"Fire Kessler" Billboard Put Up Along 924

Image from Standard Speaker

Just when you thought the controversy was over and we've all moved on and forgotten about the issue of Chief Kessler using Gilberton borough's guns in a Youtube video, the billboard to the left appeared along Route 924 in Gilberton, heading towards Shenandoah.

The billboard was put up Tuesday and will be there for 30 days.

It was paid for by a Washington D.C. Organization called The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence. (www.csgv.org)

Chief Kessler later posted the following picture on his Facebook page while standing in front of the billboard.

What do you think will come out of this? Will Chief Kessler get fired?  Is this billboard opening up old wounds?  Comment below
