Yo, Philly in the News
Now What?
Okay, not really, but this is noteworthy nonetheless. We're sure you remember the story last month about the couple who went batshit because a local ShopRite would not customize a birthday cake with their son's name on it, maybe because their son's name was Adolf Hitler Campbell. We think it was pretty clear to all of us that these, umm, individuals were not fit to be parents. Well, the New Jersey Division of Youth & Family Services has agreed, and it's removed young Adolf, along with his sisters JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie, from the Campbell home. (Via New York Daily News, via [squared] Geekologie)
With the knowledge that the Campbell children are safely out of their parents' custody, at least temporarily (pending a hearing, which was postponed from yesterday to an as-yet unknown date), you may now go about the rest of your day with some peace of mind.

If you remember correctly, this couple was upset because their local ShopRite would not write their son's name on a birthday cake.
I disagree with their belief system, but at least these parents saw fit to throw their son a birthday party, which is more than some parents do for their sons and daughters.
So, which is worse: having racist parents care for their own kids, or forcing kids with racist parents to become a burden of the state?
