The last time I checked racism and hate wasn't considered a "political" position in our system of government. It's illegal to discriminate against another person based on race in addition to crimes based upon race.
These parents are no better than parents who justify giving illegal drugs to their children or use them to break laws for their own selfish benefit.

"However, the appeals court ruled last year that sufficient evidence of abuse or neglect existed because of domestic violence in the home, and removed the children from their Philipsburg, N.J.home."
Even though Heath Campbell, the parent of the kid, said that there was no evidence of abuse, the court ruled that there was evidence of abuse. They were investigated because of the name, because the mom tried to get a birthday cake and was denied, so they sued the people who wouldn't give them the birthday cake.
Read this from time:
"In August 2010, an appeals court found that there was evidence of domestic violence in the household, which the Campbells have denied (despite a gag order intended to prevent both sides from speaking out to the press). Both parents are unemployed and are said to suffer from unnamed physical and mental disabilities."

They weren't taken away because of their names, they were taken away because the parents are insane and actually abusive.

Then why are not all Nazi hate mongers simply arrested en masse?
You seem to forget, it's not illegal to have an opinion, yet here we are listening to people suggesting the correct course of action is to arrest, reeducate and remove the children from, people who think differently.
If it's not political, what is it? Certainly not social.
These people have a different political belief to you - your view is that it's racist and ignorant. Mine is that it's besides the point, when it comes to removing children for no valid or warrantable reason.
Edit - the drug line is pathetic at best, and .. no it's just pathetic..

How would you prevent people from procreating?
And the answer to my first question? I wouldn't be here if you prevented one f my ancestors from procreating.
We went to war to prevent those same bloody ideals from taking hold.
