Do you think the state would take the child if the parents named it Bin Laden? Oh of course not because that would upset the po widdle mooslims. This is ridiculous.

There must be more to this story? For the state to take away children because of their names is overreach, IMO.

That child deserves a chance just like the rest of us, and the name "Hitler" just won't give him that chance.
Anyone that would name a child that name is not concerned with raising the child in a healthy way. They are only interested in their own ego and how that child can be used in some public statement.

Child abuse has many forms. This is one of them.

They would have to put a bullet in my head before I let any bastard from the state touch my kids.
They lost custody because they were abusing and neglecting the child. His name had nothing to do with it. Sorry, but naming your kid Hitler doesn' give you immunity from laws.

And I believe they were found not guilty of the charges last I read on this. The guy is a nutjob neo nazi whacko but the state has no right to take his kid at all. What's funny is I saw a vid of this guy a while back and he has all these nazi symbols tattoo's all over him and hangin on the walls and he says oh we're just normal parents. lol

If you take all the kids away from their kook parents the government would have to annex a state or two to house em all.

No, they were found guilty of neglect.

Last year, a New Jersey court ruled that there was sufficient evidence of neglect and abuse to take the kids into care.

There is more to the story as was discussed at some length in the last thread on this topic.

So, names matter?

What about celebrities who name their children strange names? Should they be taken?

What about the names that some African Americans name their children? I once has a black neighbor who named her son "Jihad". Should they be removed?

I would be embarrassed to be related to a person who would name their child hitler, but the state has absolutely no constitutional authority to take children for that reason.
