41 years after the Loving’s union was deemed legal, predjudices keep many from marrying

It's not the scare tactic du jour for this election cycle but gay marriage is still not resolved. Mildred Loving the black woman who with her white husband brought a suit against the state of Virginia that declared interracial marriage legal in 1967 died last Friday. Our parents and grandparents remember this era. This isn't the late 1800s or pre-war. Only a few years ago was it deemed acceptable by law. After 348 years people of different races could marry. There was actual "scientific" evidence that mongrel children of parents of different races were slower and had defects. As we all know this extremely ridiculous, there probably isn't one black american who has 100% black african blood. The main argument was black men marrying white women. They feared that black men would violate pure white women and steal them from their "natural" mates, the white man. The legalization of this type of marriage did not lead to the end of US civilization. Little mixed kids are just as capable as their counterparts. There isn't a higher rate of divorce or violence for mixed race couples (for every OJ there's a Scott Peterson). Life as we know it still exists and we even have a presidential hopeful to show for it.

For all of the arguments against interracial marriage there are only a few against gay marriage. It's not natural, the bible says it's wrong. That's it, no other arguments. Apparently unbeknownst to me if gay people are allowed to be married all other marriages will be null and void. Rights and services to married couples will have no value because a gay person also has that right. Children throughout the nation will think that it's ok to be gay and eventhough they aren't they'll turn gay, just because. This will be another step in pushing forth the gay agenda to take over the world and make it fierce. I say this of course jokingly but people out there really believe this.

While we wish to be offended by damn near everything on earth we should remember people who don't have the right to get married discover you hate your spouse and get a messy divorce.
