Yeah, why the respectful “African American” I am not so sure this is real. Not at all.

I never believe stuff like this that makes the news.
Never.
Someone wants trouble and publicity and that someone is getting it.

The writer of the flyer who says Lidenhurst is 84 percent white [...]So, did the other 16% likewise get hate-letters? Why would racists focus on this one family, and ignore the other 16%

Agreed. HOAX!!! And what’s most suspicious, this is probably the deepest-blue area of the country...you ever hear of nonsense like this happening in Utah or Oklahoma? ;)
To: 2ndDivisionVet
I am skeptical too. This sounds a fishy as any recent such hoax. If it were on a college campus, I would be almost sure it was a hoax.

Must be an old stamp if it's a lickable.

If this is Lindenhurst, Long Island we’re talking about - it was 98.1% white in 2010, but the public school population was only 80% white (typical of Long Island, which is rapidly browning because of low white birthrates + white outmigration).
The text of the letter and the way it was produced and delivered makes a hoax very likely. What cinches it is the over-the-top reaction of the county executive. His obvious glee at discovering a “racist” to chase after is the desired effect of the letter writer.

Racism is a fact of life. It’s simply a reflection of the fact that we prefer the company of people who share our values. Even if humans mixed to the point where we were all the same color, we’d divide among other lines (religion, class, etc.) That’s just life.
To: boop
"Persons of color, we are using our white privilege and are here to disenfranchise you. Consider yourself micro-aggressed. Sincerely, Local Hate Group." LOL!

It is called freedom of association, and is a basic human right.
To: marktwain
Increasingly, liberals seem to think that Freedom of Association must be denied whites; we must, must, must be available to others at all times... but they can exclude us at will, and in fact are applauded for it. This, I do not understand. It seems to me to actually promote the notion that whites and whiteness are some sort of potent, glowing light that others alternately bask in, and then hide from when the blinding wonder of our fabulousness becomes too much for them. It's... very weird. Are we sunshine?
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Given the number of fake incidents of this nature over the last 10 years or so, if I were a betting man, I’d have to go with fake.

My bet would be on yet another “feel sorry for me” hoax.

Putting the letter in a mailbox makes it a federal crime.

To: Bob
But they’re calling it a hate crime, which is something different.
