The place should of done the cake with the name on it. NOW, the swastika, or anything related to the whole white supremacy or Nazi shtick totally should be up to the store to do.
Yeah, I agree - the store should only refuse to do things associated with the Nazi shtick, and thus should have written ADOLF HITLER on the cake. Wait.

SHEETCAKE thinks these parents have a case of the dumb. However, SHEETCAKE is still pretty sure the name should have gone on the cake. SHEETCAKE is feeling libertarian these days.

The kids belong with their parents. According to the local news the state did not give a reason for taking the kids but said there was no abuse.

This may be me, but I still find it a little sad that the kids were removed from the home. I'm always sad about it, though, because it's not the ideal outcome. Of course, ideally, these kids wouldn't have had such nutters for parents. Poor kids.

yeah it's always sad for the kids, but I think they will be better off without their Scottish-American pretending to be German Nationalist dad.

If the family were actually German, I might might be able to see their point, but this is just stupid.

We had a crazy secretary who named her dog Rob Roy McGregor because he was a good Scottish dog, and the defender of his home like Rob Roy was the defender of his country. What is your dog, I asked: Collie? Scottie? Cairn Terrier? Sheltie? Skye Terrier? Golden Retriever?

No, she answered to each. He's a German Shepherd.

I say make the damn cake for the kid. It's the least that they can do for him considering all the bullying and torture he'll endure in upcoming years.

We don't even know why the kids were taken away--there was no history of abuse, according a Social Services worker.

To think that it was *just* because of the name indicates lazy thinking.
