The Colorado Democratic legislator who once suggested “ballpoint pens” were reasonable alternatives to handguns for self-defense wrote on Facebook that “cold fingers of fear grasped at my throat” in the wake of the George Zimmerman trial when his 15-year-old son asked if it was OK to play cops-and-robbers outside with toy Nerf guns.
“With a dry mouth and wet eyes, I angrily told him that he could not go outside and play a simple childhood game,” state Rep. Jessie Ulibarri wrote in a message he later promoted on the liberal blog ColoradoPols.
Ulibarri, who is Hispanic, was afraid his son would be profiled because of his dark skin.

“15-year-old son asked if it was OK to play cops-and-robbers outside with toy Nerf guns.” **************************** Is his son mentally handicapped? If not, why is a 15 year old asking his father that? Strange...Must have been after his nap and after he finished his juice out of his sippy cup.

“his 15-year-old son “
His 15 year old DAUGHTER. The sissy doesn’t have a son. He raised a girl.

These people look like they have a collective IQ of about 50.

“Cops & Robbers does seem a bit strange for a 15 yr. old. At that age I owned my own firearms, and I literally lived on my Honda 90. A century ago it seems.

I wonder which color ink is more lethal. Black, blue or red.

Ulibarri, who is Hispanic, was afraid his son would be profiled because of his dark skin. Looks an awful lot like a 'white hispanic' to me.
