Adolph Hitler finally in custody

You may recall a few weeks ago that a family was perturbed that they could not buy a birthday cake with their son's name on it. The son's name was Adolph Hitler Campbell... they only requested his first and middle name be on the cake.

I posited at the time that it would only be a matter of time before DYFS (New Jersey's Division of Youth and Family Services) showed up for him.

I was therefore not surprised to hear that on 1/13/09 DYFS went to the Campbell's and took Adolph and his two sisters into custody.

DYFS did not release a statement except they would be put in foster care pending a hearing on 1/15/09. Calls to the local police yielded no other information except the police confirmed that they never responded to, or received, any domestic complaints at the house.

DYFS asked the Sergeant in Holland Twp, NJ to help escort the children to the car as they seized the children indicating that the children's names had nothing to do with the removal from their parents' custody, but the Sergeant was not privy to what the real reasons were.

So now the figurative jackboot government nitwits have put me in a position to defend literal jackboot wearing nitwits who chose to name their children:

Adolph Hitler
JoyceLynn Aryan Nation
Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie

As in the case of the Texas CPS raid on the FLDS compound I once again find myself having to defend the rights of people who I don't agree with because of government abuse of power.

Taking children out of a secure home where they are not threatened solely because their parents are prejudiced a-holes is not doing anyone any good. Not only does it violate the rights of the family, it will leave trauma that may very well assure the kids are as jacked up as the parents.

While they may have had a 50/50 chance of growing up to be normal, the state stepped in to lower the odds.

You don't have to like these people, but you just can't seize their children.
