"You stupidly said not allowing interracial marriage was a violation of "our guaranteed rights to blacks.""

It was a violation of everybody's rights. Ok?

"We just changed the definition (Marriage was defined as between a man and a woman of the same race) in 1967"

So we had a national law in 1967 that stated this? My guess is it was a state law that was overridden in 1967. I'd like to see this definition. It still is an invalid comparison. You compare a genetic trait that resulted in the violation of EVERYBODY in America's (or more likely the states that had such laws) rights to the sexual preferences of someone.

"Well they're restricted by the military whether you think it's a reasonable rule or not"

Then try to get that rule changed, and argue it on it's own merit.
