for Republican lawmaker in Colorado while debating solutions for poverty
with other lawmakers
said some unfortunate things by forcing and the point is to discuss ways to
decrease the poverty rate in Colorado
now racial disparities were discussed but when the topic
%uh minorities in infant mortality came up
that's when senator marble shared her philosophy
when you look at my pics that in
be there certain term there are problems in the black grey
and ago Narnia in something that comes up
arm baby did here and
something that prevalent in the genetic makeup
although i cud hey and I'm never had
at better barbecuing better kick in
a better night and when you go down now the new
I'm I'm love it now representative field says that those comments about food and
african-americans
were insensitive and germane to the discussion
she shared her thoughts right after at the center finished up
and when everything I will not tolerate
is way them and implanted into
we mark about african-american
the color a bit again what you mentioned
that we eek I would highly offended by your remarks and what we're trying to do
with the come up with meaningful
pollution and not about kickin it's not about you can kick in
representative fields didn't stay for the entire committee meeting but we had
a chance to speak with senator marble about her comments after the meeting
ended
she says she has these types of conversations with her black friends and
family members
and doesn't see the issue it's not racist
its its bringing out the back so that you can be aware
and take better care of yourself all that so down
now understand whenever there's a scientist
or a doctor or a researcher now want to talk about genetics and talk about minor
differences between
on average between white people and black people how white people
are up more often succumb to certain diseases in certain
genetic issues and black people succumb to other ones
%uh ball s fine and there's no problem with that and not just a
open dialogue about a biology but whatever you hear somebody who's not
a scientist or a doctor or researcher bring up genetics
run for the hills guaranteed
to be not true and likely offensive
so this is not that remember
the debate they were having was about poverty
and in the middle of a party to me sure you guys got understand there are
certain things that some races just do so for example most part people
they get sick in these ways so it should be clear I mean
we can maybe do something to try to fix poverty but at the end of the day does
it really matter cuz black people are gonna be poor anyway
hello their black all
all that sold on man and then put the icing on the cake
she's like well well
people from Mexico they are center because they had a lot of fresh
vegetables
they are you any if there were just
articles out two weeks ago talking about how Mexico
has now surpassed the United States as officially
the fattest country in the world hero everything this one
nah man look clearly
there is nothing inherent in
somebody skin a collar that would lead to
determining pre determining their level of work ethic or
where they fall in terms of any income
distribution you know it reminds me of West Point
when I was in college want to thank the first or is in sociology that shows a
graph
and showed how murderers and iced ice cream sales rose
together right so a in idiot would look at that and say it will always love you
I was going on
owns you leading to the gruesome and murders or ice cream is dangerous he got
a ban it right
much ridiculous nobody would say that
prophetically dumb right well this is
exactly what she's doing so she is going well look since there's
are you know statistically speaking there's up more people
better black that are poor will obviously that means their inferior and
then no matter what they do they're gonna be poor
causation correlation you fall
