Nanny State Alert !! "Swedish Law Prevents Parents Naming Their Child After Michael Jackson"

You wanna live in a place that tells you what you can name your own freaking children, even if it is filled with vivaciously beautiful blonde and blue eyed women from border to border? My personal favorites along with brunettes and red heads as well....(lol)

Even if it's Stockholm Sweden I say " "Hell No" to that most premier of the world's Nanny States, especially after reading this news this morning. As if all the free needles for drug addicts, legal weed and all that other crutch like crap wasn't enough, this pretty much seals the deal.

The Swedish family in question doesn't wish to do anything more than name their daughter Michael without the Jackson part of it as a tribute to the late musician, which by the way in this country is a well accepted unisex type name, as I myself happen to know a pretty hot woman named Michael as it goes..

In addition, many around the globe know the Chicago Sun Times employs one of the most famous females in America named Michael, that being columnist Michael Sneed, who's ALL WOMAN the last time I checked, and as a former rival Chicago Tribune employee, I can vouch for her all female beauty.

Now, for the record, I'm no Michael Jackson freak, although I like millions enjoyed most of his music over the years.... but if I and my future wife whoever that is wanna name our child after the late "King Of Strange" We wanna do it, and I don't want some politician telling me us we cant.

And speaking of creeping Nanny State issues: Hear that Obama and friends?

Just imagine if these parents wanted to name the kid Moon Unit or Dweezle?

They'd probably be jailed. (I know, a little extreme, just making a point)

The parents, from Tjörn in western Sweden, want to name their daughter Michael in tribute to the late singer. But the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) says they cannot.

The agency says calling a girl by a boy’s name is wrong. Can Michael be her middle name, then? No, says the agency.

Says the mother:

“It seems ridiculous and we’ve spoken with a friend in the United States who said that Michael is a unisex name.”

Michael might well be a unisex name in America, where in a scurry to be different means surnames are used as first names – Connor, Harrison, Mason, Anorak etc. – but that is not the norm the world over.
