Light vs dark

This is not a popular position or a slam against any particular family or poster...that said....

It really bums me out when people are "comfortable" or "open" to raising hispanic or guat children but not to black children. I can't seem to figure out how it could be OK to raise a light or lighter skin child - but not a black or AA child. In what way is it percieved as easier for the child or the adoptive parents if they have lighter skin........and if you have ANY racial issues at all why not be CC only. I have the hardest time understanding this.
