Stuart Seldowitz, 64, admitted “it’s probably me” in the viral videos shared to social media, as he offered a half-hearted apology.
“If I had to do it all over again, I would not have raised the religious aspect,” he told City & State Tuesday night.
“I don’t think I’m an Islamophobic guy,” he added. “I’ve spoken up for equal treatment of Muslims on numerous occasions with numerous different people.”
