I don't even know what to say about this: A New Jersey couple got turned down by their local ShopRite supermarket when they requested a birthday cake for their son—because the kid's name is Adolph Hitler Campbell.
He's one of their three kids; the other two are named JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell. (Admittedly, I'm not up on the white supremacist hero lexicon, but I don't even get that last one. Were they going for Himmler? WTF?)
Anyway, the store offered to make the cake and leave room for the Campbells to insert the name themselves, but they turned them down and then apparently called the media to bat their eyelashes and wonder what all the fuss was about.
I suppose it's too much for which to hope that Child Protective Services sees the story (along with the accompanying photo gallery of the Campbell's Nazified home) and removes those poor kids now while they only need a decade of intensive therapy.
