This guy dressed himself up in a fairly detailed SS uniform, and his son as Hitler to go trick-or-treating, and was caught be surprise that people thought it was a bad idea.
Some observations:
1. This man is either lying about "loving history" and being aware of the historical significance of Nazi uniforms, OR lying about being surprised at the controversy dressing as Nazis would draw; both cannot be true.
2. The video report says that the man said he "came up with the idea at the last minute". How do you happen to have all the components for a fairly authentic SS uniform, including medals and insignia, just sitting around your house? There's only two possibilities: you're an actual Nazi fanboy, or you're a collector of WWII memorabilia. Only one of these two people would actually wear the stuff as a costume.
3. The man's assertion that people "screamed obscenities at" his toddler son and threatened to rip the child's costume off, but only had "snide remarks" for the adult who obviously is responsible for dressing the child and was standing right there, is simply not believable - almost comically so.
I strongly suspect this fellow is a Nazi, and drawing controversy and then feigning victimization was likely the entire point of his costume choice.

A picture of Bryant Goldbach of Owensboro and his son was posted online and has been sparking outrage. Bryant Goldbach dressed as a Nazi soldier and his son as Adolf Hitler during Owensboro’s Trail of Treats event. Goldbach says he originally did it for historical purposes but admits he didn’t think through his idea. "Anyone who knows us knows that we love history and often dress the part of historical figures," Goldbach wrote on social media. Goldbach claims he received snide remarks and his son was threatened for wearing the costume at the event Thursday evening. "Tonight grown adults threatened a child over his costume," Goldbach wrote on social media. "Threatened to rip his outfit off of him, screaming obscenities, scaring a small child." Goldbach says he didn't realize it would stir as much controversy as it has and he apologized for his actions. |
