The seemingly pro Proud Boys Billboard that had been placed about a 1,000 feet from the entrance of Central Community High School outside Breese has been taken down.
A representative from Lamar Advertising’s Collinsville office said the sign was taken down around noon on Tuesday. The company declined further comment.
The Proud Boys are a far-right extremist group who were tied to the Jan 6th 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Due to the community outcry the billboard was only up for a few days.
