Amusing little tale in the Times...

Heath and Deborah Campbell were furious when their local baker in New Jersey refused to decorate a birthday cake with the name of their baby boy.

But ShopRite, in Holland Township, ignored the parents’ pleas after concluding that “Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler” was an inappropriate use of icing sugar.

Adolf Hitler Campbell turned 3 this week and celebrated at a party with his younger sisters Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie (sic – apparently in tribute to Heinrich Himmler) and JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell.

His parents insisted that some of the toddler’s best friends were black. Mr Campbell, 35, said that about 12 people attended the birthday party on Sunday, including several children who were of mixed race.

I particularly like the parents reasoning for name their son Adolf Hitler Campbell "no one else in the world would have that name". Their might be a bloody good reason for that don't you think?

That's brilliant.

I particularly like the usual method of defending claims of racism:

'Some of his best friends are black'.....

That makes the article for me. Sounds like it belongs in 'the onion'.
