I know this one old guy who hangs out in Boston with his "REPENT OR BURN IN HELL" posters pasted all over his body. He always shows up in every public gathering, even though nobody really pays attention to him.

It was more common pre 2000 in bigger cities.

It's a late 80's Regan era thing.

I've never seen it either, and I've lived in the US my whole life.

This, it hasn't really been a big thing here for decades. Also, it's best not to get your impressions of a nation from its cartoons.

I've seen them in Korea and in the US. In all cases, it was usually church nuts.

The art on that is actually pretty good. Such a shame it's wasted on such stupidity.
Amerifag here. I saw a man standing on the median area in between the two directions on a highway with a sign just like that about a year ago. I don't even live in that big of a city.
Not placard, but I saw at least one homeless man with an "end is near" cardboard sign in New York. They have gotten rarer after Y2K.

I live in the Midwest. We see it a lot here.
Its surprisingly common. hell even in smaller cities you usually can spot them.

also this, I was talking to a Japanese guy, apparently all that shit in anime, not a thing.
They're usually from some religious group telling people to repent before judgement day. Probably some cult like Scientology or the Jehova's Witnesses or something.
The black Hebrew Israelites are the greatest ruse men of all time

I was doing constriction last year and we were working on this old house in a small town and every morning I would drive by this old man on the corner and he had the sandwich board on with a bible in one hand and a bell in the other yelling about how the end times are coming and that god is disappointed in mankind
>>92939283
Oh yeah, those black guys dressed up as wizards. I love those guys because of how insane they are.
America is a third world country so they have a lot of crazy homeless people who cant afford to get treatment

Are those the ones who accuse white Jews of being Khazars?
>>92938973
What? Nosebleeds don't work like that?!?!
>>92939383
My local ones just stand on the busiest street corner in town yelling about how black people shouldn't race mix.
>>92938973
He lied to you. Life in Japan is exactly as all the animus depict it.

>do all us city in us have a crazy poor man with this type of sign?
Not only that, but we have an entire board full of them right here on this website.

No amount of treatment can fix what they have.
