Tibetan, I'm so glad to hear you've changed your mind about this. I was getting sore from biting my tongue whenever anyone said that dark eyes are the result of toxins or some other "disease". I found that to be unintentionally racist, but lately it seemed like you'd realized the implications and changed your mind. Maybe I'm wrong, and you haven't changed your mind about that, but if so then your response to Melobangz wouldn't make sense.
I don't think Melobangz is saying that blue is the "true" eye color. Im almost completely sure that he's saying that everyone's eyes would be blue if most of the melanin was removed. There's nothing racist about that statement. It's just a statement of fact. Remove all the melanin from both layers of the iris and you'd have pink eyes (and probably begin to go blind).
