"A Rhode Island restaurant came under fire after an employee posted a meme to the company Facebook page comparing the summertime heat wave to the ovens in Nazi concentration camps.
The meme featured a portrait of Holocaust victim Anne Frank with the disgusting caption, 'It’s hotter than an oven out there… And I should know!'
The Atlantic Sports Bar & Restaurant in Tiverton was immediately met with backlash from angry patrons slamming it as racist, anti-Semitic and 'absolutely disgusting.'
The eatery, after having deleted the post, issued an apology saying there was 'no excuse for the sharing of this post' and 'nothing we can do to rectify it.'
Restaurant officials also claimed the establishment 'prides itself on being a tolerant, inclusive and safe space for all people' and that the incident serves as a 'teachable moment for our team.'"
