An Interracial Couple Was Denied A Marriage License in Louisiana!!!!!!
Oh Hell to the No!! I feel as though, since Barack's election, close-minded members of Caucasia have felt more threatened than ever, and incidents such as these are coming up left and right--or, maybe because of our new Pres, these incidents are being called out. Either way, Sojo's pissed! Y'all know how much I love me a tall glass of milk (does a body good!), and here is Keith Bardwell, trying to shut down miscegenation, cause he's scared of us making more change-leading baby Baracks! This couple's dream wasn't deferred--it was straight up denied!
I love how this justice of the peace (Justice of the HATE, is more like it)talks about "his experience" with interracial marriages, which shows they don't last long. Well, hm, is it because 50% of ALL marriages end in divorce? I wonder what his views are on marriage licenses for shotgun weddings, or couples in the 18- to 25-year-old range? For some reason, I have a feeling that he has no problem issuing those licenses, as long as they keep it within their race.
Okay, I could go on, but I'll turn it over to you, gentle readers. Thoughts?
What about Iman and David Bowie, Mr. Bardwell??!?!?! They are too fierce to not be meant to be!

That article made me as angry as those pharmacist who refuse to give out emergency contraception. Just do your freaking job, dodgeball.
Maybe, just maybe, all those interracial marriages that fail might be connected to an overwhelming number of unsupportive racists?
Also, who would be friends with this guy? I doubt his bathroom is so very nice that the thought of being given the privelege of using it would make up for the fact that he's a giant dick.
Hell to the no, indeed!
Did I ever tell you that I was OBSESSED with interracial relationships in middle school? Not like being in them (though that too pretty much), but I basically wrote seventeen papers about the topic for various classes.
English class? Interracial relationships. Journalism? Interracial relationships. Hell, I probably could have bullshitted some Science assignment to make it about interracial relationships.
You know that breaks my heart. Though my ex and I experienced so much hate when were were together. Even Spike Lee made a disparaging remark when he saw us shopping in the supermarket. I thought having a Obama as our President would make these types of incidents a thing of the past. What a shame it hasn't.
