What Hines Ward Hath Wrought
I never realized my kids were illegal: Korea to Legalize Mixed-Race Status.

The proposal is mostly feel-good fluff:
    [The Ministry of Justice] is also considering changing the term "mixed-blood people" to "people of international marriages" in government documents.
It also contains some highly objectionable proposals:
    Under the contemplated bill, the government would establish nursery schools for the children of mixed parentage in the low-income bracket.

    Also, universities would be required to receive a certain number of mixed-heritage students....

    As a first step, the government will conduct a survey of the mixed-race population and their sufferings in real life, the officials said.
Meanwhile, Mr. Ward's mother has a few things to say, from Football Star's Mother Looks Back in Anger:
    Even in America, Korean's don't get along. Koreans who immigrated ignored us. Koreans of the same skin color are even more racist among themselves. It doesn't make sense. If everybody hates our children so much because their skin is a different color, then why do Koreans run around dying their hair blond and red?
Or get "double eye-lid" surgery by the millions?
