I may have some problems if she brought someone home wearing a pointy hat, flowing white robes, and instead of fire lighter's for the BBQ, he brought a burning cross.

My problem would be who to shoot first

This isn't an issue of discrimination based on skin color, this is an issue of celebrating culture.

No one race is better or worse than another. Each has its own distinct culture, values, heritage, and beliefs. It’s what makes living on this planet interesting and is the spice of life.

Mixed-race couples reduce diversity, diminish cultural bonds, and have tangible and damaging effects on their children, not just from overt racism, but internal rejection within each race of the parents. They place their children in the difficult position of trying to figure out who and what they are from a young age and that struggle can last a lifetime.

We should celebrate and enjoy the racial spectrum between us rather than degrade our diversity into one single homogeneous race.

I have no kids, so this is a hypothetical to me.

If she's an adult, I have no control over her behavior or choices in life.
So this isn't a question of allowing, it's a question of would you approve of it or not.

To that question I give an EMPHATICALLY stated...of course I would approve.

My daughter is still young. So I have a hard time imagining her dating anyone.
But,,, If it were my choice? Yes. If he is good to her, others, and makes her happy, who am I to try to take that away?

The race of the people that my daughter dates doesn't matter to me. however, their character and how they treat her is huge.

How did you determine it was a degradation?

If poodles ceased to exist, would that mean that bulldogs were degraded? Gimme a break.
