No, blacks can't marry anyone. They must die out for the preservation of the pure white race.

Asian women are pretty and their skin has an acceptable amount of melanin to not go into the revulsion category. So yes, you can.

See why "It's icky" is a bad argument to base laws around?

These conflicting answers trouble me.

I accept your challenge.
"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."—former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman

I hope the Croats do the right thing, and vote against the ban.

Everyone knows that we spread the infamous "nigga moments" to the pure white race, thus causing them to go into savagery.

Yep. Tyranny by Majority. Benevolent dictatorship just keeps getting better and better in my eyes.

Either way, very disappointed. Hopefully the Croats make the sensible choice.

- 60 years and people would have been saying things along those lines. Yet another reason why the human rights of minorities should not be up to majority vote.

Your nation is like a son. What it does right is your merit, as well as what it does wrong is your fault. When you praise it, be lucid and avoid exaggeration. Praising it too much can make it indolent. On the other hand, when you criticize it, be harsh, but do not ridicule it. Do your best to improve it, not through derision or disdain, but through good examples and dedication.

I can't argue with that logic. I'll go ahead and prepare the eugenics program under the banner "For a clearer tomorrow". We hope to have blacks erradicated upon the next two generations.

"A group of people shouldn't be treated as second class citizens" is totally an immature argument, guys.

Meanwhile, "g4yz r icky!" is the epitome of maturity.

Just like everyone else that opposes gay marriage, the real reason why you're against gay marriage is "ew".

I'd say that's pretty immature.

Slovenia is Central Europe, as far as I know.

And you aren't convinced of your views? I mean, really, everyone fucking is. I don't see how that accusation holds any water, and given that it's little more than an ad hominem(And a poor one at that), it's irrelevant to boot.
