Several cars with New York license plates parked on Palm Beach streets got notices on their windows over the weekend encouraging them to leave if they are woke, as in canceling everything.
“If you are one of those ‘woke’ people — leave Florida. You will be happier elsewhere, as will we,” reads the message, typed in all capital letters. The threatening letters were found on cars parked along Sunrise Avenue, Bradley Place and Seaview Avenue in the ritzy seaside enclave about an hour north of Fort Lauderdale that’s long been a cherished spot for New Yorkers who head south for the winter.
Concerned citizens reported the letters to the Palm Beach Police Department on Sunday, but cops concluded that no crime had been perpetrated after a short investigation.

“As uncivil as it may be and not characteristic of our community, it is not a crime.”

While the notes weren’t illegal, some residents were displeased at the message.
“America was founded on freedom of religion and thought,” a former New Yorker who now lives in Palm Beach told the Palm Beach Daily News, which first reported the notices.
“We have seen that there are many people willing to follow through on such dangerous and threatening messages,” continued the resident, who didn’t share their name due to safety concerns.
“This behavior is another sign that our democracy is in peril.”

United Van Lines’ 45th Annual National Movers Study shows that New York, New Jersey and Connecticut were among the five states with the steepest losses.
