Islamic Organizations in Tasik Shut Down KFC and McDonald’s Restaurants

Hundreds of people from various Islamic organizations in Tasikmalaya have sealed off all of the Americans fast-food restaurants.

The group thinks the Americans should be held responsible for the filming of the “Innocence of Muslims” which has greatly insulted Muslims.

McD Restaurants Shut Down

Hundreds of people from various Islamic organizations went directly to the fast-food restaurants which are located at HZ Mustafa street in Tasikmalaya city.

In their speeches, the crowds criticized and protested ”Innocence of Muslims” which is deemed insulting to Muslims. After giving those speeches, the crowds sealed off the restaurants immediately.

All Visitors Scramble Out as the Restaurant Closed Down

Afterwards, the crowds proceeded to Pasar Wetan street and once again they forced the closures of various American fast-food restaurants, which were still crowded with visitors at that time. The restaurant’s entrance was taped with a poster displaying blasphemous words against the United States of America.

In addition to closing down and sealing off the restaurants, the crowds also burnt an American flag. The diners who were in the midst of enjoying their meals were so terrified that they immediately scrambled out of the restaurant. The participants promised to come back with larger turnouts if these restaurants were to be re-opened again.

SopPedes:

The demonstrations to retaliate against U.S by targeting McD and KFC restaurants are so baffling.
Do they really think that they can fight back the Americans by going after McD and KFC restaurants ??

Badvriel:

Most likely, they wish to loot and close down the McD restaurants since they’re just hungry!

Anaklelebamb:

These stupid university students will end up working as McD or KFC janitors anyways.
Why would they want to destroy their own future workplace?

Not4given:

You can demonstrate at KFC and McD… as long you don’t wear Levi’s [American clothing brand].

Edomanatap:

Damn it, my stomach hurts after laughing out loud!
This must be caused by America since I just ate KFC. Hahahaha…

Broony:

The people employed in McD and KFC are Indonesians.
Most of them work there as servers so they’re not rich people.
So just imagine if their workplaces are sealed off.
Then how are they supposed to support themselves now? =(

Rsps:

“Closed down by Muslims.”
Well, I never asked them to do it. So what are the differences between us [as Muslims]? =(

Edomanatap:

For FPI [Islamic Defenders Front]: Are you guys crazy? Do you guys think the party responsible for creating that movie was McDonald’s?

Anak.baru.gede:

Well, these are the mindsets of uneducated and jobless people.
They use brawn to demonstrate, instead of using their brain.

junjunjunjun:

These mobs are obviously TERRORISTS..!!
WHY DON’T WE JUST ELIMINATE THEM? THIS IS WHY THE IMAGE OF MUSLIMS = VIOLENCE

KangMINkYUNG:

I’m also a Muslim but I’m so ashamed of the FPI’s actions!

Bukan_hp_nokia:

If it’s way too hot to protest outside, isn’t it better to do it inside the McDonald’s restaurant? That’s what the paid protesters must have thought.

Sununet:

You [FPI] are only daring in this country. If you are truly fearless, why not go to the U.S.A instead? Don’t ruin Indonesia with your despicable actions.

Bossapple:

FPI is so weird… they always destroy things… creating riots that serve no purpose…

What do you think?
