Hotel Gets Absolutely Destroyed by Homeless After Libs Turn It Into a Sanctuary During Riots

Add a former Sheraton Hotel to the long list of buildings ruined by the Minneapolis riots.

As the world now knows, the city of Minneapolis sustained millions of dollars in damages after protests over the May 25 death of George Floyd in police custody turned into riots, stoked by radical leftist groups Antifa and Black Lives Matter.

One particular building had managed to avoid getting set on fire: a hotel in close proximity to the riots. Rioters persuaded the hotel’s owner to turn into an ad-hoc shelter for homeless and protesters.

Soon, left-wing writers were waxing eloquent about this new communal utopia. Vice described a place where residents “collectively determined their needs and wants.”

“The hotel-shelter effort was met with great fanfare, aspiring to be a kind of utopian, leaderless sanctuary for people without anywhere else to go,” Max Nesterak wrote in the Minnesota Reformer. “It was completely volunteer-run and organized by multiple, massive Google docs for people to sign up to deliver food, clean rooms or provide security.”

That sort of arrangement does work in religious monasteries and convents where the living space is shared by praying monks or nuns who worship God.

It does not work in a place where the volunteers worship Karl Marx and have the emotional development of preschoolers. Actually, preschoolers would handle it better. After all, 3-year-olds feel shame when they are bad, and they do not do drugs.

Unfortunately, the volunteers running the hotel-shelter allowed the homeless to bring in as many drugs as they wanted and to shoot up there.

The Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal reported that “the situation was apparently growing unwieldy. The volunteers operating the shelter allowed residents to bring in drugs and alcohol, leading to reports of widespread drug use and overdoses.”

It also led to the hotel’s owner evicting the occupants and the volunteers abandoning the effort after the former Sheraton was turned into a scene from a post-apocalyptic dystopian novel.

Nesterak posted video evidence on Twitter on June 11:
