Someone should slap these parents a few times

For saddling them with these stupid names.

Good names for a trio of toddlers? Heath and Deborah Campbell think so. The Holland Township couple has picked those names and the oldest child, Adolf Hitler Campbell, turns 3 today.

 

This has given rise to a problem, because the ShopRite supermarket in Greenwich Township has refused to make a cake for young Adolf's birthday.

 

"We believe the request ... to inscribe a birthday wish to Adolf Hitler is inappropriate," said Karen Meleta, a ShopRite spokeswoman.

The Campbells turned down the market's offer to make a cake with enough room for them to write their own inscription and can't understand what all of the fuss is about.

 

Young Adolf Hitler Campbell will be getting a cake from Wal-Mart this year."ShopRite can't even make a cake for a 3-year-old," said Deborah Campbell, 25, who is Heath's wife of three years and the mother of the children. "That's sad."

Others, such as Anti-Defamation League director Barry Morrison, applauded Shop Rite's decision.

 

"Might as well put a sign around their (the children's) neck that says bigot, racist, hatemonger," said Morrison. "What's the difference?"

What do you think? Was ShopRite correct for refusing to personalize a cake for the Campbells? Feel free to comment below and take the time to vote in our online poll.

UPDATE:In his Steaming Cup of Joe blog, Express-Times editor Joseph P. Owens replies to some of the reaction to the Campbell family story.

I'll have to show this to my wife. Maybe she'll change her mind about my idea to name our next kid "Alexei Ramirez Noel."

 

 

I knew a guy named Remy Martin. I also knew a girl named Alize.

 

Stupid names is a mild form of child abuse, you should be allowed to assault your parents later in life for it.

I use to think it was a curse that my parents named me Texsox. But I found acceptance here. :)

Any chance that family is Jewish?

I just love that Shop-Rite wouldn't do that cake...but Walmart did.

 

Reason #424585727494 to hate Walmart.

Are there people named Hitler? Surely Adolf was not the last.

I've wondered this a million times.

I'm pretty sure Hitler had a half-brother or something, if I'm not mistaken he moved out of Germany (maybe to the US, I forget) and changed his name.

they probably didn't want a law suit for discriminating against some crazy ass religion or something.

but there must have been other Hitlers, even before Adolf and not in his immediate family, no?

He changed his name and it was never disclosed what to. That man had 3 sons (Hitler's nephews) and the three vowed never to have children (and have not) so as to discontinue the Hitler line. I think 2 of them are left or something like that. I read it somewhere but can not remember where.

So Adolf and his family were the only Hitlers? Doesn't seem possible.

Quick someone get me a German phone directory....wait he was Austrian, no?

Oh i doubt that...i was just responding to someone who mentioned the actual Hitler line of the famous one.

I would say what I would do to these so called parents, but I'm afraid if I do I might get banned.

I just re read that and what's interesting is that Heath and Deborah have normal names. If they're so hard core for the cause, why don't they legally change their own names to 'Bigot' and 'Racist' and leave their kids alone??

Even the most bizarre names have more than one family with that name. I'd assume there would be Hitlers somewhere that aren't very closely related to him.

OR...the name has such a stigma attached to it that they all changed it. Or this happened:
