    I had to drive through the midwest a couple of times. These are everywhere, and not too far from the giant, green JESUS signs.

    Edit: the signs are along I-70 in Kansas and Missouri. I don’t care if you haven’t seen them.

      Where are we considering “the Midwest” here? I ask because I grew up in northern Illinois, which is a much different Midwest from Kansas or Missouri.

      EDIT: I originally typed Kentucky when my brain wanted to type Kansas

        Same in Oregon. Never seen a “don’t rape your children” bilboard or “don’t shake a baby” bilboard. I do however see a lot of bilboards telling me how a 14 day conceived baby (fetus) has eyes, a beating heart, nails, and maybe a job with current labor laws being pushed. It’s wild how you can outright lie about that shit on a bilboard.

      I technically live in southern Illinois near St Louis and I’ve not seen incest sounds only intent ass anti abortion signs. None of which mention when a fetus becomes self aware.

        The signs are just outside of St. Louis.

        Your Illinois signs are urging people not to murder each other. Did you forget about those?

          I actually haven’t but I only leave the city after work. The most I’ve seen is churches blaming the pandemic and the climate on lack of faith. I try hard not to look at billboards die to how frustrating they can be.
