BEN CARSON ON GUNS
http://www.ontheissues.org/Ben_Carson.htm
* Law-abiding citizens have right to guns without registration. (Mar 2014)
* Extremely pro-2nd Amendment; never let anyone tamper with it. (Feb 2014)
* Semi-automatic weapons ok in countryside, but not cities. (Mar 2013)
Number 3 does not comport with number 2.
Big problem!
BIG!
Semi-automatic weapons ok in countryside, but not cities
Appearing on Glenn Beck’s radio show this past week, Carson took a vastly different stance from most conservatives on the issue of gun control, claiming you shouldn’t be able to own semi-automatic weapons in large cities.
Asked by Beck for his thoughts on the Second Amendment, Carson gave the popular pro-gun argument: “There’s a reason for the Second Amendment; people do have the right to have weapons.”
But when asked whether people should be allowed to own “semi-automatic weapons,” the doctor replied: “It depends on where you live. I think if you live in the midst of a lot of people, and I’m afraid that that semi-automatic weapon is going to fall into the hands of a crazy person, I would rather you not have it,” Carson elaborated. However, if you live “out in the country somewhere by yourself” and want to own a semi-automatic weapon, he added, “I’ve no problem with that.”
