Right, because Italians are "pure"

Sorry to inform you but it was just a short swim across the Mediterranean to Africa...just saying

No way. As a libertarian, I feel that people should be free to marry whoever they like. And blood is blood, no matter what the circumstances.

With that being said, I will teach my children to take pride in their European heritage. That may seem "crazy" to some of the sheeple out there, but as a free man, I have certain preferences and I do not force my beliefs on others.

Really? Maybe someone should tell all of the Asian women married to White men because I don't think that they got that memo.

You seem to want to force your Stromfrontesque beliefs on your kids...

Where did I mention purity?

There is no "pure" European people. Celts mixed with Franks, Saxons, Angles, etc. My grandfather was Black Irish (Spanish blood via the Armada) and my grandmother was Sicilian (Norman, Viking, Arab, Greek, etc.).

That is why Europeans are the most phenotypically diverse peoples in the world. Red hair, brown hair, black hair, blonde hair. Blue eyes, brown eyes, green eyes, hazel eyes, etc. etc. etc.

I'm assuming you people don't know much about European history, based on your reaction to my "Irish/Italian stock" comment.

I think it is funny how people are accusing other people of mixing because they want to adhere to political correctness. Do you guys even read what you are typing?

Resemble skin tone ad facial features. lol. If its your kid, they are going to resemble one way or another.

I will educate my children, not the "state".

With that being said, they will be free to choose whatever partner they want.

And no, I am not afraid to be proud of my European heritage. The PC walls are caving in and I sense panic.

Your ad hominem attack is a sign of logical weakness. I suggest you take a course in critical reasoning so you can avoid such mistakes in the future.

But Asian-Americans are bucking that trend, increasingly choosing their soul mates from among their own expanding community.
So this means Asian-Americans are racist then.

Your comment regarding diluting your "Irish/Italian" stock reflected your lack of knowledge.
