I'm just curious. Where do we draw the lines at what kind of marriage is acceptable and not acceptable according to the government? Why shouldn't government ban interracial marriage? It's not natural (not natural in the sense that it's not very common).
Should there be votes on whether to ban interracial marriage?
An article snippet in 2009:
(AP) NEW ORLEANS A Louisiana justice of the peace said he refused to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple out of concern for any children the couple might have. Keith Bardwell, justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish, says it is his experience that most interracial marriages do not last long. "I'm not a racist. I just don't believe in mixing the races that way," Bardwell told the Associated Press on Thursday. "I have piles and piles of black friends. They come to my home, I marry them, they use my bathroom. I treat them just like everyone else."
So, if gay marriage is banned for not being natural. Shouldn't interracial marriage be banned for not being natural (in the sense that it's not common and such)?
How would ya'll feel if interracial marriage was banned?
If interracial marriage was banned, I would be thoroughly angry. Who's business is it which race your spouse is?
It's interesting how people now are outraged by the idea that it could have been illegal.
And in 30 years people will say that about gay marriage. Like I said in my previous post, it is a work in progress regardless the level of opposition. I dont have to approve of gay marriage to accept the fact that it will be commonplace soon enough. Time changes everything.
And btw, two people regardless of race can mate and reproduce so obviously it is 'natural'. Not that I am against gay marriage either, but the whole premise of the OP is so stupid.
There is nothing “unnatural” about my mother or her siblings, and there is nothing “unnatural” about my son. They are all the result of interracial marriages. Why don’t we ban gay bigots instead?
It is truely insulting that gays continue to use blacks for their agenda. Skin color is not a sexual behavior.
