A 29-year-old Jewish man, who was attacked in a New York City gang assault said Friday that he could not understand why there was so much hate directed at him.
Joseph Borgen told CNN s Don Lemon he doesn t want revenge on the crowd that punched, kicked and pepper-sprayed him while shouting anti-Semitic slurs on Thursday night, but he wondered about the level of hatred. My main takeaway would be to understand where they are coming from because I don t get it, to be honest. Nothing in my life has ever made me want to do that to anybody.
