[UUPoly-L] By the way ...



   Here's a part of the statement by Mildred Loving, on the 40th anniversary
   of the Loving v. Virginia decision:

   "Surrounded as I am now by wonderful children and grandchildren, not a day
   goes by that I don't think of Richard and our love, our right to marry,
   and how much it meant to me to have that freedom to marry the person
   precious to me, even if others thought he was the "wrong kind of person"
   for me to marry. I believe all Americans, no matter their race, no matter
   their sex, no matter their sexual orientation, should have that same
   freedom to marry. Government has no business imposing some people's
   religious beliefs over others. Especially if it denies people's civil
   rights.
   "I am still not a political person, but I am proud that Richard's and my
   name is on a court case that can help reinforce the love, the commitment,
   the fairness, and the family that so many people, black or white, young or
   old, gay or straight seek in life. I support the freedom to marry for all.
   That's what Loving, and loving, are all about."
