Florida Man Yells 'There's No Santa Claus' at Holiday Event, Upsets Children

A mean one indeed.

A real-life Grinch ruined Christmas for dozens of children in Florida.

A man showed up to Cape Coral’s Festival of Lights last week with a message that upset several attendees, according to WBBH.

He held up a sign and repeatedly screamed “there’s no Santa Claus,” upsetting many children who were there.

Cape Coral police were also present, but couldn’t do anything because they say the man was exercising his First Amendment right of Freedom of Speech.

Authorities did say  they could’ve stepped in if the man had used a voice enhancer like a megaphone or started a riot.
