Mark Steyn: Interracial Marriage Laws Irrelevant To Gay Marriage Debate

"So the ban on interracial marriage was the innovation β€” and a disgusting, localized innovation β€” in Virginia and other American states, [and it was] at odds with every common-law jurisdiction in the British West Indies, for example, or in India,” conservative author and commentator Mark Steyn said on the Thursday broadcast of Hugh Hewitt's nationally syndicated radio program. β€œSo in other words, in other common-law traditions, there was hundreds of years of experience with interracial marriage. It’s a completely irrelevant, it’s an entirely irrelevant comparison, and I’m astonished by the laziness of Ted Olson and others who rely on that Loving v. Virginia case.."
