“Holland Township man names son after Adolf Hitler”
This rocket scientist, (actually, he is unemployed due to inbility to pump gas because of his “emphysema…” why aren’t I surprised?) has named his son after the man whose name is most synonymous with the mass murder of millions.
What a butthole.
An excerpt from the article that about made me cry:
The boy, asked his name, put down a tiny plate and ran behind his father’s leg. He flashed a shy smile but wouldn’t answer. Heath Campbell, 35, the boy’s father, encouraged him.
“Say Adolf,” said Campbell, a Holocaust denier who has three children named for Nazism.
Again, the boy wouldn’t answer.
The poor kid is scared to use his own name. At three.
The man is suing because a local grocery store won’t write “Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler” on his birthday cake. They are upset they were “denied service because of race, ethnicity or religion.”
Hey kids, how do YOU spell irony?
More bits from the article to make you want to throw up:
—The family says they aren’t racist but believese “races shouldn’t mix.”
—The family wanted their kids to have “unique names” but didn’t expect there to be problems, even after they start school.
—The father is a proud Holocaust denier and named all three kids for Nazism—and one is misspelled.
—These two parents and examples of the “Master Race” live on disability payments.
QUESTION: Do you agree with the grocery store’s refusal to frost the kid’s name in the cake, or do you think the first amendment protects this family?
