I’m praying that one of my in-laws sends out a mass mail to the family commenting on this situation. I’m going to reply to all and use every single one of these puns. They’ll think I’m brilliant! ---

> [@Daddypants](#): > > If the kids were removed because of their names, than just about every newborn of celebrity parents should be removed too. And a lot of non-celebrity parents as well. External threats can’t do it either, otherwise you could have jackasses burning a cross on someone’s lawn and watching in satisfaction as their kids are hauled away. There’ll need to have been something really overt going on in that family for this to stand; if it’s on a political/philosophical basis the ACLU will be all over this case. If you took away kids because of stupid hate-filled indoctrination by their parents, we’d have to build thousands of facilities to house them all. ---

I don’t know for sure if the kids were taken. They live very close to me but I am not home right now (I do not know the family or exactly where they live, just the town). I have dealt with DYFS and work often. I predict it went something like this. The news story broke. Multiple people complained to DYFS about then children being abused. Once they receive a complaint DYFS can not ignore it or assume the kids are OK because they look fine on a news report. They are obligated to go see for themselves. Especially due to some famous cases in recent years when children have died after the parents were reported. If the children were removed it was because of what was found at the house, not just because of the names. My educated guess. ---

Really, if you’re going to name your kid after mass-murdering Nazi scum, wouldn’t you at least take the time to look up the correct spelling of the name? It’s [Himmler](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Himmler), you inbred hillbilly dumbasses… I’ve got no idea who Hinnler was, but I really really hope he was a black gay midget Gyspy Jew. Wouldn’t that be a kick in the teeth? 🙂 ---

I will not shed a tear for these parents. My gut feeling is that the kids will be better off away from this pair. ---

I agree with you, but as somebody already said, there are people who’d say the same about gay parents. ---

Maybe a more relevant quote from the Fox story: > [@](#): > > “I’ve dealt with the family for years and as far as the children are concerned, I have never had any reports of any abuse with the children,” [Sgt. John] Harris said. “As far as I know, he’s always been very good with the children.” We don’t know in what capacity the cop has dealt with the family before, but if the Campbells are meth addicts I wouldn’t be surprised at all. It’s already clear they’re morons, particularly the father. ---

This may sound like a strange request but has anyone seen a story where they give the street they live on? It is the next town over but Holland Township is quite large (in area, not population). I don’t want to visit, I would like to know how close they live to me. ---

It is the next town over but Holland Township is quite large (in area, not population). I don’t want to visit, I would like to know how close they live to me. Using the Board of taxation record search it does not appear they own their place. There are two Campbells in Holland though. I’ll PM you the search engine I use. ---
