Re: Interracial marriage should be illegal, say 46% of Mississippi Republicans in new
Are we in such a slow news cycle, that we are now actually paying attention to what Mississippi has to say? MISSISSIPPI!?!?!? Seriously?
Furthermore, what they really mean is that they are against black men marrying white women! The way it has been in the south, even back in the days of slavery, has been that it is perfectly fine for white men to fuck black women (even "forcibly" back in the days of slavery), so long as you never acknowledge it and/or publicize it! Look at Strom Thrumond....Hell he was Mr. Segregation, and he even fathered a black child (to the daughter of one of his family's servants....can you spell "FORCED"?)....how did he "get away with it"? He never publicly acknowledged it! It was a loosely guarded secret in South Carolina, but since he didn't "advertise" it, he got a pass. Had he advertised it and or publicly acknowledged it...his political career would have been over.
Bottom line, just like the rest of the world, Mississippi and the rest of the southern United States, is full of hypocrites! Also, like I said, what they REALLY have a problem with is black men marrying white women! White men marrying black women, though probably not publicly embraced, would not engender much "anger".
