>The father of the deceased, Hy Greenbaum, has offered a $10,000 reward to any tipster who can help solve his son’s homicide.
My heart goes out to parents who may disagree with their children, but can't help but love them.

> A key subject of the book Spam Kings by Brian McWilliams, Hawke was a Jewish-born American who’d legally changed his name from Andrew Britt Greenbaum.
so yeah, that's got to be a very messed up psyche, to take on the identity of your enemy.
> Under the pseudonym of "Bo Decker," he began selling Nazi merchandise and offering membership to his internet neo-Nazi group "Knights of Freedom" and later the American Nationalist Party.
People that feel rejected by society lash out at society. The overt spam and Nazism is pretty clearly lashing out.
I guess he lashed out at the wrong folks, because murders are very rare in Squamish. It looks like he was hiding from someone and they found him.
Personally, I would have hidden further from a metro area. Vancouver is very close.
Hitler had his minions try to clear that up to dispel the rumours, but nobody could find the real father. They concluded of course that he was a pure Aryan.

Take the USSR for example. Religion was banned for 3 generations so it played absolutely no part in determining who was considered Jewish or not.
Not since 1983 in reform Judaism.
Would a Nazi consider someone "not Jewish" because they're not observant or religious?
Of course not, don't be absurd.
Would a Nazi consider someone "not Jewish" because the Jewish blood was only on the father's side?
Of course not, don't be absurd.
Rabbis might disagree, but to me that just underscores that race does not have an objective basis. Race is defined by racists.
Adolf's father, Alois Hitler [0] was born illegitimately and his parentage was never established, meaning that Adolph couldn't establish his own "aryan" descent. Alois Hitler was born as Alois Schicklgruber, but he requested to be legitimized in the name of his stepfather Hiedler, which for some reason was registered as Hitler. In the 1930's, Hitler had his cronies dive into his genealogy and Declare that there was no Jewish ancestry in his family. The rumour went though that Alois' mother (Adolph's grandmother) was working as a servant / cook for a Jewish family, and that the father may have been one of the family members. That's a lot of speculation though.
Adolf's mother, Klara Hitler [1] (nèe Pölzl), was Alois' first cousin once removed (yikes); not sure about any Jewish heritage there.
TL;DR we can't be sure because his paternal grandfather is unknown, but there's rumours abound.

Squamish has a lot of mentally and physically healthy people... It makes me uncomfortable because I am not those things.
A lot of people want to freely associate just like anybody else without it being seen as ironic.
How curious.
I am very intelligent."
Anyway, rebelling against parents in the broadest sense of the term is not uncommon at all. Making a hard turn right though, oof.
I don't see anything about a disagreement between father and son.
But I'm disturbed you think it necessary to say a disagreement might affect love. This is not normal. It might happen, but it should not be thought of as ok.
Even if he was violent multiple times against his father and family, which I'm not reading and I don't know why we might think that? I would still think love would be there, depending on the severity. Hurting other family members might destroy that love. But I don't know why we think this might have happened.
