Happy Birthday, Hitler

Under the category, "Been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding....," I give you this heart warming birthday story just in time for the holidays.

 

EASTON, Pa. — The father of 3-year-old Adolf Hitler Campbell, denied a birthday cake with the child's full name on it by one New Jersey supermarket, is asking for a little tolerance.

 

Heath Campbell and his wife, Deborah, are upset not only with the decision made by the nearby ShopRite, but also with an outpouring of angry Internet postings in response to a local newspaper article about the cake.

 

Heath Campbell, who is 35, said in an interview Tuesday that people should look forward, not back, and accept change.

 

"They need to accept a name. A name's a name. The kid isn't going to grow up and do what [Hitler] did," he said.

 

After ShopRite refused the request for the cake as inappropriate, the Campbells got a cake decorated at a Wal-Mart in Pennsylvania, Deborah Campbell said.

 

About 12 people attended the birthday party on Sunday, according to Heath Campbell.

 

The Campbells' other two children also have unusual names: JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell turns 2 in a few months and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell will be 1 in April.

 

Heath Campbell said he named his son after Adolf Hitler because he liked the name and because "no one else in the world would have that name."

 

Campbell said his ancestors are German and that he has lived all his life in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, which is across the Delaware River from Easton.

Talk amongst yourselves. Just try to keep it civil. My favorite part is that the good and caring people at Wal-Mart came through in the clutch. Oh, white trash, you never fail to leave me with a head-shaking moment almost every day of my life.

Awww, they're just such an adorable family. Bless their hooded little ignorant hearts.

Do they have any idea when Joseph Stalin Campbell will be born? This time, I'll bring the cake.

I was just reading about that the otherday. I think that's so sick/bizarre.

Don't look at me--I'm not related to these nut jobs.

I read a while back how giving your children a proper name helps them succeed in life. Guess the parents didn't care and set them up for failure and ridicule. They may say a name doesn't matter (I find it hard to believe according what the store they originally went to said), but it takes a certain type of parent that will use their own kids as guinea pigs for their theories.

I feel for those kids when they have to look for jobs and they fill out the applications. Prepare to be passed over for jobs. I'm betting they use a nickname or run to the courthouse to get it changed when they're old enough.

Guess Walmart won't mind though they're just looking for a retail gig.

We talked about it in Psych class. My teacher was wondering if his parents had anything wrong with his parent's past. One of the classmates was like "What do you expect? It's Walmart!". He (the classmate) does work at a Walmart so I got a good laugh about it,

My co-workers and I were just reading this a few days ago. I mean, seriously, you want your kid to be hated that much? I'm wondering, if that kid survives the upbringing and hopefully doesn't agree with them, if he'll have his name legally changed.

My condolences to the children. Kids with normal names get teased enough, this is just a base for a tortuous 18 years of life.

Man, and I thought Frank Zappa gave his kids weird names.

Well if he is lucky his parents might move a little bit south in a white neighborhood where he might be welcome.

I think the parents are slightly antisemitic as there are plenty of other unique names they could have gone with. Their three children all have names relating Nazism, and I don't think there is a good reason/excuse for it. The parents can say any excuse they want, and I'm not buying it. The kids are going to be hated in school, and if I were them, I'd change my name as soon as I could.

What the heck were they thinking!!!!

Yeah, no one else would have the same name....but then again who would want it!!!!

What a jerk to do that to his kids. When I read, "The kid isn't going to grow up and do what [Hitler] did," I knew right away that he didn't care about his son.

I would never refer to my son as, "The Kid". Give me a break. He used all three of his children as tools.

What a sad example of a father and a mother.

The Campbells' other two children also have unusual names: JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell turns 2 in a few months and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell will be 1 in April.

If #4 is female, I say they'll name her Eva Braun.

^I already have a bet to see if there is a #4, it's name will either be Eva Braun Lenin Campbell or Joesph Stalin Marx Campbell.

Wierd, sad, freaky and just plain....wtf.

All rolled into one big happy holiday newsball!

I just read the article and sighed. I feel sorry for the children. To the parents, I'm sorry, but no excuse of yours works for me. It's just too much to ask of a child as they're growing up and dealing with 'stuff' along the way - THIS, in addition to...???

Not needed, really.

There are so many WTF thoughts running through my head right now about the parents.

I hope they're not Jewish.

^ I just spit water all over my keyboard in regards to that comment.

As for the article, all three of those kids are gonna get hell for those names. I feel really bad for them.

---Brent

^ As If they have not already.

I want to know the doctors' expressions when they heard the baby was going to be named Adolf Hitler Campbell.

I hope they're not Jewish.

I was talking to my friend about this the other day, and he said the exact same thing.

I'm sorry, but naming your kid after one of the most evil men to ever walk the earth is profoundly wrong on so many levels. There is no good reason for doing so.

Poor choice in names and Tatum, you is on fiyah!

Do they have any idea when Joseph Stalin Campbell will be born? This time, I'll bring the cake.

I hope they're not Jewish.

What are the chances this is the family cat

MEOW

Merry Christmas!

What a couple...
