The more stupid of the two parents, is the woman, who allowed herself to be impregnated by this idiot. I thought women had some kind of intuition about these things, guess she didn't. _________________ Life is not meant to be easy, my child; but take courage -- it can be delightful." -George Bernard Shaw

He told me his name was supposed to have been Adolfo but the state of California wouldn't allow his folks to name him that for some reason. He is a very nice guy and works as a cashier at the food court.

I doubt it seriously.I would NEVER let some man talk me into such a cruel name.

Apparently the parents are "not" White Supremists; - they just REALLY like Germany! Their house is "decorated" with swastikas in every room; and btw - the Holocust NEVER happened they believe. Young Adolf has two younger sisters. JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell will be two in February, while an infant named after Heinrich Himmler turns 1 in April. _________________ Wake up and smell the coffee, Mrs. Bueller.

The man's in SEVERE denial, or is stupid enough to think that his "We're not NeoNazis" line is beliveable.

These parents named their child Adolf Hitler Campbell...or whatever the heck their last name is.

This does bring up a question, is the name Adolf used in Germany anymore, or has the first name been tainted with his vitriol?
