The Nini’s Deli incident—mentioned briefly in a post here earlier this month—was a particularly malicious act perpetrated by the jack-booted thought police that is BLM/Antifa. Surprisingly, it didn’t seem to get much coverage on either side.
Apparently the restaurant was started by 2 Cuban immigrant brothers & had been a local favorite for years. The chaos began in the early aftermath of the George Floyd incident, when BLM/Antifa started requesting (requiring) Chicago businesses to release statements in favor of BLM. The Nini’s mgmt. politely replied with a statement to the effect of “All Lives Matter,” supporting the police, & professing their Christian faith. This resulted in the BLM/Antifa mob unleashing their wrath on the restaurant: pressuring all their suppliers/business partners to cut ties with them, getting the brothers’ apparel brand discontinued, & eventually forcing Nini’s out of business. Furthermore, they doxxed the brothers’ home address, leading to harassment forcing them to move out of the area for fear of their safety.
In a few short days, Nini’s went from a locally renowned & successful restaurant to an abandoned/vandalized bldg. with a BLM logo & profane graffiti painted all over it. I believe by the time Bevelyn Beatty & Edmee Chavannes showed up to support the restaurant, they had effectively already shut down (sadly).
I gathered this info from a detailed chronological timeline of social media posts compiled by a blogger, which you can read for yourself:

Anyone who believes any of these details are incorrect/inaccurate, please correct where needed.
“Canceled” in a few short days, with no recourse whatsoever. Absolutely terrifying that this sort of thing would happen in this country.
I would imagine there a thousand stories like this that will never be told, the Media in this Country truly is the Enemy of the People and should be treated accordingly.
In a more normal world, the government would have claimed down hard core on these thugs. What a disgrace.
That is heading in the direction of Chinese Cultural Revolution stuff.
Democrat goons think this is Nazi Germany and different opinions need to be shut down...
The idea of the Chicago Protection Racket has been around for over a century as I understand it.
