A Dairy Queen in Kewaskum, Wisconsin, has found itself at the center of an online debate after a recent Facebook post brought attention to a sign in its front window. The sign, which has been on display for nearly four years, was created by the restaurant’s owner, Kevin Scheunemann, in response to a customer complaint. Scheunemann wanted to make his values clear to patrons, and the sign has quietly stood ever since—until it caught the eye of a tourist from Oregon.
The tourist posted a photo of the sign on social media, sparking both support and outrage. Some praised the restaurant’s bold stance, while others were concerned about the potential for exclusivity. The post quickly gained traction, but was eventually removed.
What caused the stir? The sign prominently declares the restaurant’s embrace of phrases often deemed “politically incorrect,” such as “Merry Christmas,” “Happy Easter,” and “God Bless America.” It also shows deep respect for veterans, offering them complimentary sundaes as a token of appreciation for their service.
