CO Republican State Lawmaker Plays Chicken With Black People!

Hence an irony: The Republican lawmaker on the left is serving food that makes people obese. 

This week in unlikely bigotry comes from a state senator from the state of Colorado. The state representative was in meeting with her fellow representatives discussing a serious budget issue. The issue soon turned into "I THINK I KNOW WHAT THESE BLACK FOLK ARE EATING" moment.

Vicki Marble is a state legislator for the U.S. State of Colorado. Elected to the Colorado State Senate as a Republican in 2012, Marble represents State Senate District 23, which encompasses parts of Broomfield, Larimer, and Weld Counties; including Broomfield, Erie, Longmont, North Glenn, and Windsor.

She developed barrel racing skills and became a nationally-ranked Pro Rodeo Barrel Racer. During her rodeo career, Marble also raised two young sons. She has managed her own businesses since.

Prior to her legislative career, Marble served on the Larimer Country Rural Land Use Board as well as the 8th Judicial District Performance Commission.

Marble owns and maintains two businesses in the bail bonds industry in the Fort Collins area, and resides there with her two sons.

Vicki Marble, Colorado Senate Republican

Colorado Republican state senator Vicki Marble will tell you that "she has Black friends". She's probably eaten at the local KFC where she see probably seen LaQuinsha or Tyrone feeding their eight children. After all she knows that since she's an aficionado of the Black culture, she a middle aged White woman would say that "we black folk" are embolden to chicken, watermelon, collard greens, and a 40 ounce.

But a clear look at her Facebook page shows not many Black or Hispanic friends in a sea of White faces.

She'll tell you that she supported Herman Cain's failed run for president. And probably show her love for Dr. Benjamin Carson if he should "shucky ducky" into the 2016 race for the White House.

Her first year in the state house and she's acting a damn fool. In other words, she's a rodeo clown investing in the iron college lottery (jail/bail bonds).

This week at an Economic Opportunity Poverty Reduction Task Force meeting at the Colorado State Capitol in Denver chaired by State Sen. John Kefalas, Marble ignited controversy and Democratic criticism when she gave a speech that included extensive comments on the eating habits of various minority groups.

"When you look at life expectancy, there are problems in the black race: sickle-cell anemia is something that comes up, diabetes is something that’s prevalent in the genetic makeup and you just can’t help it,” Marble said. “Although I’ve got to say, I’ve never had better BBQ and better chicken and ate better in my life than when you go down south and you — I love it.”

Further, Marble commented that "Mexicans eat vegetables in Mexico but stop eating healthily when they immigrate to the United States."

Colorado State Senator Rhonda Fields, a Democrat checked Marble on her comments.

Fellow state legislator Rhonda Fields, an African-American and Democrat from Aurora, Colorado was also present wished she could have smack that woman up. But she had to hold restraint because she's a lawmaker and she didn't want to be a focus on Loserville.

“The title for this committee is the Economic Opportunity Poverty Reduction Task Force; and one of the things I will not tolerate is racist and insensitive comments about African Americans, the color of their skin. You mentioned what we eat — I was highly offended by your remarks,” Fields said, addressing Marble directly.

Marble then released a statement clarifying her remarks:

“My comments were not meant to be disparaging to any community,” she said. “I am saddened they were taken in that regard. I take my responsibility seriously and I hope our work on this committee will offer real solutions to the health and financial challenges of our vulnerable populations.”

You're not sadden by the comments. That's probably what you're thinking about Black people when you're trying to issue bail bonds to an innocent individual.

She's really off her marbles! NO PUN INTENDED.
