A Minneapolis man who went viral for supporting the anti-police rioters who burned down his restaurant has had his new restaurant robbed.
So what
Liberal tolerance of riots and looting in the name of social justice has backfired.
WHAT HAPPENED
Then: “Let my building burn, Justice needs to be served, put those officers in jail,” Ruhel Islam, a 42-year-old Bangladeshi immigrant, said last May of his restaurant being destroyed by rioters following the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd, per a viral Facebook post by his daughter.
- Islam’s daughter, Hafsa Islam, later wrote a Washington Post op-ed headlined, “My Family’s Restaurant Caught Fire in the Minneapolis Protests. Let It Burn.”
Now: Ruhel Islam said Wednesday his new restaurant, “Curry in a Hurry,” located two miles from the ruins of the first one, was earlier in the week burglarized by thieves who also stole his company van.
- Islam told Fox 9 he will not press charges if the van is returned and offered the thieves food and employment, saying, “Come work with us and solve the problem.”
Same energy
A Circle K owner went viral last September for telling looters “I was protesting with you all” as they destroyed her business.
