I acquired Palmer's Bar a couple of years ago. I just celebrated my two-year anniversary as owner, but we've been closed since March because of the COVID-19 pandemic. I woke up and had a good cry that morning. The bar is still shut down, it's a very weird time.
Palmer's Bar in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis is owned by Tony Zaccardi. He has had to spray paint"Black Owned Business" onto the boarded up bar during the recent riots in Minneapolis.Palmer's is about a mile and a half, maybe five minutes by car, from the 3rd Police Precinct that burned down and the center of the riots. And we are around three miles away from 38th Street and Chicago Avenue where the George Floyd incident happened.
I don't expect an angry mob to come down the street, but rioters are just hitting places at random now. We're located in a neighborhood called Cedar-Riverside, it's an old hippie neighborhood, but now it's got a strong Muslim community. I actually share a wall with a Mosque—where else in the world is there a bar attached to a Mosque?
It's hard to see and grasp these riots—what are we doing to our city? I cried watching the Five O'Clock news the other day. I've never cried watching the news in my life. Just seeing our Mayor, broken and devastated, it got to me.
So you hope that the Marxist rioters eat you last? It won’t work. MinneapolisRiots
If one doesn’t read the message here, one is really in denial. Hey Trevor, what does this mean?
Hope owner has good insurance!
burning is just an expression of frustration with white rule
Unfortunately burn 🔥 first and care less later 😪
I don’t think it matters if you are selling what they want
berine bros don't care
