His family says they have thrown him out of the business

HIGHLAND PARK, IL — The co-owner of Max’s Deli, Joey Morelli, announced Thursday that his brother Greg will be removed from all participation in the business, pending a legal separation agreement. In a statement, he expressed regret about recent posts “with unauthorized images and messages” made to the social media accounts of the Highland Park Jewish delicatessen, including an “alt-right” Nazi on its high holiday menu.

The morning after at least 58 people were killed and nearly 500 were wounded in Las Vegas, Greg Morelli tweeted that he felt “relief” when he learned it had been “white people shooting white people,” because it “isn’t terror ... it’s community outreach.” Morelli deleted the tweet and apologized on the deli’s Facebook page. That post and others he has made to the page have subsequently been deleted.

“Social media is where common sense goes to die. I’m not into it. I think people who tweet are narcissists at best,” Joey Morelli told Patch. “Greg’s been into social media to a fault, and I believe it can become an addiction and obsession. I don’t know why people do it, and it’s hurtful and hateful.”

Joey said he never wanted any of the attention his brother attracted with his inflammatory posts and regrets the impact it has had on the deli’s longtime employees.

“These staff members are my family, I love their kids. I’m here to run a business. I’m here to get the fourth generation running Max’s.”
