New Billboard On Route 422 Causing Controversy [View all]

https://butlerradio.com/new-billboard-on-route-422-causing-controversey/

A new billboard in Summit Township is getting attention for displaying messages that some in the community are calling divisive.

The billboard was put up in the last week at the intersection of Route 422 and Bonniebrook Road.

One message says that the “FBI is corrupt and dangerous. The Gestapo” with a picture of a swastika. Another display says “Stop teaching critical racist theory to our kids.”


The owner of this sign attended the rally on 1/6 but it's not publicly known if he went to the Capitol. Just the fact that he went to DC on 1/6 should tell you everything you need to know about him.
