It sounds like BS also....or some dumb jacka$$ wants him name in the paper and has a death wish......
“Doubloon” kids would have trouble in Creole Land? I. just. plain. don’t. believe. it.
Put me down for 2 of each.
Somebody tell this clown that plenty of white couples get divorced as well.
It would be. The folks who project their racism onto everybody else. Jimmuh Cahtuh comes to mind.
Worked out OK for them ... and said State has since repealed that misguided law.

Was this article from 1939?
“Keith Bardwell, justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish, says it is his experience that most interracial marriages do not last long. “
***
And the three interracial couples I know have been together for more than 30 years. On the other hand, I knew a white couple who were married in June of 1980 and divorced by September of that year. Where does this guy get his information? Just how many interracial couples does he know personally? Probably none.
Oh, and the three couples I mentioned above — two of them are grandparents now. Seems their children were all very well adjusted. So...so much for the JP’s “experience.”
Federal civil rights law forbids this anyhow. If this story is modern, some little town courthouse is going to be SO busted.
Tangipahoa Parish is the home of the Spears family of Kentwood. Perhaps you have heard of their daughter Brittney, the one who puts cigarettes out on her kids’ heads? Hammond is about 45 miles east of Baton Rouge and 45 miles north of New Orleans.
Idiot. Most of the black kids in our school are interracial. What planet does he live on?
“My main concern is for the children.”
They might become president?

Sounds like a Democrat to me.
Maybe he figured that since the would be hubby and wife are different races, they obviously can’t be inbred enough to keep that proper hick civic pride. I say hick, they are not worthy of being called red neck.
If they can prove damages, they have a clear § 1983 suit on their hands.
“I do ceremonies for black couples right here in my house,” Bardwell said.

That’s mighty white of ya, Bardwell” R2 said.
In my experience, only Euro-Asian and Euro-Hispanic mixed marriages actually work. I have encountered only one successful Euro-Black marriage. Cultural differences between American blacks and other racial and/or ethnic groups are, in my opinion, at the root of this incompatibility. (Note: by “Euro”, I mean European-American, aka “white”.)
That being said, I am not an anthropologist, and I have no idea what the statistical likelihood of success of racially-mixed marriages in the United States may be. My opinion is based solely on my own personal observations and may not be indicative of larger trends. If any of you have statistical information on this topic, I’d be interested in reading it.
