A hateful sign in front of an auto repair shop near Tallahassee was called out by a Democratic political operative and has earned nearly a million views on Twitter.
Veterans get a day, f*gs and child molesters get a month, why, the sign reads. May is National Military Appreciation Month in the U.S., and November is National Veterans and Military Families Month.
The words appeared on a roadside sign in front of Ricks Auto Repair shop in a rural part of Leon County near Tallahassee, the Florida state capital.

Never mind the sign, if you take your car to this place, buyer beware.

I Google Mapped the address and hit street side view, it was the place. It looks like a dump.
