Ed Grubermann: I've never understood what's "Communist" about "race mixing".

Communist per se? Not necessarily much. But, the Soviets of that era were more than happy to show footage of Bull Connor being a jackass for hours on end. Pretty much, that and a few exposes on urban poverty was "the news from America" on 60s Soviet TV. It made them feel morally superior to America. A little token celebration of the few Russian/Cuban, Russian/Angolan, etc romantic relationships as a counter-example to the US Southerners going batshiat helped sell Soviet-alignment in Cuba, Africa, South America, SE Asia, etc.

I hate this state sometimes. I figure 20 years or so down the road these laws will be ruled unconstitutional and it'll be legal everywhere. Quit trying to legislate your bigotry and hatred under the guise of religion.

Nance said he recruited a friend, who works for the Coalition to Protect All North Carolina Families, to witness his interview with Jodie Brunstetter. He said Brunstetter reluctantly acknowledged that she had used the term "Caucasian" and then repeated the statement previously attributed to her, but substituted the pronoun "we" for "Caucasian. Nance said Brunstetter insisted there was nothing racial about her remarks, but could not explain why she used the term "Caucasian."

Is it 'racism'? I'm guessing 'racism'. Why is that so hard for her? Why the reluctance? C'mon, racists, just own it already. You're going to be racist anyway and we already know you're racist. Why the charade?

Maybe we should just ban gay white people from getting married. If we let all the other races gay marry, they'll stop having heterosexual sex and go full-blown gay. In a generation or two, BAM! No more minorities! It'll be white Nirvana! All of us straight manly-men know that the only thing keeping us all from going homo is our great strength of will and the laws banning gay marriage. It's touch-and-go most days, but we manage to hold our noses, have sex with those nasty vaginas, and soldier on. Remove those blocks for the non-whites, and it's end-game. It's so simple, only a "straight" Republican could come up with it.

bdub77: I'm going in today, early voting, to vote against this mess.

What a crock of sh*t. I mean I seriously get angry thinking this is what they are spending their time doing. Not trying to figure out how to bring jobs to the state or fund innovation. No, instead passing stupid laws that make it even harder for businesses to make a case for coming to their state because it's so regressive and thoughtless?

Seriously WHAT KIND OF F*CKING RETARDS ARE YOU????

You're talking to someone who just lost his 30GB iPod to a dead disk and no longer has music to listen to on the car ride home. And both NPR and my local classical music station are running pledge drives. Every channel is the same 4 songs. And seriously guys is Hotel California the only classic rock song you have?

I heard last week that the jackoff who wrote Arizona's 'papers please' law was caught saying in public that he wrote that law because he was afraid of white people becoming a minority.

This woman makes less sense, but is just as vile.

I'd 'enjoy the silence'...

I do have a cable to plug my iPhone into my car stereo, but my work commute is only 15 minutes or so. I have songs longer than that.

Maybe someone should mention to the lady being married is not a requirement for having kids. Of course then again probably saying that to her would cause her ears to burn and curse at you for being unholy sons of bitaches.

Which could be entertaining in of itself.

Cyberluddite: kid_icarus: Uhm...ok. But how is that suppose to protect white people? And from what, exactly?

I think she was probably just recycling the same arguments they used 35 years ago in trying to ban interracial marriages--as tends to happen on this issue--but forgot to update a couple of pages of the playbook.


Came here to say that.

"I know we always say they're using the same arguments they used to ban interracial marriage, but this is ridiculous."

Nightshade50: Maybe someone should mention to the lady being married is not a requirement for having kids.

... And, conversely, having kids is not a requirement for being married, even among straight people. Actually, that's probably going to be the next totally-job-centric-no-really bill these intellectual Titanics shiat down our throats, isn't it?

Great, now I have to be afraid that gay marriage will not only destroy my own marriage, but also cause me to become black. Is there no end to the horrors this abomination will bring down on mankind?

I'm pretty sure as long as we have iPhones, Starbuck's, mayonnaise, and Tom's shoes; the white race will survive Ellen & Portia moving to Mayberry.

I wish Charlotte, Raleigh and Ashford would prove to be as 'cool' as I believe them to be.

salvador.hardin: This is actually pretty remarkable and important. Has anyone found a better source than a KOS article quoting a journalist quoting a poll worker?

If there is any truth in the article at all, I guarantee GOP spin doctors and damage control operatives will make it crystal clear that Ms Brunstetter was misquoted/lied about/has lots of non-white friends.

It did appear the reporter went to some lengths to try to pin this down, to the point where the woman basically repeated her first remarks, backing down and rewording only slightly.

You gotta hand it to the GOP. They don't talk about racism, they simply do it through legislation. Then when you call them on it, your the one who's bringing up the race card.

Bravo guys.

All of THAT.

It's like they spend half their time pretended to be offended by charges of being bigots and the other half of their time, you know, ACTUALLY BEING BIGOTS.

What's really fun is when they do both things within a single sentence.

Karac: Jackson Herring: Ed Grubermann: I've never understood what's "Communist" about "race mixing".

same thing that is socialist about "obamacare"

Race-mixing led to Obama. Obama led to Obamacare. Obamacare is socialism. Socialism is communism.
Therefore, race-mixing did in fact lead to communism.

/Communism, socialism, race-mixing - they're usually just different words people use to put on signs when they think they're too polite, nice, and Christian to just writing 'Up yours n*****r'



Jesus Farking Christ I'm so confused.

So does Obama have a schedule of this or something?

I want to know what day he is Socialist, what day he is Communist, Fascist, Marxist and so on.

Is he Kenyan for all of these or does that change too? Are there any neutral days? Does Leap Year make a difference?

sadly, I think you may be right.

if this idiocy passes, it will in part be thanks to the rural, bigoted ass-bananas who probably think that protecting marriage for caucasians is a damn good idea.

Summer Glau's Love Slave: The real irony is that many of the people of Greensboro will have to drive past the Civil Rights Museum in order to vote "yes" for this historically craptacular amendment.

sadly, there are some people who directly benefited from the CRA who will vote for it out of religious duty.

If it makes anyone in North Carolina feel any better, Wisconsin did something very similiar a couple of years ago: gay marriage was already illegal, so they also had to make it double illegal by passing a constitutional amendment. 65 percent of the voters voted to make gay marriage super illegal. The facist Milwaukee suburbs and the more conservative rural counties voted yes with Madison and some rural liberal counties voting no. Milwaukee barely voted no, with the black churches coming out strongly against gay marraige. The point is, this nonsense is hardly new, and a purple state came out strongly against gay marriage.

hubiestubert: Then maybe straight white folks should stop having gay babies.

Some fundies have said that if there were a genetic test for determining if a child was going to be born gay, that is the only circumstance in which they would condone abortion.
