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.
