I guess it just goes to show that getting attention is more important than conveying information in today's "news" networks.

Thank you for introducing actual  facts rather than reducing the issue to emotional knee jerk reactions, which seems to happen automatically with certain topics .

Yes, arielg, Neo Nazis are not nice people.

I did mention the fact the father was illiterate, known for domestic violence, and already teaching his son to call women bitches and threaten to kill them. By example, he was teaching their daughters to be inferior and think being hit by the man in a relationship was okay. By removing them from this environment, it should be soon enough to break the cycle of abuse. It's a sticky slope to remove children just because you don't like what they've been named, but of course the Neo-Nazi connection played in the media.

Of all of Hitler's henchmman, Himmler looked the most like the people being shipped to the concentration camps. Pity it didn't happen.

Yes, it looks like a case of knee-jerk, incomplete reporting, in order to get a knee-jerk rise, and give the story legs, so to speak.

It apprears the real issue is allegations of abuse and horrible parenting, not the names.

I would look at the names as a 'red flag' or a warning sign that that deeper issues were there.  If someone is going to give their children such a name, that may be within their right, but I'm going to assume something isn't right upstairs with that person.  In this case, it sounds like that's true.  I'm glad the kids are no longer in the home.  I hope that becomes permanent.
