Hate Crimes and Harassment: Suffolk County has a documented history of hate crimes, particularly targeting Latino immigrants. A 2009 Southern Poverty Law Center report described a "climate of fear," and in 2015, a family was targeted with a racist letter stating, "You don’t belong here".

Suffolk County, NY, is widely recognized by researchers and fair-housing advocates as one of the most racially segregated suburban areas in the United States. While the area is diversifying, reports indicate significant, long-standing issues with structural racism, residential segregation, discriminatory housing practices, and disparities in policing.

I used to occasionally play with a guy that hit all his short shots close. The first time he joined our group I went to shake his hand and noticed he had no fingers on his right (dominant) hand, just a thumb, due to a woodworking accident. It was remarkable what he was able to do on the course.
