The guy I was responding to lives in Minnesota (so do I). Minnesotans aren't critical of interracial marriage but they do tend to point out when people are "different." Especially once you get outside of the Twin Cities. Regarding your specific examples, Idaho, Montana and Utah have higher rates of interracial marriage than MN. The Hmong community is pretty insular and it would be surprising if they factored into the interracial marriage stats in any significant way.
