Black Florida woman receives lynching threat from 'Whites 4 Trump' after argument about Parkland

Source: Raw Story

Terri Silar, who is black, said it started earlier this week when several co-workers were discussing gun control and President Trump in the wake of the Parking shooting massacre.

The next day, she found a monkey stuffed animal with a noose around its neck hanging from her office chair.

“You are getting deported back to Africa n****r and that will make America great again,” the note read.

The threat was signed, “Whites 4 Trump.”

heads rolling and people investigated as to who did this. And if they found out who did it? Their ass would have been Fired so quickly that their head(s) would have spun off. Pardon my language.

As they deserve it. Believe me. Most corporations don't condone or accept any of this type of behavior. Most people, the vast majority of us, don't accept this kind of idiotic behavior either.

Disgusting behavior...period. No call for it, ever.

That some deplorable will start a viral tweet or other post that she set this up herself to make Trump voters look bad.



Edit: Ok, I thought I'd just see if i tried googling around and sure enough!

You don't have to give them the hits. Here's the text copied:

Pinocchiho Makes Worst Hate Crime Hoax In History Of Hate Crime Hoaxes, Over 30K Share Post Despite Previous Arrest For Uttering Forge Instrument

Seriously? “Whites for Trump?” That’s the best she could come up with? That’s like saying “Blacks for Obama.” It’s pretty much understood that if you’re a Trump supporter, chances are really good that you’re white. No Trump supporter would ever use the phrase “whites for Trump.” It’s redundant and makes no sense.

Here’s my question, if she saw this when she got to work that morning then why is her laptop computer already opened and turned on, and why does it appear as if she’s already begun working?

Then notice the way the n word is spelt here:

........

Or look at the letter “g” in any of the words. In the note on the monkey the g goes straight down. Yet on the computer it’s over exaggerated and curvy. Almost looks like the person who wrote it intentionally tried to make it look like it was written with their bad hand.

Why did this racist Trump supporter (who of course can’t spell the word “deported”) leave her office in pristine condition? They didn’t feel like stealing anything, or trashing it? Nope, just left a couple over the top, dramatically racist notes and a hanging stuffed animal. Oh yea, she definitely didn’t do this on her own. No way!!

Naturally everyone is believing her, and it’s been shared over 30,000 times!!

But had they done even the most basic amount of research on this woman, they’d see that she has a previous arrest and a mugshot to go with it:

Uttering forged instruments!! In other words, she commits fraud.

Turns out she has a past history of lying for monetary gain:

Uttering a Forged Instrument is one of the most common charges seen in felony courts in Jacksonville, Green Cove, St. Augustine, and Yulee. An “uttering” arrest will typically occur when an individual passes a check for goods or money, and the check does not belong to them. Usually the individual who passes the check is not the one who made it, rather they are promised a portion of the goods/money that is received. The true counterfeiters very rarely attempt to pass the check themselves, and will often prey on the misfortune of others who need money to pass the check for them for a small cut of the proceeds from the check.

So yea, the woman who’s been arrested for trying to cash checks that don’t belong to her is now telling us that she was greeted by one of the most racist and over the top offensive things any human being could be greeted with. She doesn’t explain where this took place, what she did about it, who it could’ve been, or any other information that could help police find out who did this to her. But nevertheless, over 31,000 morons and counting blindly shared it because they WANT it to be true. Because without victimizing themselves, people like Terri Silar wouldn’t know what to do with their day.


.........

Notice the predictable fishing for any kind of negative stain they can find, in this instance a charge that has nothing to do with any of this, but its a tactic that the simple minded will latch onto. A lot of ugly comments to go with it. I'm sure this will be shared around in deplorable circles until it becomes viral as well.

From 1700-2018. This supercharged hate and racism unleashed by the POS posing as potus has at least given the world a truer picture of what has ALWAYS been the LARGE, SWOLLEN racist, sexist underbelly of this culture and general society. This is ameriKKKa.
