    No, why would there be laws about names? Name has to come from somewhere, right?

      It’s to stop crackheads from naming their children names that will be detrimental to them throughout their life. Like naming them shitbag or sandals. No one would call their kids names like this you say? There’s a reason they had to invent this law SMH
