Backlash in California: Muslim at mall kiosk tears crucifix from shopper’s neck, shouts “Allah is power”
Whoops, sorry — this isn’t backlash against the poor, innocent Muslims being terrorized and victimized by the thousands after the Fort Hood Nothing-To-Do-With-Islam attack. This is just the familiar Muslim backlash against non-Muslims, which will increasingly be a feature of American life in the coming years. Nothing to see here. Move along.
“Man arrested for ‘anti-Christian’ mall disturbance: Kiosk employee allegedly tore a crucifix from someone’s neck,” by Emily West for the Danville Express, November 10 (thanks to Bob):
Police arrested 22-year-old Abdul Walid Hamid of Hayward on the evening of Wednesday, Nov. 4, after he reportedly tore a crucifix from a person’s neck and scared others at Stoneridge Shopping Center.
Hamid, an employee at a mall kiosk near Starbucks, has been charged with battery, terrorist threats and grand theft.
According to reports, Hamid was yelling “Allah is power” and “Islam is great” while holding a pen in a fist over his head. Witnesses said he shouted anti-Christian comments, said police.
Lt. Mike Elerick of the Pleasanton Police Department said the man was not provoked and didn’t threaten violence, but he committed robbery when he grabbed and broke a crucifix off someone’s neck.
Coworkers told police that Hamid’s actions were out of the ordinary and that he had worked at the kiosk for years.
You mean, he didn’t do this daily? What a relief!
Police also said they weren’t aware of a prior criminal history for the man.
“We had multiple people calling 911,” Elerick said. “One female was crouching down and hiding from him. He definitely scared quite a few people.”…
Through an interpreter, Hamid requested a public defender and was scheduled to appear in court at 9 a.m. Thursday where he is expected to enter a plea.
Through an interpreter? He worked at the mall and didn’t speak English?
