    There are 8 billion people on this planet now. Surely you can find someone who isn’t black

    Same line of reasoning, just 50 years ago.

    We shouldn’t ban consenting adult relationships solely because they are icky.

          No, I want you to explain your reasoning, you’re the one who made it. please explain how marrying a black person is just like marrying your first cousin.

              Incorrect. One results in higher than normal birth defects that exacerbate over time, and one is perfectly healthy. We, as a society, should try to limit birth defects, no? Are you also in favor of bringing back thalidomide?
