WORTHINGTON, Pa. - A message on a billboard in our area is upsetting some people.
“First time I saw it was just complete and utter shock," said Michael Allshouse. He told Channel 11 he almost stopped dead in his tracks when he came across the billboard on Route 422 next to Worthington.
“I don’t see it as thought-provoking. I don’t see it as instigating thoughtful discussion as much as it is provoking and agitating," he said.
The messages dissolve from “whites have rights” to one about Jussie Smollett -- the actor involved in the hoax attack in Chicago.
“I do view it as racist," Allshouse said. "I know, under the Constitution free speech is there and hate speech is guaranteed, too, and protected by the Constitution, (but) just because you have a right to do something doesn’t mean you should do something.”
The owner of the billboard — John Placek — told Channel 11 that he’s not racist and said he’s a proud patriot.
“Racism is misunderstood in America and I want to have the conversation," he said. “We need to get over: I’m black. You’re white. You’re Hispanic. Who cares? I don’t care about that. I do care about how you act and how you stand for my flag, our flag.”

Only a Racist would think this is racist.
In no time at all should one sing, “I want to be free” one will be placed in prison or sent away to be re-educated
What a poorly written, lousy “news” story.
Since they don’t TELL you (except in general terms) what the supposedly offending message is, it makes the article pointless since the reader has no way of judging for themselves if it is or isn’t racist.
Because Whites DON’T have rights in the new world order. Get it? Whites are slated for replacement, and all their money will go to their replacements.
Slow news day at WXPI.
Micheal Althouse is a cuck!
Love the patriot who’s taking a stand!
Nah, only if you let it.
We all need to get more involved including myself, and type less :)
I know it’s hard, believe me.
Stupid old man.
See my tagline.
I want to believe all will be alright but alright may have boarded the last train a decade or so ago. Prayers it didn’t happen but imho no longer is alright alright imho
Agree.
I have long told my children that when dealing with other people that it is less important how they look and more important what they say ... and do.
Typed “only race human race” into an image search and found quotes saying that by people like Rosa Parks, Dan Aykroyd, Albert Einstein, and Elie Wiesel. Then there was a pic of am actor, Cuba Gooding Jr., I think, with the caption “What if I told you everyone is a person of color?”
He’s right. I’m a person of color. The color is white. And, as I was born in the United States of America, that makes me a Native American.
BFD
Allshouse says it’s racist but can’t articulate how. Boo-bait for bubbas...
Go ahead if you are white and insist you are equal to a protected class person. If you are lucky they will agree but with a set of preconditions that sound like a contract.
who gonna fly de plames and such?
so....whites DON’T have rights?
