A CrownHeights.info reader observed a nasty antisemitic slur in the form of a publicly visible Wi-Fi hotspot while searching for an internet connection in the heart of Jewish Crown Heights.
The offending Wi-Fi hotspot, named “FuckingSmellyJews,” was observed near The Marketplace, a kosher supermarket on Kingston Ave.
The reader contacted the 71st Precinct to report it as a possible hate crime, but the police informed him that although it is in poor taste, the slur does not violate any law and is in fact protected by the first amendment.
