The man who went viral last week after confronting another man for taking down posters in New York of the victims of Hamas’ terrorist attack in Israel last month says that what he did should not be celebrated because it should be the norm.

“No, I’m not a superstar,” the man, who was not named, said when interviewed this week at a construction site. “I’m just a regular guy who didn’t like what I saw. And it shouldn’t be celebrated what I did. It should be normal. Everyone should react like that.”

“This shouldn’t be a new story because someone doesn’t like posters of murdered children and kidnapped children being taken down, that should be the norm, not the exception,” he added.

The man went viral after he unloaded on another man last week for tearing down posters of people who were kidnapped by Hamas during their October 7 attack on Israel, during which the terrorists murdered 1,400 people, wounded 5,300 more, and kidnapped approximately 240 people.

The video showed several men confront the man who was tearing down posters when the man who went viral stepped in and took over.

“I’m not f***ing Jewish,” the man said. “He’s not Jewish … it doesn’t f***ing matter. This is f***ing the U.S.A. This is New York City. You don’t have a f***ing right to touch that s***. This is a free country.”

“Don’t rip that down,” he continued as the man argued. “You are doing something, you’re offending us, motherf***er.”

The man claimed that he took the signs down because it was “littering the city.”

The viral man fired back: “Yeah you are, when you throw that on the floor you’re littering the city. In a minute I’m going to litter the f***ing floor with you.”

“So move the f*** on,” he continued. “You have proof they are not kidnapped? No, so shut the f*** up.”

“I’m dying to put you in the f***ing hospital,” he concluded.
