A controversial sign for a local gun store in Cherokee County, North Carolina may soon be replaced, but that won’t be the last of the story involving Cherokee Guns and owner Steven “Doc” Wacholz. As local media have reported, Allison Outdoors Media claims it never approved the billboard’s design before it went up, and have stated the billboard will be coming down, though at last report the billboard remains unchanged.

Other press outlets have reported that Wacholz is ready to sue if the billboard comes down before August 9th, when it was scheduled to be replaced.

A man who answered the phone Aug. 1 at Cherokee Guns, identifying himself only as “Butch,” reiterated that stance.

Butch, who said he was a volunteer at the shop, said representatives of Allison Outdoor Advertising had been in Cherokee Guns the past few days discussing the sign’s removal. But, he said, “The sign’s not coming down.”

Not until Aug. 9, at least, when he said it’s scheduled to be switched out.

He said the new sign will likely feature the text of the First Amendment.
