La, Interracial Couple:Justice (Keith Bardwell) of the peace refused to marry an interracial couple

The McKay's say they never imagined their drama would attract so much attention. "I had an interview with BBC last night. CNN called," Beth says. She and husband Terence are the newest celebrity couple to hit the airwaves.
Just one day after hearing about the couple's controversy, national media shined the spotlight on Terence and Beth McKay. "I thought it'd be local. We thought just be around this area. It went international," says Terence.
The newly married McKay's say they just wanted a simple wedding ceremony. So the bride called Keith Bardwell, a justice of the peace in Robert, Louisiana. But instead of agreeing to their "I do's", Bardwell said, "I won't" because the couple is interracial.
"He said he does not do interracial couples. He's not going to marry us because your black and I'm white," Terence says recalling what Beth told him. "I was like its 2009."

Don't see what the problem is with them wanting to be married. The black dude is certain not a gangster wannabe who thinks sagging is a good fashion fad.

let all of them be married and be as miserable as the rest of us.

I can understanding not marrying gays because its definately unnatural. But not marrying interracial couples is wrong, if one is a man and the other is a woman, no matter the color it is natural.
