Letter is fake. Entire letter was written around the N word, not a product of the letter which you would normally find if someone was truly upset.

Also since when do racist say the N word with an A in perfect cursive? Then you misspell the return address of your country club? Lol come on.

Or else!!



This is faker than the Duke Lacrosse scandal.

Doesn't nullify other possibilities.

I don't even really care if it's real or not.

But based on what I've seen, it's hard to objectively examine the evidence and automatically conclude "Raaagghh stupid racists!!!"

Do you even post office, bro? THERE IS NO postmark on that letter. It's a FRAUD.

If you've given this more than a passing thought and think that is actually real, you are beyond stupid, for real. Oh, and that face makes me want to punch it.

That it's so hard for people to believe that it's not only possible but actually likely that this occurred as is just says how far racial discourse has to go

So you're defending a racist and dispelling the idea that it is real because she's a woman?


Nope I don't just assume things are true bc someone says so.

Just like I think you're a troll. But there is a real possibility you are just an idiot. So I withhold judgment.

Good thing he/she used "a" instead of "er" or sht would've gotten real in this piece.

Aside from no postage stamp, this is the #1 thing that is fishy to me.


Do you own a home? Do you get mail? It's been said several times but I'll say it again. I have several pieces of mail that the stamps are not marked and no barcode. Just a letter with what looks like a brand new stamp on it. I could probably peel the stamps off and reuse it but I don't ever mail anything.

So, please stop using that as your detective work.

It has the sorting bar code on the bottom of the envelope. That happens in the post office facilities.

You could be right, but not having a postmark isn't a very big reason for it being fake.

I fail to see where his life was threatened.

"Please get lost"? It's not life threatening for sure if it's referring to him being "lost" due to being so drunk he can't find his hotel room.

Or else......

I didnt even notice the postage.

But no one puts a fricking return address on hate mail, and then misspells it

I doubt it actually originated from the return address written, since I believe that's the address to a country club in Houston.

Well it could be the Sumlin trifecta.

Sumlin gets drunk, writes himself a letter, then forgets he wrote it.

If you guys want to crack the case find another envelope that's been written by his wife, that zip code location is a bit different than standard. If she does it on all of her mail, case closed.
