Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Mildred Loving, a black woman whose challenge to Virginia's ban on interracial marriage led to a landmark Supreme Court ruling striking down such laws nationwide, has died, her daughter said Monday. Loving and her white husband, Richard, changed history in 1967 when the U.S. Supreme Court upheld their right to marry.

Pretty sad that it took until 1967 to allow biracial couples to legally marry. Good for her and her husband!

And RIP.

Sad but true and what is even sadder that in today's society there are still plenty of people who still react as if they are still living in that era when it comes to interracial marriages of any form...

Of course the rightists thinks that all discrimination is a thing of the past and we can just forget about any civil rights legislation since there are no more bigots hiring people or deciding their futures. maybe they should consider this part of the 1967 USSC decision:

"There can be no doubt that restricting the freedom to marry solely because of racial classifications violates the central meaning of the equal protection clause," the court ruled in a unanimous decision."

And this statement by Mildred Loving:

"We loved each other and got married," she told The Washington Evening Star in 1965, when the case was pending. "We are not marrying the state. The law should allow a person to marry anyone he wants."

However, as stated several times in the past---the government decides who can marry and who can not marry. Religion has nothing to do with marriage laws, and religion does not say who can marry and who can not. The right to perform marriage ceremonies comes from the government--not the church, and not any particular sky fairy.

"The People" had nothing to do with this decision as is the case with most laws.

I like this chick in the video, a lot.
By the amount of comments no one else cares about this issue.

If it was 1967 the "DR Right" would be screaming about race-mixing being unnatural.

I believe the male and female personality attract, despite what color, if you move to Africa you will soon find yourself attracted to their women even if you have never liked them before.

That is also why lesbians date other women whom act and look exactly like men,
and that is why gay men only date guys who remind them of women.

Most sex changes are men whom change to women and then go out and have lesbian relationship.

The Gay community is lying to themselves and trying to convince themselves they don't like the opposite sex. They come up with derogatory terms all the time about breeders and fish etc... in order to convince themselves they are right.

I consider myself on the right wing, not always right but on the right wing. Didn't you watch my video.

Best comment of the day, how true this is truely.

and that is why gay men only date guys who remind them of women


I, for example, am attracted to men who look like bearded women with nicely muscled, furry forearms...

How unpleasant is that, that such a short time ago interracial couples couldn't marry? All the while we loudly parrot 'land of the free'.

so would the democrats be screaming doofus. See who voted against the civil rights bill, 1st that comes to mind is Gore. So stuff your self righteous where the sun dont shine.

"See who voted against the civil rights bill, 1st that comes to mind is Gore."

Which Gore would that be???

What, there weren't inter-racial marriages before this woman?

What, there weren't inter-racial marriages before this woman?

It was illigal in Virginia until 1967.

Personally, I think it was a great mistake to repeal a law forbidding interspieces marriages. Nothing makes me sicker to my stomach than the sight of some negro beast walking arm in arm with a White woman. I find it offensive and revolting.

What about MY RIGHT not to be make sick to my stomach? Why should I and millions of other Whites have to suffer just so a handful of people can satisfy their jungle fever?

I'm looking forward to the day when we as a nation can come to terms on a demoographic America that will make everyone happy. I suggest that we portion off a small piece of America and give it to the bleeding heart liberals and multiracial morons so they can live out their multiracial utopia without destroying the lives of the rest of us normal human beings.

"demoographic(sic)"

ROFL!

I'm right with you there, you piece of shit. We'll take the coasts, and you can have Texas, the south, and most of the middle. Fuckwad.

I'm right with you there, too. What about my right not to have to watch you goose-stepping around with your robe and hood on and a purple buttplug sticking out of your ass?
