Jodie Brunstetter is the wife of state Sen. Peter Brunstetter (R), a supporter of Amendment 1, which would change North Carolina's Constitution to permit only heterosexual marriage.
According to the alternative Yes! Weekly, writer and campaigner Chad Nance spoke to a pollworker who told him that Jodie Brunstetter said, "The reason my husband wrote Amendment 1 was because the Caucasian race is diminishing and we need to uh, reproduce."
Nance has volunteered for a group working to defeat the marriage amendment and was until recently the campaign manager for a Democratic candidate for Congress. Nance resigned from the campaign to speak about Jodie Brunstetter's alleged remarks, according to Yes! Weekly.

(13,062 posts)How does forcing black gays to reproduce help preserve the Caucasian race, in her mind? Or is the intent only to force white gays to reproduce?
Racists don't make any sense, even from their own point of view.

(2,204 posts)I fear those people because they are different than me. THe love the wrong people. I have the power now to shove down the throats of progressive, liberal and any other North Carolinian that doesn't toe the line for the GOP in NC. It's all about discrimination and denying rights to all NC citizens. Makes me crazy!!!!
