NOT GOOD ENOUGH. He "routinely denied interracial marriages"
He must go to jail for violation of people's civil rights!

Too bad the rest of these type of neanderthal racists don't speak up such, so we know who they are. Too many are firmly in the closet with their racists ideology.

So would that mean Louisiana,is still running 60 years behind the rest of the country,and just who the hell does this Galah think gives him the right to pass judgement on a couple who want to marry,because he doesn't think it will last and for the sake of the Children?.

Ahhhhhhhh,Religion if only they would stick to what their supposed to be preaching and leave the real world to fend for itself.
What was the Louis Armstrong song?What a wonderful world.

Decency and civilisation prevailed in the end. I'd wish the happy couple a long, happy, fruitful and fulfilling life together. I wish them the joy of children and the happiness of growing old together in peace.

Good luck the pair of them.

HAMMOND, La. (AP) - A Louisiana justice of the peace said he refused to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple out of concern for any children the couple might have.

Isn't that buffoon aware of the law that protects people against this kind of discrimination?


That shouldn't be his concern nor his business especially that a lot of interracial children are beautiful and smart. His job is to issue the license not to stick his nose on anyone's business and to decide what's the best for them.

Cause and effect, Shiny. The reason they stay in the closet is because they know that society disapproves of them. Unfortunately for them it is then their actions (as in the case of this JOP), that expose them for what they are.

What hits them the most, is that the good people of the world are prepared to speak up against them, and let them know in no uncertain terms that their disgusting racism is abhorred and people will not tolerate their uncivilised attitudes.

There is an old saying that.... "For evil to flourish, it only takes good men to say nothing". I believe that is true, therefore the more of us who speak up and make our voices heard against race hate, the more evil will be put down. Not with violence or oppression, but with disapproval.

These people are entitled to their views, but we can let them know their views are despised. If they have the right of free speech to voice their views, we have the same right to voice our disapproval.

Let them know they are NOT approved of. Let them know how we, the vast majority of decent people, feel about it. Our disapproval of their attitudes may change some and that will be good. But for those who will not change their ways, they will be in no doubt that it is they who are in the wrong, and whatever they do, they will be condemned for it.

Civilisation will prevail in the end.

I hadn't read any of this until today. I'm shocked that people like him still exist! I know there are no shortage of racists in the world with all different skin colours but to be so blatant specially given his authority is downright outragious!

I hope the civil lawsuit bleeds the idiot dry!




If You're right there is no need to shout, if you're wrong then there is little point in shouting.

As much as I disagree with Judge, to have him arrested would be harsh. He is off the bench and his name is smeared.
Racism is and has been around for all time and will continue throughout time. The difference today is that there are handfuls of racists pigs and they come in all color. It is not only whitey that discriminates.
When it comes to Gay people getting married..... let em. Why can;t we all do what the hell we want to do?
Because we need laws and the majority decision votes these laws and the majority right now in most states do not approve of gay marriage

I fail to see the big deal with this. If he has a problem, it's his 'gig' to choose to do it or not. If he doesn't want to, so be it.

Can everyone here tell me they have done EVERYTHING their bosses have told them EVER, and justify it because 'it was their job'?
