“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.”
****
I call BULLSH*t. Why would an idiot sneak in the room when they can easily write “the note” on the door or just slip under the door? Just sayin...
Almost all hotels have electronic card entry systems that track the exact times rooms are accessed and by which cards. These “guests” were away for a short, indefinite time period (”breakfast”). If a racist moron left the note, he/she would have to be capable of:
1) accessing the room undetected;
2) being on scene unnoticed at the precise moment the Davis duo decided to go out.
3) abbreviating “You are” as “You’re” rather than Yure, your, etc., the typical usage of illiterates.
Diagnosis: Hoax, almost certainly by the son, who wants to be relevant like daddy.
Speculation: Hotel management knew it was a hoax, and subtly offered to let them walk rather than “pursue the matter”, getting rid of race grifters for the cost of some Room Points, leaving the hotel to rent the room to a paying customer.
Random thought: Odd that the note says “You’re a …” in the singular when there were two men. Almost as if one wrote the note for the other to find.
