‘TUCKY – A Kentucky man says he now regrets dressing his son and himself in Nazi costumes during Thursday evening’s trick or treat event. 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.” Many say the costume was in poor taste. Goldbach says he didn’t realize it would stir as much controversy as it has and he apologized for his actions. “I think it was in bad taste for me to let my child to wear that, probably for me to wear that. It didn’t occur to me. I thought it was a bad decision on my part,” Goldbach said.

2018 in a nutshell, ladies and gentleman. What, people around here can’t appreciate historically accurate costumes for Halloween anymore? For shame. Not everyone has the devotion to living history as Bryant Goldbach to dress up as a Nazi soldier and portray his own son as one of the most evil people of all time. He’s not doing it for himself or attention. He’s doing it in the name of history.
Grow up, America. Show some respect for living, or at the very least, drunk history. Also, the least Little Hitler could’ve done is give his father a higher rank than your average Nazi soldier. Talk about having no respect for your elders.

Obviously you can’t dress up as a Nazi and make your son Hitler on the Trick Or Treatz trail in Kentucky, USA. Or anytime, anywhere. That’s kind of an unwritten rule that’s been carved in the stone of humanity. That would be like a trio of white Massholess donning blackface to represent the C’s Big Three of Garnett, Pierce, and Ray Allen. You just gotta have some common sense. Also, did the father say in that interview he threw together the costume last second? OK. You don’t put together entire Nazi uniforms, one adult and one child sized, equipped with the Iron Cross and all in the spur of the moment. A sheet with holes cut out or dressing your kid up as the states of Florida or Idaho? Sure. Full on Nazi garbs? Not so much.

At least Bryan was initially sympathetic for his actions on social media. Oh wait, he was not. In fact, he was the exact opposite of sympathetic.

I’m not up brushed up on my National Socialism etiquette, but it’s safe to assume that if you’re dressed up in a Nazi uniform for your Facebook Profile pic, then it’s safe to assume you’re just a Nazi. Here’s hoping he’s still hasppy about that candy haul.
