Man Reportedly Displays ‘Hitler Was Right’ Sign Outside Jewish School in Las Vegas

[Video below.] A disturbing report of an antisemitic demonstration outside a Jewish school in Las Vegas has raised concerns after a man was allegedly seen publicly displaying a sign bearing the words “Hitler was right,” an explicit expression of support for the Nazi dictator responsible for the murder of six million Jews during the Holocaust.

The reported location is particularly troubling because of the possibility that Jewish children, parents and school employees could have encountered the display while entering or leaving the institution. However, it remains unclear whether students were present at the time or whether the individual directly confronted anyone.

The message on the sign is an unmistakable expression of antisemitism, invoking Adolf Hitler and the Nazi genocide of European Jewry. Its reported appearance outside a Jewish school adds to concerns about the intimidation of Jewish communities and the safety of religious institutions.

The incident has now been traced to Friday, October 16, at the intersection of Lake Mead Boulevard and Hills Center Drive in Summerlin, a Las Vegas-area neighborhood containing several Jewish institutions, including Temple Sinai, The Adelson School, the Community Kollel of Greater Summerlin and Bet Yossef.

Local television station 8 News Now reported that a viewer submitted a photograph of the man holding the sign. Subsequent reporting identified the individual as Kenneth Boulet, a social media personality known online as Kenny KO. Reports also described him making Nazi salutes and arguing with a motorist who recorded the demonstration.

Rabbi Ilana Baden of Temple Sinai condemned the display, expressing dismay that the community was once again confronting open praise for Hitler and the Holocaust.

“How sad it is that we have to deal with this, not just as a Jewish community, but as a society as a whole,” Rabbi Baden said.

Las Vegas Mayor Shelley Berkley and Clark County Commission Chair Michael Naft issued a joint statement condemning the incident and warning against allowing antisemitism to become an accepted feature of public life.

“History has taught us what happens when good people remain silent in the face of evil. Seeing someone openly celebrate Hitler on our streets should disturb every one of us, regardless of our faith or background. Antisemitism is not just a threat to the Jewish community. It is a threat to the values that hold our entire community together. We cannot allow hatred to become normalized through our silence. We have a responsibility to stand up, speak out, and make clear that this kind of hate has no place in our society and no place in Las Vegas or Clark County.”

Nevada Senator Jacky Rosen also denounced the incident, writing on social media that glorification of Hitler was unacceptable anywhere in the state or the country.

“I’m deeply horrified by this celebration of Hitler over the weekend,” Rosen wrote. “Any celebration of the architect of the Holocaust and the murder of millions of others has no place in Nevada or this country.”

Stefanie Tuzman, executive director of Jewish Nevada, said the incident presented a familiar dilemma for Jewish communal leaders, who must decide how to respond publicly without giving additional publicity to extremist messages.

According to Tuzman, officers from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department made contact with the individual on Friday. She noted that even deeply offensive speech may be protected by the First Amendment when it does not cross the legal threshold into threats or violence. No arrest or criminal charge was confirmed in the reporting reviewed.

The incident comes amid continuing concerns about antisemitism throughout Nevada. Jolie Brislin, regional director of the Anti-Defamation League, said the organization documented 78 antisemitic incidents in Nevada during 2025, including six assaults, representing a 5.4% increase from the previous year.
