Hes stated he thinks some firearms should be banned in urban areas.

He has since backtracked but not adequately imo.

How can you take Stephanie Cutter seriously as a host? She was front and center Obama operative. Dirty one at that.

I think this video brilliantly demonstrates where we’re headed.

This:

“I rest my case” and

“People in Nazi Germany, most of them did not believe in what Hitler was doing. But, instead of protesting, instead of registering their displeasure, they simply decided to go along to get along. That is a very dangerous thing to do.”

Genius...speaking softly and carrying a big stick...his stick are his words as they emanate from his great mind.

In the historical world, as distinct from the world of literature, all socialism is national socialism, just as all capitalism is crony capitalism.

I really wish Carson didn’t have his head up his arse on RKBA. I like a lot of what he says otherwise.

All they (the left and right) has done is translate the nazi instruction/play book into English!...Need I go on?

Actually, yes.

Could you please explain how the TEAparty, Ted Cruz, Rush and other patriots have emulated THE FREAKIN' NAZIS?

I think that maybe he could have used a different analogy. If he needed one to compare America with some other ideology.

Why? Carson has the courage of his convictions, facts, logic and balls on his side. It is exactly his point not to be told to sit down and shut up. Some have to unlearn this.

Actually, the opposite is true. There should be a bounty on specific gang-bangers. Just like the old West.

To me it’s all just a matter of semantics, which is why I usually don’t even distinguish between the two. The foundation of Nazi Germany was built in the 1920s.

Sadly, Carson sees no problem with gun control taking us down that same path...

I think firearms should be banned in urban areas, too — mainly because urban areas in this country are so fouled up and rabidly leftist that I don’t even consider them part of America anymore.

Hitler took advantage of the turmoil going on. It was a Jews blame game.

Not really in my estimation. There are so many people out there comparing the US to Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia or North Korea, etc. Nazi Germany extinguished the lives of millions of people during WW2 - actually set up death factories to accomplish it (read Auschwitz, the book) How is it that America is compared to that regime??? If Carson has the courage of his convictions, facts and logic maybe he can explain better the analogy of the comparison.

It is the one thing I strongly disagree with him on. I understand why he came to that conclusion but he is wrong

I may be a simple and humble man.
However, I completely understood what he stated.
Not a rocket scientist, but that was pretty succinct!
