An interracial Connecticut couple who had a racial slur spray-painted on their garage door has been fined thousands of dollars for refusing to remove or cover it up.
The N-word has remained on the home of Heather Lindsay, who's white, and Lexene Charles, who's black, for about five weeks, despite a city order to paint over it, the Stamford Advocate reports.
City officials issued the couple a citation, which carries a $100 daily fine, and it has now reached $3,600.
Lindsay said their home has been vandalized multiple times and at least three of her neighbors have yelled the N-word at her husband.

Racism in the north? Who would have thought?

This white woman seems to have embraced the victim card based on her decisions.
I bet she did this herself.

I wonder what Lexeme does for a living.

Complete propaganda. No idiot leaves that kind of stuff on their property unless they crave the attention - which they clearly do.
To: BackRoads775
The city overreacted.
No need to fine then for a garage door.
To: Roman_War_Criminal
Plus, it works with the Hillary Clinton narrative and the BLM movement.

"I bet she did this herself."Not a shred of doubt. The sick mind of the liberal is so desperate to find racism that they will create it even when it simply does not exist.
