redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Colorado must be so proud. Rep. Rhonda Fields (D) responded moments later: “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.” Im assuming because Sen. Marble said "the black race"? I really don't understand that, im white. Whats wrong with calling people black or brown? I guess you have to be more politically correct depending on situation. by the way, if eating fried chicken and BBQ led to poverty I would be living under a bridge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hacker 82 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Any Southern over the age of 50 knows that eating fried chicken doesn't lead to poverty. My grandparents were poor and kept chickens because they were a renewable food source. One rooster and a few hens could provide meat, eggs and pocket money on an ongoing basis. This ladies comment shows ignorance is still a scourge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
