Hitler quote was recently found in a billboard featuring images of children which was posted by a youth church group in Alabama. The controversial signboard was removed on Tuesday through the request made by the same children's group who paid for the billboard ad.
The Group also known as Life Savers Ministries from Auburn, Alabama, was responsible for the billboard post that contains Adolf Hitler's quote saying "He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future." The billboard which was located close to a popular shopping area was requested to be take down by the youth group after it got a lot of immediate disapproval from critics and onlookers.
The billboard which shows the Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, quote was known to have been offensive to some onlookers who criticize the ad. It also features a quote from the Bible that read, "Train up a child in the way he should go, even when he is old he will not depart from it," together with the quote from one of the most horrible personalities in history.
The youth group, Life Savers Ministries, was founded in 1996 and is known to have been doing works for children in connection with local housing projects. The ministries founder James Anderegg also released a statement telling the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer "We are pulling the billboard and certainly never intended to cause confusion." He also added "We are a children's organization and had honorable intentions and nothing less." He also mentioned that they should have used a quote from former U.S, president Herbert hoover who said "Children are our most valuable resource."
Lamar Advertising, the company responsible for renting the ad space to the youth group also took down the signage after it got a lot of negative reaction which caused some uproars. The spokesperson for the advertising company Hal Kilshaw also provided a statement saying "It was put up at a client request and will be taken down at client request."
The Hitler quote featured on a billboard has been known to have been an error from the youth group, and has been taken down to solve the recent criticism it suffered.
