MODS: I did not see a racism topic for this thread so i thought it might go here.
So, boys and girls, here I am having concluded a business trip to Little Rock and had included a trip further north in AR to see a good friend.
All well and good and I am just entering the town of Harrison, AR and see this billboard a big as day with a drawn Dad, Mom, and a boy and a girl, all white and in huge letters....White Power Radio. com at the top and at the bottom in slightly smaller font...AltRightTV.com.
I damn near ran off the road! This was only on the 19th of this month! Making a mental note to take a photo on my way back, I found it was too dangerous to pull over there. However, if someone is skilled at google earth, all you need to do is find the junction of US Hwy 65 and AR Hwy 7. It is on the left side about one mile south of that junction.
I tried to do a search and other billboards came up, but not this last one that I saw.
Freedom of speech? Yes. Offensive to me? Yes. Did it make me reach back and and touch the grips of my 1911 .45 Automatic as I drove on by? Yes.
Now, please put away that broad brush. My friend lives close to there and is very "new age", spiritual, and a kind and loving person to everyone.
I also stayed in a motel for those "inquiring minds that want to know".
I do sincerely hope someone gets a pic of this new sign. it is no better than the others, but says they are making a continued effort to widen the divide between the races.
