The Bangladeshi-Indian restaurant, Gandhi Mahal, in Minneapolis' 3rd Precinct was burned to the ground during riots that ravaged the city Thursday night into Friday morning. The restaurant sat in the epicenter of where America's riots began following the death of George Floyd. In fact, 18-year-old Hafsa Islam, the restaurant owner's daughter, saw Floyd being arrested while she was making a Door Dash delivery. She learned later in the day that Floyd had died.
Hafsa was originally upset with the fact that her family's business – and main source of income – was lost until she heard her father say, "Let the buildings burn. Justice needs to be served. Put those officers in jail," the New York Times reported.
It was then that Hafsa says she realized what was most important to her and her family.
“It helped me realize what we were there for,” she told BuzzFeed News. “It has gotten to a point where this is the only way that we can get justice, and we can change the system.”

You aren't the only one. I feel your discomfiture. For better or for worse that's what it has been called for centuries. In my experience (I'm old, old school) it has always been in a humorous sense rather than a derogatory stab...almost a term of endearment. I apologize if I offended...not meant that way.
Why do people call arson "Jewish lightning"
