I think you need to study up on your genetics a bit. Especially long term effects on populations, especially during periods of heavy migration across the globe like what is occuring now at unprecedented levels.

Excuse me, but I think you need to study up a bit, and explain how the hundred of million blond genes out there are gonna disappear. Shoot, even if you committed genocide against all blonds, there would still be hundred of millions of recessive blond genes out there waiting to reappear.

Migration and mixing may reduce the incidence of gene expression, but will not reduce the number of carriers for the recessive genes. Cystic fibrosis is also an autosomal recessive trait and the individuals with the disease are frequently infertile. Despite the inability of the homozygous individuals to reproduce, the recessive allele has not "died out". This story did not pass the freshman biology smell test.
