A Cub Scout in Broomfield has been kicked out of his den, allegedly for
asking pointed questions of a Colorado state senator at meeting organized
by the Boy Scouts.

Eleven-year-old Ames Mayfield, a fifth-grader at Prospect Ridge Academy
and a Scout for five years, on Oct. 9 asked Sen. Vicki Marble, R-Fort
Collins, questions about gun control, and about comments Marble made at a
2013 legislative hearing on poverty about mortality rates among African-
Americans.

The boy’s mother, Lori Mayfield, on Wednesday said Ames was kicked out of
his den, or Scout group, as a result.

“He is still kind of reeling from this,” Mayfield said. “He is really
sensitive, my heart breaks for him.”

Ames’ questions, and other Scouts’ questions, were recorded and posted on
YouTube by Mayfield in a video titled “Vicki Marble denies chicken-gate.”

“I was astonished that you blamed black people for poor health and poverty
because of all the chicken and barbecue they eat,” Ames said to Marble at
the Scout meeting.

“I didn’t, that was made up by the media,” Marble replied. “So, you want
to believe it? You believe it. But that’s not how it went down. I didn’t
do that. That was false. Get both sides of the story.”

In 2013 Marble said: “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.

“Although I’ve got to say,” she continued at the time. “I’ve never had
better barbecue and better chicken and ate better in my life than when you
go down South and you, I mean, I love it. Everybody loves it.”

On Oct. 9, at the den presentation, Marble, speaking to the Scouts in
calm, measured tones, responded, in part, to Ames’ question: “We have
multicultural foods in the United States and we are very blessed to have
it. And we all love it and we all eat it. And we just better figure out
our genetics.”

Marble went on to tell the Scouts that she’s from a multi-ethnic
background that includes “black, Mexican…Jew…Native American” and the
“lousy Irish!” People in the audience chuckled.

“Decisions about who is in or out of a den are internal organizational
matters that I won’t second guess,” Marble, majority caucus chair, said
Wednesday night in an email to The Post. “I don’t blame the boy for asking
the questions, since I believe there was an element of manipulation
involved, and it wasn’t much different from the questions I normally field
in other meetings. The invitation to meet with the scouts was never
intended to cause friction and controversy.”

Prior to the den meeting, Ames researched Marble, his mother said, as the
Scouts knew she would be speaking. Ames formulated the questions he would
ask, she said.

“The only coaching I gave him was to be respectful,” Mayfield said. “Don’t
be argumentative, preface things ‘with all due respect.'”

A den leader was upset by Ames’ line of questioning, Mayfield said. She is
looking for a new den for Ames to join.

“I felt my son followed directions. He asked hard questions, but he was
not disrespectful,” she said.

“The Denver Area Council is evaluating this matter closely and will treat
all parties with dignity and respect,” said Nicole Cosme, marketing
director of the Boy Scouts of America Denver Area Council.

Cosme added that the Boy Scouts is “a wholly nonpartisan organization and
does not promote any one political position, candidate or philosophy.”

Other Scouts asked Marble about the border wall, fossil fuels, and voting
for President Barack Obama. No other Scout was dismissed from the den,
Mayfield said.

Ames was offered membership in other dens, Cosme said. She declined to go
into detail about the meeting with Marble.

“We would like Ames to stay in Cub Scouts and become a Boy Scout,” Cosme
said.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party has run out of gas.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for ending the disaster of the
Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.

Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
