Funny the Klan felt the same way about Blacks and guns.

Dr. Carson is a smart man. He can be reasoned with. That is a good start.

Dr. Ben Carson is a damn good man but he’s not presidential timber. Who’s pushing him to even think he could be a presidential contender? My guess is the establishment is in the one calling the shots for the good doctor.

Well, I wouldn’t want crazy people getting my guns either.

The Dems really have nothing to worry about; we’ll destroy our own candidates than you!

I swear, the Dems must laugh their collective A$$es of at us. And we call the GOPe the “Stupid Party”? Pfft.

I am afraid to say that I agree with Carson. It depends where you live. If you live, say for the sake of argument, in America, then you can own guns. But if you live in North Korea, generally, no, you will not be allowed to own firearms.

Anyone who was going to vote for someone because he made one decent speech needs to have his/her head examined.

Whether or not the good doctor has the correct view on gun rights is not an important question.

A candidacy on his part would be just another sideshow taking away votes from more serious conservative candidates with the experience necessary to put policies into practice and choose the right people to keep the government running efficiently, effectively, and Constitutionally.

Ruh Roh what?

This reads to me like friendly fire agit-prop.

If Carson is as smart and compassionate and principled and experienced and life-saving as his history suggests, then let's not "ruh roh" every little purity screed that someone decides to publish.

Let's be a little bit more reasoned and balanced in how we interpret the long run.

A lot of people voted for Ross Perot who was pro-abortion and rabidly anti-gun, he wanted to go door to door and confiscate them.

Citizens should be able to own full auto weapons.

It's legal now if you can afford both the 200 dollar tax and the price of an old gun like a Thompson or a BAR.

They have it set up so only old full auto weapons are allowed so those old weapons command a pretty steep price.

I get the feeling that Dr. Carson doesn't know what a "semi-automatic" weapon is.

Dumb question. Dumb answer.

Dr. Carson is not ready for prime time.

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.

If one right can be restricted by zip code, then they all can.

And there is no shortage of crazy people living in rural areas, either.

Ben Carson is dangerously wrong on this.

A liberal rag trying to preemptively turn conservatives on a potential (and I question that “fact”) GOP candidate...
While I disagree with Ben Carson on his view of guns, I am not, and hopefully we are all not a single-issue voter. As president, he cannot single handedly implement gun control. He’s never stated any intentions of attacking the second amendment. I think this is simply a preemptive liberal attack, and a good one from some of the responses. If you’re a single-issue voter, you are a handicap to our conservative movement...

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.”

Right, because people are 100% stationary and never move around from place to place. People are basically meat trees. Totally fixed in one position.

I assume Carson is intelligent enough to respect the criticism he deserves.

has been enjoying near "rock star" status in ostensibly conservative circles.

Just another in the long list of black saviors for the GOP

I would rather you not have it,” Carson elaborated.

And I'd rather you go FYslf.
