Interesting!

When we first heard the case of the Campbells of Holland Township, they were trying to have a birthday cake made for their son Adolph Hitler Campbell back in 2009.

The Shoprite there refused the request!

So they went across the river to the Walmart in Pennsylvania.

Poof, headlines…and a visit from DYFS!

The fight the Campbells have been waging has been going on since them, and according to this report:


A Superior Court judge has decided that a self-proclaimed Nazi from Holland Township and his wife cannot take back their four children, three of whom were named in honor of the Nazis, the father said yesterday.

The boy and younger sisters Joycelynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell were quickly put into foster care, and state officials allegedly took a newborn son, Hons Campbell, just hours after his birth in November at Hunterdon Medical Center.

Their father, Heath Campbell, questioned Superior Court Judge Robert Reed’s decision to keep the children in state custody. It had nothing to do with quality of life, he said, and was based purely on the names they chose for the children.

Kristine Brown, spokeswoman for the state Division of Youth and Family Services, said she was unable to comment on the case because of confidentiality laws.

However, Brown said "every call or investigation that DYFS initiates at the end of the day is to determine if the child is at risk or in the midst of child abuse and neglect."

According to Campbell, there were no instances of that.

Campbell, who still lives in Hunterdon County, last saw his children roughly a year ago. He said he is now separated from his wife, Deborah, who lives out of state.

"If I have to give up my Nazism, then so be it. I’ll do it," he said. The children are "more my heart and soul and everything than anything."

Yes, of course, we’d look askance at anyone who’d name their kids Sadaam Hussein Shmegegee or Osama Bin Ladin Capecazzo…however, it is their right!

Poor judgement perhaps, but their right nonetheless.

Also this, consider the fact that kids today know hardly anything about history…let alone what happened yesterday; so do you think it would be abusive to give children names of reviled historical figures.

Besides, they turn 18, they can legally change their names anyway.

I could have changed my proper first name from Erasmo to something like Seamus to stop getting picked on by the dopey kids from Belle Harbor, but by that time I didn’t give a…well, you know what!

So, assuming this all is based on the naming of the kids after heinous Nazi figures:
