How did the Muslim mayor’s traffic ticket incident illustrate preferential treatment in New York?

Matt Walsh 0:00
Well, it's been a while since we've checked in on New York City, which has now been ruled by a Muslim socialist from Uganda for a little over eight months, by my count. So we're going to begin with footage that was shot just a few days ago by a journalist named Nate Friedman, who's working on a documentary about the Islamic takeover of New York. He's also covered the Islamic domination of several other U.S. cities, particularly Michigan. This footage is footage that illustrates the current state of the largest city in the country, which is no longer American in any meaningful sense. Watch.

I am not going to the mosque. This guy in the black car and he's getting a ticket, but none of these taxis are getting a ticket. You got to be kidding. How's it going, sir? Quick question for you. I noticed you're giving a ticket to this car, right? Yes. Okay. And what about all the taxis that are double parked? They're allowed in the time of Salat. Please say that again to the camera. Go ahead.

How do you know they're Muslim? Why is he not allowed to? How do you know he's not praying? How do you know that that car is not going to pray? How do you know that the guy that drives that car is not going to pray? This is not the question. Only the question is the time of prayer they can park. We are not justified and police justify that. Thank you.

It's legal to double park if you're a Muslim in the eyes of the presumably Muslim traffic cop. But if you're not Muslim, then you get a ticket. And he admits all this on camera multiple times. We now have religious-based law enforcement in the United States right out in the open. Think about all the Fox News segments from 20 years ago about Sharia law arriving in the country and how everyone made fun of the boomers for being paranoid and now realize where we are just 25 years after 9-11. This kind of preferential treatment, this overt discrimination does not simply apply to parking tickets in New York. It applies to the legal system, to welfare, to employment, to university admissions and everything else.

Foreigners have captured New York, and now they're redistributing the spoils amongst themselves. And as you just saw, the government is explicitly rewarding Muslims while punishing everybody else. That's what's happening. Now, you'd think that would be a violation of the First Amendment and the separation of church and state that we hear so much about, but no one seems to care, at least on the left. And as insane as this is, there's actually a very clear explanation for what's happening here. This takeover didn't happen by accident. It was actually set in motion decades ago. It began with indoctrination, which all of us have been subjected to, about the meaning of the words separation of church and state and how they relate, or don't relate, to our Constitution.

Pretty much every American has been told at one point or another, at many points, about the so-called separation of church and state. It's one of those phrases that's drilled into our heads in school. You're told that it's a fundamental tenet of American government, the critical guardrail that prevents us from descending into theocratic fascism. And you're led to believe that since the dawn of this country, students have learned about the separation of church and state, just as students have supposedly always learned about the Trail of Tears, for example. But that's not true at all. Just like the Trail of Tears, the concept of the separation of church and state, as we know it today, was actually an invention of the mid-20th century.
Matt Walsh 3:48
For the vast majority of our country's history, if you mention the separation of church and state to the average American, they'd have no idea what you're talking about. The words appear nowhere in the Constitution, and the phrase conveys the impression that religion should have no impact on government, which most people wouldn't agree with. Of course, people were familiar with the First Amendment and the idea that the federal government should not establish a state religion as opposed to, say, the Church of England.
