Florida Man tells kids Santa isn’t real at Cape Coral’s Festival of Lights

NBC2: Real life Grinch? Cape man tells kids Santa isn’t real

Cape Coral’s Festival of Lights was Saturday, and some people said instead of it being a lighthearted night filled with entertainment and visits with Santa Claus, some children were left in tears.

A Cape Coral mom took cell phone of a man with a giant sign, in the middle of the excitement yelling that Santa isn’t real and parents are telling their children lies.

Some people said it’s heartbreaking that the man stood there for hours just to hurt little kids.

  1. I remember when our daughter was 8 and said Santa wasn’t real and was disappointed that we had lied to her hahaha. I turned it and said, no Santa is real and is alive in each and every one of us. We take Toys to the toys for tots program every year, we told our daughter that every toy she drops off in the container means she is being Santa Claus for some poor child whose parent(s) can’t afford to spend money for a new toy at the holiday time.

    She thought about it for a second and that turned her disappointment into a smile. So that’s how it has been explained to all of our kids as they got old enough to figure it out.

    For the asshole in this story, he’s not Grinch. He’s a progressive asshole.

  2. I wish someone would have stood next to him – yelling that HE was a BAD KID and Santa NEVER brought him anything for Christmas and now he is lying to you all because he hates Santa! Ignore Everything He Says because Santa Is Real!

  3. I believe the reason why nobody laid hands on him (even just to hustle him away) is because in these days of cell phone cams and litigating for cash this guy was hoping someone would do just that. It would have been almost an instant payday for him and his lawyer who was likely there as well with cam in hand.

    The guy ought to be identified and if he has a job video of him sent to his company, his boss and anyone else that can be found with connections to him.

  4. My libtarded, universal unitarian ‘church’ attending, pussy hatted cousin raised her child not to believe in Santa Claus and my cousin’s freaky little spawn would run around telling the other kids that Santa wasn’t real.

    What an A-hole.

  5. You’re seriously wondering why a “man” didn’t step forward? Maybe because he would’ve been charged with assault, lost his job and probably his family. That is if the cops didn’t put him in a coma.
    I should clarify “white man” as any other would get off. Sheesh, where have you people been?

  6. Well, we never went with the Santa crap with our two. They always knew it was BS, the easter bunny too. And frankly, it’s all pagan customs repurposed, not Biblical at all. And we did not have them circumcised either. I said we are not Jewish, this is not an old testament covenant and my boys are staying exactly the way God sent them.

  7. @Tony R and @Merry poppet

    Why would you make sad faces over him exercising his rights?

    Would either you have made the same comment if it was a white Christian male, holding a sign and proclaiming that transsexuals aren’t real women?

    Thought not.
