I don't think it is out of line considering the name we are discussing, to assume the parents intent or that they themselves are Nazi's. The
evidence is so overwhelming as to make it almost laughable to suggest that their intentions were anything other than what is being assumed.
See it's nice to assume, and it might even be true, but so far the parents have said that they are not, and we have no definative proof, I agree the
circumstancial evidence is there, but even if they are, you don't have a right to take kids on the premisis of this, unless the laws have changed,
and then many families better go running for the hills, cause they will not stop there.
I still go back to the children and the harm they will suffer. Look at the abuse any child who is even slightly different has to endure. You
can be sure that young Adolf will endure ten times as much and more. They may as well have named him Hit-me-kick-me Make-me-eat-dirt.
So you can't be different now, because society is narrow minded? He will only endure this is society is stupid. Obama was able to over coming sharing
not one, but two names of unliked people, I mean what are the chances of this. On of his name is really close to Osama bin ladin, and then Saddam
Hussain, but people were open minded enough to see past this and vote for him.
You can also assume that the parents are Nazi's based on the evidence available. Even in court I think there would be ample circumstantial
evidence.
We can assume it, but we can not prove it. He has also said that they are not. They might be, but we don't have proof that they are, and even if they
are, you can't take peoples kids on the basis of this. I just read what one guy from the New Black Panther party said about another group of people,
and it wasn't nice, but he should not have his kids taken away for his views or the party he is a part of anymore than these people should, unless
there is serious abuse happening. Yes teaching hate can be abusive, but then in the news today we have Prince Chales and sons getting slack for
calling a friend of his "sooty", refering to the guys skin color.
Prince Charles says he is not racist. Then prince Harry recently refered to middle Eastern person as a Pak* and Rag Heads. Apparently both terms are
racist, and the young prince says he is not a racist. So we would investigate and then pass judgement and the same should be true for these people.
Rights are one thing but equating the right to name your child something that will ruin his future and teaching Nazi values to a right worth
protecting, is carrying it into the silly zone. Arguing for that is just arguing for the sake of arguing and any semblance of common sense has left
the building.
I don't think the child being name Hitler will ruin his future, heck the fame and celebrity might even help him at this stage. Later on I mean. I am
saying that in a democratic society, people have the right to have those views, the same way the guy from the black panther is allowed to have his
view, wither you agree with it or not.
Arguing it is not for the sake of arguing it, it's for the sake of democracy and all that we hold dear. If they can do it to these people, they will
do it to others and that is why it must be challenged and stopped if those are the reasons for taking these kids.
