1. Emboldened trumphumpers.

4. But not emboldened enough to sign their names.

2. What the fuck.

3. kick

She needs to challenge all her neighbors and see if any of them has the stones to admit writing it...

That's what my parents did 40 years ago when the white folks created a petition to prevent them from moving in. To this day not one neighbor admitted to signing said petition.

5. I Didn't Get It Until I Read The Word

NAPPY

6. I am sceptical. This reads like a Poe's Law satire. nt

7. I agree

I'm not buying into this either. At one point the letter talks about "neighbors", at other times it reads singular. I'm calling bs.

10. It does seem like satire. It's thoroughly weird.

12. I did too until I went to the link provided. n/t

8. I'd enlarge that letter on a posterboard and set it up on the front lawn.

Sunshine is the best disinfectant. Let everybody in the neighborhood and all passersby see what sickness resides in their midst.

9. I find this rather difficult to believe it tends toward a parody

[OKNancy]

11. OK, I understand about the barking dog (please read the link provided)

So at first I didn't think this was so terrible. I have two dogs who bark at squirrels, cats and strange trucks. As soon as I hear them, I shake the treat bag and they come running in. I try to be thoughtful to my neighbors.

But then when I kept reading.... OMG. What terrible people... if this is real.

Editing my post... go to the link provided. It sounds legit.

13. I'm betting this bigot is speaking for themselves, and not the rest of the neighbors

The self-appointed neighborhood spokesperson, and cop.

How can you say these things to another human being? My mom had Alheimers, and my dad had suffered a stroke that left the right side of his body paralyzed. He was also deaf by then (which meant he was always yelling, and the TV was at full blast). People loved them, and would do anything in the world for them until an assisted living facility was no longer a choice. I am sure Ms. Dobard is damn glad she still has her parents.

Doesn't sound like such a, "high class neighborhood," if the author of this letter lives there. Wonder what would happen if Ms. Dobard threw a big neighborhood barbecue? She could tell a lot from who showed up, and who didn't.
