In the video, the two men, Joseph Killian, 33, and Henry Killian II, 35, use multiple expletives as they yell slurs at the man, who filmed the encounter. Court documents identify him as Craig Johnston.
Henry Killian, who points his middle finger at Johnston throughout the interaction, says, You should get in a f---in Jewish oven and die like your ancestors.
At one point, Joseph Killian swats at the camera. Its unclear if he makes direct contact with Johnston.

One has to wonder whether these guys are reflective of their Dad's belief system. It sure would be interesting to learn what 'triggered' this behavior.

(2,334 posts)I was really looking forward to good, authentic Mexican food, but what I experienced, I did Nazi coming at all...
Mein Kampfort zone was first breached when the owner/manager thought it would be Hitlarious to introduce himself, not with the daily specials, but with a poorly executed anti-Semitic joke. Not cool.
The food here was virtually inedible. I found a mouse foot and some kind of feather in my chicken taco. That just isn't Reich.
The customer service AND food are both lacking here, Anne Frankly, I think they should improve their customer service first.

the name Johnston isn't Jewish, its Scottish, so are the asshole bros compounding their stupid here? What am I missing?

(53,921 posts)I just got back from Europe last week. During my trip, I went to Dachau, Auschwitz, and Birkenau. The propaganda posters at those places (as well as the Oskar Schindler museum, which was incredible) reminded me how little has changed in regards to how Jews are viewed. Anti-Semitism has always existed in this country, and seems to ebb and flow like the tide, usually being ignored at all times. With the current administration emboldening all sorts of bigots, it is NO surprise the anti-Semites are enjoying a renaissance, of sorts, which is still going unnoticed by the mainstream and the public at large. I also find it interesting many of the bigots like the ones in the video, who love making remarks about killing Jews, are usually Holocaust deniers of sorts. The irony of it all.
