Let's hope the kids weren't in the car Thursday morning heading into uptown Charlotte.  A very naughty, some might say obscene, electronic message was up and visible to everyone there at the Stonewall Street exit.

The two words on the electronic board were reportedly: "F --- You".  Not nice at all!! and it was quickly removed.  The Charlotte Department of Transportation was reportedly contacted according to channel 9.

Someone somewhere in charge of that sign was not too happy but luckily it was caught quickly.  My five year old son once asked me, what made a bad word a BAD word. " Isn't it just a word Momma", he would ask innocently.  Good question  but the fact remains the word displayed was for sure a bad one.  And everybody knows it.
