20. Why does it make you angry to have an honest conversation about it?
You seem to feel as though somebody is forcing something down your throat. "Racist gutter"? What does that mean. At no time have I called you racist. Hell, I even appreciate that the fear you express is not "racist". It's quite natural.

I continue to maintain, that what's important is how you react to the fear.

Now let's have a really good conversation by asking what you propose we should do about the fact that some people want to preserve their skin color. How will we accomodate this desire to preserve skin color? For example, one way is to enact a law that prohibits breeding between different colors. Well, we know this solution won't work. Been tried before.

Now, I'm not being facetious here. I'm trying to engage you in a dialogue on what YOU brought up. Let's assume there's real value to preserving a skin color as you imply. What do you propose as an acceptable accomodation with this desire?
