Adolf Hitler's visage has been looming over Highway 27 in Dayton for a few months now.

The dictator's face is on a billboard with a quote he made praising Germany for adopting the first-ever registration program for all guns.

On the billboard, Hitler says quote "Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future!"

The trouble is, Hitler apparently never said what the billboard claims he said.

An article written in 2004 for the Fordham Law Review says that after much research, there's not a shred of evidence that Hitler ever said the quote. Instead, it's probably a fraud.

The billboard states it was paid for by Rhea County Constitutional Citizens, but the company that owns the billboard didn't return our calls.
