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, Youre 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.

Still waiting for one of these incidents to be real. They based a when movement and legislation on fake events, fake hate crimes.

How are you in fear for your life because of an anonymous note calling you a name?
That alone makes me skeptical.
My mother was a hotel housekeeper. Nobody gets into a guest’s room without an electronic key. Those keys can be checked to see who used it. If it’s a VIP floor you can’t even get off the elevator if your key is not coded for access. I’m guessing this is a hoax because the hotel should already know who was in and out of the room. There are ways of getting back at a mean guest but the guest never has a clue that anything happened. Who would risk their job by leaving a handwritten note?
My dearest Aunt told me this 40 plus years ago: [snip]No, she didn't. There were no DVD's "40 plus years ago". DVD's have only been around for 22 years. (Maybe she said CD's? ... oh wait, they've only been around since 1982).
We have hi-fidelity stereo and good DVD player.
Screw you
An investigation by the hotel has concluded the note was likely left by a previous guest.
