Yikes. I'm Jewish, non-religious. This guy is absolutely crazy.

Do I personally like Christmas? No. Do I like having it shoved down my throat every time I go to get groceries? No. Do I like it when some people seem to get offended when I tell them I don't celebrate Christmas? No. But to compare it to swatztikas and the Holocaust is ludicrous. (And as a person with grandparents who went through the holocaust, this is deeply offensive- don't cheapen the memory of the holocaust with BS.) Calling Hannukah "Jewish Christmas" is pretty offensive,but a little hat which has it's origins in a Coca-Cola commercial is not.
