Adolf Hitler Campbell Removed From Parents' Home

At least MOST respondents agree this is not abuse. Parents give their kids stupid names all the time (like "Shaquanda" and "Plaxico"), but "Barack" has proven that a stupid or "un-American" name is no impediment to getting a really good job.
Last time I checked this was still America, and parents are allowed to rear their children with whatever prejudices they desire...the Public School System certainly does. It looks to me like the various Child Protective Services across our once great nation are becoming enforcement arms for the "Thhought Police". Let's hope they don't get away with this one.

Children should NOT be saddled with the names of evil people. Let the parents name themselves, not their innocent children. This shows how they are placing burdens on the children right from the start. This is a sign of other problems to come. The children should go to a better home.

Unfortunately being an idiot cannot prevent you from having children. If it was just their names that got them taken away ...serious violation of civil rights. Now those idiots will have reason to sue and make money. Who is the idiot now... the taxpayers that will have to foot the bill for foster care and an inevitable law suit if there are no findings of abuse.

the parents will pay for their name choices someday, but for now, it's not a crime. the kids weren't being neglected or abused. having nazi parents isn't a crime. (yet)

The last time I checked the constitution was still valid or is it? Do we have freedom of speech or not? Whether we agree or disagree a family should be able to name there kids what they want to and not worry about getting there kids taken away. For gods sakes they elected a president named hussein-whats the difference? I thought this was the land of the free? Yah right-

If there was no sign of abuse or neglect on the part of the parents and this child was strictly taken away for his name then why not just court order the parents to change it? He is still young enough to not even know the difference and before he started formal education where he would be known by that name. His name is terrible and will likely have adverse reactions his whole life but it isnt written in stone and there's still a chance to correct the problem.

It is ironic that a government organization (CPS),that act like Nazis take children out of a neo Nazi home.I find this family`s political views utterly disgusting especially having members of my family killed by the Nazis. But since when do we remove children from a home simply because a government agency finds someone`s world view repellent? Whats next, government agencies remove children from homes because they are raised to believe in the Constitution? Most Americans do not know that in CPS actions to take children out of homes, the Bill Of Rights is totally ignored. No right of trial by jury, in many cases no warrant, reading of rights and the courts are little more than puppets of CPS. And if you resist handing over your kids, the CPS people will instigate the use deadly force if necessary.

Now who is the Nazis here?

What kind of parent names their child these hideous names? Sick, unamerican, mentally disturbed people, therefore who knows what was going on behind closed doors? Evidently child welfare knows something that everyone else does not.

Perhaps there was a threat made against the parents and/or children and authorities wanted them out of immediate danger.

There is more investigation going on with the parents then we know of yet. There is always a reason why children get taken away by the CPS. I believe from what I've read so far in the news, that the parents named their children those names for their own twisted reason, which in our society we would say that was wrong and sick. I believe the CPS did right so far, if the parents are not mentaly right ,the children are safer and will do better in a better inviroment. They will have problems with their names as they get older. How many other children have you hear of being named Marilyn Manson, Jeffery Dalmer and so on.

You have to remember that the parents have gotten alot of publicity and that it is possible that hate crimes will be perpetuated against them because of their racist views. Some people might want to teach them a lesson.

In our country, our bill of rights protects you no matter what you believe (or it is supposed to). In the McCarthy era we saw persecution of communists or those who may have had any association with communists, no matter how peripheral. That era also brought about the insertion of "under god" into our pledge, in direct opposition to the author of the pledge who thought all Americans should be able to pledge allegience to their country regardless of religious belief and the addition of "in god we trust" to our money. FYI Atheists do not attack religious people. In fact most atheists I know would fight to preserve your right to be whatever religion you wish. We do, however, attack the insertion of your particular religious belief, whatever it may be, into public life. I remember all too well the look on the faces of my jewish classmates as Christian doctrine was endorsed by the schools and the harrassment my daughter endured because she would not join the christian athlete's assn. etc. No one should be put into that position in our schools or public life. I always wondered why forcing public prayer is so important to Christians. Is their god unable to hear prayers that are unspoken? Or prayers that are said at home? Is it really reasonable to ask their god to help them do better on a test or win a sporting event? How petty and selfish.

I wonder if your child were attending a school in a district that was predominately Muslim..would you agree that the teachers should lead muslim prayers in your child's class? Should a jewish teacher be required to say the Lord's prayer? You have all the freedom to practice your religion on your own time at your own expense so why do you require others to kow tow to your beliefs?

Although I agree with the rejection of the birthday cake I feel bad that the children were taken.
I guess the state feels that giving children such names is abuse as thier lives will not be pleasant.
wow they wanted attention and now they have it.

Foster homes are not always what they are cranked up to be. Most of the parents involved are good people. However many kids in the foster care system end up getting physically and sexually abused. How ignorant that the NJ CPS take children from a apparently stable home even though their neo Nazi views are sickening to say the least. Those kids will end up worse off in the system than they are at home.

Well I surly DO NOT AGREE with the names is dispicable for those poor children but the state cant dictate what we name out children? The gonvernment doesnt have control over that nor should they! Its really sad if its proven those kids are cared for and not neglected and they were simply taken away bc there parnets named them stupid names im sure just for attention or bc they were rased by white trash! Like CPS are any better at taking care of kids............. Look how many die every year in foster homes approved by the state. Maybe you should worry about those kids insead of kids that have a home and seem to be cared for?

Where is the ACLU when you need them?

Poor children neither the parents or the State seem to care about them. To bring hatred towards one's children by a name choice is totally selfish (parents) but to uproot a child and take away their sense of security if there is no physical or mental abuse is criminal. If that is the basis for their removal from the home as this article suggests, then all parents should be worried.

In 1776 it probably wasn't popular to name a kid Geroge. This is a whole lotta fuss about nothing. Is the first ammendment suspended now?
