, this is *far worse* than just vandalism. What Infidel would be safe riding with this taxi driver? Will the company fire him? Will he be legally prosecuted, then deported if possible? Sadly, I will not be holding my breath…
