I have a thought. Imagine if dems wrote a law in an attempt to eliminate much racism, that declared


that Americans can only marry outside of their race. Caucasians have to marry Asians, or Blacks or Browns and vice-versa.

I can clearly hear what the Cons would say "You can't tell us who we can and cannot marry!"

Oh really? So okay, you Cons agree then that my gay stepson can marry whoever he wants including his male partner, right?



No one wants a homogenized society but the hate derived from all the stupid friggin' fear has to stop.

to marry who they want - but they really don't want the same freedom for others.

That is all I'm trying to say.

Legal marrying only outside of our "race" is never going to happen.
