What the heck is wrong with these people?


Did you read the “poor people” story in the media? You know, the one about the parents who tried to get a birthday cake for their three year old and no supermarket would give them one. They wound up having to go to Walmart for a cake. All the local places turned them away like the inn keeper tossing Mary out, forcing her to go to the manger.

The tragedy has been circulating for days. Except that it’s not a tragedy. The dad is a damn freak who should have his kids taken away from him for ruining their lives and the mother and father should be dragged into the street, tied to stakes, and beaten.

This is disgusting.

The father of 3-year-old Adolf Hitler Campbell, denied a birthday cake with the child’s full name on it by one New Jersey supermarket, is asking for a little tolerance. Heath Campbell and his wife, Deborah, are upset not only with the decision made by the Greenwich ShopRite, but with an outpouring of angry Internet postings in response to a local newspaper article over the weekend on their flare-up over frosting.

“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.

What the hell is wrong with these people? In addition to little Adolph Hitler who’ll probably graduate at 11 from killing puppies to killing his parents (a rich irony no less), the couple has two other neo-nazis, “JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell turns 2 in a few months and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell will be 1 in April.”

I have no sympathy for a–holes and morons. I have loads of sympathy for the children, but the parents have no right to complain about the injustice of ShopRite given the injustice they’ve done to their kids.

someone acts on your statement?

“The dad is a damn freak who should have his kids taken away from him for ruining their lives and the mother and father should be dragged into the street, tied to stakes, and beaten.”

Suggesting acts of violence against this family is even more disgusting to me than naming a child after Hitler. Two wrongs don’t make a right. Get over yourself.

That’s what’s wrong with these people. It’s a common condition, frequently resulting in a victimhood mentality and/or actions that any reasonable person would consider amazingly stupid.

You Have To Love The Parents

You have to love the parents. Here they are telling people, upset by this, to look to the future and they named their child Adolph Hitler. Yes, it’s a weird, weird world we live in.

 

Who are we to judge their culture?

What a place this is. It seems like every week, there’s a new report from somewhere in NJ that tops my despair over previous ones.

Meryl Streep once compared Jack Nicholson to New Jersey and she was right on the mark. It is at least as weird as California. No, strike that: it’s weirder than California because it has all of California’s weirdness crunched into a tiny fraction of the space.

I’m not sure I can side with the author on this. Essentially they are stating they embrace politically correct speech. I’m in no way a fan of that. As ignorant as it may be for naming a child Hitler it shouldn’t have been that difficult to get a birthday cake.

So why couldn't they make one themselves? Why

janis (Diary) Wednesday, December 17th at 11:51AM EST (link)

insist that everybody else conform to their brand of stupid? And what bakery or grocery store in their right mind would want to be known as the store that decorated a cake with the name “Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler !” on it?

Seems to me that would be a case of forcing a business to do something that might hurt their bottom line.

 

The birthday cake doesn't NEED the middle name in it

scottbomb (Diary) Wednesday, December 17th at 1:20PM EST (link)

Had it said something like “Happy Birthday Adolf!” the bakery probably wouldn’t have flinched. I believe Adolf is still a fairly common name. Asking the bakery to include the middle name is just asking for trouble.

Look...they have a right to name their kids whatever they want!

AceInTX (Diary) Wednesday, December 17th at 7:45PM EST (link)

and we have the right to call them pathetic inbred pinheads and knuckle dragging morons!

As for the stores not putting the names on the cake?…think about it…someone comes up to you and asks you to decorate a cake wishing Adolf Hitler a Happy Birthday? I can’t imagine not thinking it was a joke in the first place!

Imagine it’s a Jewish person working the counter who lost their Parents or Grandparents in Germany…I think they should have the right to not have to have anything to do with it…or the store has a right to set it’s own standards!

They ought to be able to deny such service to anyone if the service requested is repugnant or contrary to the mission of the store. The parents chose the names of their kids for the shock value — they were looking to evoke reactions. Well, this is an appropriate societal reaction to such jack-assery. If the kids aren’t totally screwed up by 18, look for them to change their names post haste — maybe even their last names.

I heard him interviewd on WPHT Philly last night...

H (Diary) Wednesday, December 17th at 11:36AM EST (link)

IMHO he’s a self obsessed grandiose moron who, from the get-go, had designs on cashing in on multiple discrimination lawsuits when the backlash over his kids’ names hit the media. Mentally, he’s on par with the idiots who go around with a roach in their pocket in anticipation of running a restaurant out of business for a big payday, except in this case there is the streak of sadism directed at his own children.

I’m with the first poster, in the good old days, this cretin would have been hauled out of his own front door by a “concerned neighbor” and had the crap beaten out of him, just on general principles. Ya gotta expect that this particular issue is not the only reason he probably has a whooping coming to him, given his personal philosophy that the world needs to conform to his repugnant, narcissistic goofiness.

Really?

Mike Gray Wednesday, December 17th at 12:49PM EST (link)

Could it really be that he’s simply got a long term plan to make some dough? It seems almost impossible that someone would be so idiotic, but I guess I’ve seen enough in my days to believe it.

I understand your incredulity...

but there are parents out there who have literally poisoned and/or injured their own children to cash in on malpractice suits. This personality disorder/type doesn’t recognize the humanity in anyone – not even their own children – other than themselves.

 
 
 

Two Words

New. Jersey.

This is the kind of thing that could only happen in New Jersey.

Well, no it really isn’t, if New Jersey was somewhere else in the country, it could happen there, too…as long as it was still New Jersey.

So you have this family who thinks that because Barack Obama was elected President on a mandate of change, that means it’s time to forget the Holocaust and start naming kids after Adolf Hitler?

Only, only in New Jersey. I take back the qualification.

I think their choice of name was insipired partially by Obama’s middle name, Hussein. The logic, so far as it goes, is that we shouldn’t identify murderous dictators with agents of hope and change even though they share a name. And that’s where it ends.

They’ve condemned this kid. You’re looking at the new Marilyn Manson.

I hate the idea of the state intervening in these kinds of things, so I am going to ask instead that some of their relatives intervene, have the parents ipso facto declared unfit to be parents, and petition to have the name changed and their custody of the child taken.

In India, they still gouge children's eyes out

kowalski (Diary) Wednesday, December 17th at 1:10PM EST (link)

In India and other countries in the world, people still gouge out children’s eyes so that they can be beggars. Here in America, idiot parents name their children Adolf Hitler.

This proves that stupidity is global.

I believe that while the ShopRite incident occurred in NJ, the family in question resides in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania… at least that’s where last night’s radio interview with the nutball dad originated. The store that ultimately filled the order for the “Happy Birthday Adolph Hitler” cake was a Walmart in PA.

As a PA native living in NJ, I have no regional axe to grind here… except I wish I were from Texas or Wyoming under the circumstances.

That said...if I lived there I'd patronize Shop right to the exclusion of all others

for doing the right thing…and Wal-Mart needs to have a letter campaign raking them over the coals organized against the for filling the order!

ShopRite is a family owned PA/NJ chain… the Zolli family I believe… known widely for their superior baked goods and deli departments. The last thing they need is people boycotting their bakeries because of a “Hitler misunderstanding.”

 
 
 
 

ShopRite has every right to turn them away...

kyoufuu (Diary) Wednesday, December 17th at 2:42PM EST (link)

Mostly because it is in their own best interest to not make that cake. There is no discrimination, because they offered to make a blank cake that the parents could decorate themselves.

But, sad as it may be, parents have the right to teach their children what they choose. Just because we disagree with it doesn’t mean that their children should be taken away and punished. Would we punish an atheist for teaching their children that those who believe in God are foolish and irrational? Would we punish a Christian for teaching their children that nonchristians are sinners?

I’m not arguing for political correctness or cultural relativism. These parents are idiots and likely doing irreparable harm to their children. BUT…there are many parents who are far worse, who are doing real physical harm to their children. Parents who don’t even try to celebrate their children’s birthdays.

When this guy’s 15 minutes of fame are over, he’ll have different issues to deal with.

I don’t advocate taking the kids away and would quibble with Erick on that point. once we allow the government to make a decision like taking kids away from parents who are obvious idiots, they won’t stop till they take our kids for teaching them to be conservative!

That said, a little visit from the local vigilance committee might be in order in this case!

Mental, Emotional Harm far worse

Crowe (Diary) Thursday, December 18th at 9:12AM EST (link)

Physical harm heals. May leave a visible scar, but as one with one or two prominent physical scars, those easily become either badges of honor or occasions for jokes.

Emotional and mental scars are deeper, more personal, don’t heal as nicely (if at all), and give rise to all sorts of other problems.

The real evil of physical abuse is generally not the physical harm, but the emotional harm the child experiences in experiencing harm from a parent — the one whom the child ought to be able to turn to for protection from harm. It shatters the delicate trust structure before it fully develops and establishes the child’s ability to trust people down the road.

These kids are being used as pawns — not loved as children — by their parents and have been doomed to a life of aghast looks, awkward silences, angry reactions, unwanted attention, and attempts to hide their embarrassment over their parents’ malicious idiocy… And all because dad wanted to make a stupid point.

The gift of Free Will was intended to give us the freedom to choose the good… but attendant to that is the ability to choose the not-good, the depraved, the evil. Some people go that direction more frequently and/or more spectacularly than others… These parents did a doozy.

Is another’s front-page worthy material.

Personally, I’m surprised that the places wouldn’t make the cake. Hey, $20 is $20 and most bakery types ain’t paid to judge what some dumbbutt wants put on his cake.

Unless, of course, I thought I’d be the victim of one of those filler stories on the local news station. “We went to Bob’s Bakery and asked him to make a Happy Birthday Hitler cake… AND HE MADE IT!!! IT HAD CHOCOLATE SHAVINGS ON TOP!!!!!!!”

Yeah, I suppose I could understand why one or two bakeries might have turned him down, but all of them?
