It’s not about marriage rights. It’s not about civil rights. It’s about human rights. And 40 years after the landmark United States Supreme Court decision in Loving v. Virginia, the battle continues. Mildred Loving (née Jeter) married Richard Perry Loving in 1958. Their home state of Virginia refused to recognize the legality of their marriage.

Judge Leon Brazile infamously proclaimed:

Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, Malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents. And but for the interference with his arrangement there would be no cause for such marriages. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix.

It always comes down to somebody’s personal delusion god, doesn’t it?
