[Vision2020] Cake for 3-year-old Hitler Namesake Denied

[Paul Rumelhart]

Myself, I'd figure they simply placed the cake where they always do and 
would direct my ire and/or amusement at the asshat that ordered the 
cake.  I don't like the idea of businesses suddenly refusing to do 
business with people because they don't like what opinions they hold, or 
that they think they hold.
