Oakland, Calif. -- A liquor store was heavily damaged by an apparent arson fire Monday, just days after it was trashed by well-dressed vandals who told the owners to stop selling to black people, authorities said.

Police had no suspects in the fire, which was reported about 1 a.m. They refused to say whether they believed the blaze at New York Market was connected to vandalism last week at the store and the nearby San Pablo Market and Liquor in West Oakland.

Workers at both stores said that a group of about a dozen men dressed in suits and bow ties stormed into the shops, smashed liquor bottles and knocked over racks of food.

. . . The men, all of whom were black, told the owners to stop selling alcohol to black people, authorities said.

"Minister Tony Muhammad, West Coast leader for the Nation of Islam, has spoken out against allegations the group was connected to the vandalism and condemned the acts. Oakland police said the group, known for wearing suits and bow ties, was not under investigation."

So, I can go trash a store dressed as a UPS driver and the Oakland PD won't even check UPS? Hmmmm.

Hmmmm...would they have burned down the store anyway if the owner put up a "No Blacks Allowed" sign?

This was a MUSLIM attack on a merchant for selling liquor.

Liqour is forbidden under Sharia and strict Islamic law to all Muslims.

Once again, Islam has demonstrated its incompatibility with western society and the media has demonstrated its captivity by political correctness.
