Store owners are also claiming that Lightfoot is specifically targeting Arab American and Muslim store owners “for racist reasons,” said Nijem.

Radical Leftists finally eating their own is the logical end point of everything they’re doing.

And this is where the left will come full circle to whom they actually are…racists. They’ll start attacking blacks, gays and other minorities. Don’t go over the cliff even though it’s seems like justification.
