A New York City Taxi Driver Says He Has The Right To Wear A Swastika At Work

“I’m a National Socialist – what you guys call a Nazi. I am. I’m a believer of it.”


A 26-year-old taxi driver in New York City has been given a 30-day suspension for operating his vehicle while wearing a swastika armband, but he claims he has every right to wear it.

Gabriel Diaz insists that it is his right "hands down" to wear the Nazi armband while at work, even after the Taxi and Limousine Commission of New York City gave him the suspension.


Diaz added that just because he wears a swastika doesn't mean he's anti-Semitic.


"I don't hate Jews. I'm critical of them, but I don't hate them," Diaz told a CBS 2 reporter. "That doesn't mean that I'm anti-Semitic. That don't make me a hater."


When asked whether he knew that Nazis killed six million Jews, Diaz replied, "I have no comment on that right now."


Diaz's swastika armband was spotted by a number of passersby, who took pictures of it and sent them to the Anti-Defamation League. The Taxi and Limousine Commission then began an investigation.

“I’m a National Socialist – what you guys call a Nazi. I am. I’m a believer of it,” Diaz said. "Who says you have to be white to be a National Socialist? You don’t have to be white, it can be anybody.”
