The white woman always plays the victim
I call BS on the whole thing.....publicity hounds, period....
I bet it’s a hoax.
Racism in the north? Who would have thought?
It appears we are all in agreement, PUBLICITY STUNT!!
In Connecticut huh. Who knew Connecticut had racists.
I wonder what Lexeme does for a living.
The city overreacted.
No need to fine then for a garage door.
Hate crime hoax!
Good - the couple should clean up their own mess.
ENOUGH with HEADLINES with capitalized words so we KNOW we’re supposed to be OUTRAGED.
I am from Stamford and yes.. there are plenty of racists and I hate to say it but this sounds like a case of nimby on the Gold Coast. Don’t want anyone to know that we have anyone who would use the n word in Fairfield County, you know!
I get why they want it up there until the per is caught. Let them take it off. Very sad. And if it is fake... I hope it gets as much attention in the press.
Faux shake down attempt?
Not to change the subject, but based on the picture in the article, that is one ugly ass house.
There’s more cognitive dissonance going on there than that time Bill Clinton said he was Southern Baptist.

Bogus , Bogus, Bogus. This crap always turns out to be BS. The problem is, that never gets reported. The only story is the initial lie, the truth never is told and the lie lingers as fact. I hope these fakes are prosecuted to the Nth degree. The town obviously thinks it is BS with the fine imposed
I am asking for help from knowledgeable FReepers to see if the "Heather Lindsay" who is the subject of this story is the same "Heather Lindsay" who is the plaintiff in this recent court case.
I do not know if this the case and at this point I make no claim nor do I infer any association.
I simply think it would be interesting to find out if they are the same person.
You can find the court case to which I refer here:

Calling on the best researchers on the net - Inquiring minds want to know!
Just change the “i” to an “a.” Problem solved!
Maybe she cannot
pay mortgage and this is a way to screw the banks. There is no way someone would let nuisance fines go up like this. Sounds like overmortgaged rip off North East property
