Son, you speak the truth here. That is why it is imperative, IMPERATIVE, I tell you, to defend the sovereign right of each state. I tell you, in these states today there are those who would defend miscegeny and who would not permit appropriate legal distinctions between, for example, Octoroons and American Citizens, even in states with no such ridiculous notions. If Florida wants to jail young'uns for the rest of their life, well, I have no problem with that. I'm sure they won't be white anyways.
