Parents Heath and Deborah Campbell wanted to get a birthday cake for Adolph Hitler Campbell — their 3-year old son. They were denied by Shop Rite. Wal-Mart was there for them however.
“I think people need to take their heads out of the cloud they’ve been in and start focusing on the future and not on the past,” Heath Campbell said Tuesday in an interview conducted in Easton, on the other side of the Delaware River from where the family lives in Hunterdon County, N.J.
“There’s a new president and he says it’s time for a change; well, then it’s time for a change,” the 35-year-old continued. “They need to accept a name. A name’s a name. The kid isn’t going to grow up and do what (Hitler) did.”
Deborah Campbell, 25, said she phoned in her order last week to the ShopRite. When she told the bakery department she wanted her son’s name spelled out, she was told to talk to a supervisor, who denied the request.
Karen Meleta, a spokeswoman for ShopRite, said the Campbells had similar requests denied at the same store the last two years and said Heath Campbell previously had asked for a swastika to be included in the decoration.
I love how he plays the Obama card.
No word on the Eva Brownies or the Waffles SS.
“They need to accept a name. A name’s a name. The kid isn’t going to grow up and do what (Hitler) did.”
Then why did you name him after the guy who did?
“I think people need to take their heads out of the cloud they’ve been in and start focusing on the future and not on the past…”
Because one of the heinous crimes in human history is just a minor footnote…
Also, an oddly apt video.
Why stop at Adolph? I mean why not name your kid Beelzebub and get it over with?
I bet he changes his name to Lyle Menendez when he grows up.
June Cleaver, everyone in my family said the same thing!
If they shave his head will they find 666. Just asking.
What about naming his younger sibling Heinrich, Reinhard, Hermann..I mean why not the whole friggen cabinet while we’re at it?
He probably eats pickle speers with his sammiches.
Chuck and I went to High School with a Damien. Nice guy.
Der Fuhrer is back! And this time, no more Mr. Niceguy.
And that toy train set is going to run on-time!
we did. true enough. must have been a pain to have that name at that time.
Did you see what his sister’s middle name is?”Aryan Nation”
That doesn’t even flow off the tongue. Lebensraum or anschluss might fit better!
