I hereby call for a Constitutional BAN on same-race marriages
Any geneticist can tell you its bad for the gene pool for members of the same race to marry. It is akin to inbreeding which is, I might add, already against the law. So why should we allow the sacred institution of marriage to be destroyed by same-race marriages. In the end, same-race marriages will destroy the very fiber of our society. It's time to finally put an end to same-race marriage.

1. Is this legal race or biological race

The latter is generally considered not to exist in a rigourous scientific sense and a legal race definition wouldnt achieve the biological purpose.

3. So a sack racer can marry a three legged racer
and Nascar racers can marry stock car racers. But no sack racer can marry a sack racer or three legged racer marry a three legged racer.

4. Don't forget submarine races.
But I actually agree with the gist of the proposal. I think we would be better off if all humans were sort of cocoa colored, similar physiognomy, and cared piddle about our "heritage", which usually boils down to 'my great-grand-daddy fought your great-grand-dadddy, so I'm gonna fight you'.

Miscegenate Now!

5. My grandpa was against it. He said mixed race kids turned out
smarter and better looking, so he advised my mom not to marry someone of Irish or Scottish descent, and she didn't-- and I proved his theory correct on both counts! ;)

Here's to Must_B_Free's ban!

7. Absolutely
if either of my parents had though about the kiddies and married someone NOT Scottish my siblings and I might have had a chance at a tan!

6. I say ban Republicans like Santorum from speaking in public.
I pray to the Orisha that the Bush daughters will become pregnant with beautiful, little black babies that will grow up to hate their grandfather as they spend his inheritance on bling bling.
