African-American millionaire finds note with racial slur in hotel room
NY Post ^ | July 7, 2018 | John Aidan Byrne

Posted on 07/07/2018 4:35:55 PM PDT by conservative98

An African-American millionaire and his Manhattan consultant son were victims of a July 4th hate crime in their hotel room during a Florida vacation.

A racist creep apparently snuck into Frank and Michael Davis’ room at the upscale Art Ovation Hotel in Sarasota and left a 2-by-5 post-it note reading, “You’re a N—-R.”

After returning to their sixth-floor room from breakfast, the Davises found the sickening message placed on a globe-shaped bedside lamp.

“I was stone cold for 30 to 40 seconds when I read the note,” Michael Davis, 27, a consultant for a financial firm, told The Post.

“My first thought was, what did we do to deserve this? We tipped well, we were beyond nice to all the staff.”

Fearing for their lives, Michael and his parents called the police and the front desk. The Sarasota Police Department responded, but no suspects have been named.

The incident was especially wounding in light of Frank Davis’ lifelong efforts to promote diversity. The business executive has donated $5 million to his alma mater, Bucknell University, for a new building and for minority recruitment.

Statistically, I’d say it to the literal fake hate crimes list.

He fits the stereotype, because he seems to be making money as a “diversity” consultant. Fake victimhood gives him publicity AND justification for hiring his business.

Oh come on now. Surely you realize it’s totally possible this cretin entered the room via the balcony outside to avoid the cameras!

Check the handwriting...check the DNA...check the “milionaire’s” political affiliations and *true* financial status.

We rarely hear about them, and about 99% of them are complete hoaxes.

The Islamics and Black Revolutionaries are 1st class victims always looking for this kind of fake publicity. I hope the bust the person who wrote it - can’t wait to see that he wrote it himself. Hotels have cameras.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Every time one of these “hate crimes” happen with no witnesses to corroborate outside of the “victims”, it’s a hoax.

Every time.

“Seems unlikely. If you’re a wealthy business executive, you’re not going to do something like this.”

I tend to agree (although I recognize that the story may be accurate) for the reason you state, but also I find it hard to believe that a 27 yo millionaire in the financial industry would be ‘stone cold’ for 30 seconds.

If he walked into the room and found a horse’s head in the bed, then I would believe a man like him would be stone cold for that amount of time.

There's his problem right there as people are starting to see the escalation of Diversity is true racism

It been twisted into bashing tool instead of an inclusion tool !

Scream racism diversity so the divisiveness of racism can be used without being impugned

I'd also bet it was an employee if it wasn't they would have destroyed the room to inflict real fear damage but they left a post it note ? because they knew they would have to clean the room afterwards !

Aside from the fact that you shouldn';t ever post about things you know very little to nothing at all about, I doubt that you've ever been to Sarasota/see this hotel.

THERE ARE NO BALCONIES, NONE AT ALL, ON THIS HOTEL'S BUILDING!

New hotels have room door that are always LOCKED, when the door is closed, when you leave the room!

So either it was someone from housekeeping ( which is extremely doubtful! ) or the father or the son ( BOTH !) pulled this HOAX!

ALSO

Diversity: The essential “biology and behavior as culture” reasoning which serves as the foundation for the political theory known as “Inclusion.” Because gender, skin color, sexual preferences, social behavior, and political needs are immutable, genetically determined traits, many kinds of specific behaviors (like homosexual pedophilia and abortion) are thought to be the “culture” of their practitioners. There’s the culture of Homosexuality, Feminist culture, African American culture, etc., a separate culture for each subspecies. Each culture must be “included” as an important member of the Liberal Parliamentary Utopia so their specific needs can be incorporated in The Law. To ignore Diversity is a race crime (see Reparations), because Inclusion requires that no one be rejected or ignored; however, this principle of Diversity does not apply to Republicans, Christians, gun owners, Capitalists, or straight white men. They’re the enemies of Diversity, so no inclusion for them.

Yes, it’s probably a hoax, but unless it is allegedly hotel staff, how does someone sneak in their room, unless they breakdown the door, bringing all kinds of attention to themselves? How does a perfect stranger even know who is staying in a certain room? Does a millionaire even bother staying at a cheap hotel? It doesn’t pass the smell test.

"A racist creep apparently snuck into Frank and Michael Davis’ room . . . "

Not exactly disinterested reporting, particularly since the incident hasn't been investigated and no one knows whether it's real or a hoax.

If someone placed a note with an anti-Christian slur in the hotel room of Franklin Graham, would the reporter say, "An anti-Christian bigot snuck into . . ."? No way.

The story that the father is telling the media is different from the police report. Only the mother and son were present when the manager and the policeman arrived at the room. The mother didn’t want to be the reporter of the incident and refereed them to her son. No mention of the father.

he saw the word n-—er and feared for his life? I though all snowflakes were white.. He could have just quietly checked out and not made a big deal about it. Now everybody knows N___er is a trigger to this guys psyche. I once stomped a guy because he called me a cry baby.. that was in 4th grade. Im over it and have been called a lot worse. Otoh.. a reasonable normal person doesnt panic over a post it note. unless its a ransome note or a bank robbery in progress..
