Wednesday on CNN’s “New Day,” in reacting to his rival Dr. Ben Carson’s controversial comments about the Oregon shooting, Republican presidential candidate Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) expressed his skepticism in questioning the wisdom of people who have lost their lives.
Carson said yesterday on Fox News, “Not only would I probably not cooperate with him, I would not just stand there and let him shoot me. I would say hey guys everybody attack him, he may shoot me approximate but he can’t get us all.”

Why is what Carson said controversial? Isn’t this what the people on Flight 800 did on 9/11? Stood up and fought the terrorists rather than meekly sitting there when they’re all going to die anyway?
Or the 3 soldiers on the train in France, I think.
Such folks can take the most enlightened and personal statement of fact and turn it into a PC weapon to suit whatever agenda they wish.
It’s so weird. One of the US guys who stopped the terrorist in Paris is enrolled at that community college. He would’ve been there if he hadn’t been on Dancing With The Stars. We literally need more like him.
Oooops! Should be “Progressive PC Club member,” of course.
STFU, Linda
Too bad Graham didn’t wash away in the flood in SC.
Instead of flapping his jaws about Carson, Graham should be in SC, meeting with flood ravaged constituents.
This whole thing is a beautiful example of a completely corrupt media.
Q: What would you do in situation _________?
A: I would do this.
Q: How dare you question the actions of people in situation __________!
Lindsey Graham is an expert in the "duck your head and hope it passes" strategy, he uses it every time an important issue that could lead to a conservative victory pops up. So far he's survived so that would certainly be his advice to anyone else in a dangerous situation.
Linda would have hit him with her purse. Then called for U.N. intervention.
Amen to that. Graham is a big loser, with no sense of proportion whatsoever. Why did he ever believe it is remotely possible to get himself elected POTUS? Why is he still in the race? I suppose only because the media are desperate for people who have some sort of claim to knock the GOP frontrunners.
“STFU, Linda”
I would add, go ahead and be a lamb to slaughter. Some of us want to put up a fight.
Linda would have thrown his Cell Phone at the Shooter.
Oh never mind, he would only throw it at Trump.
Well, for starters, the good people of South Carolina, with full knowledge of what he is, re-elected him to the Senate. He figures that if he can fool them, he can fool everyone else.
Bingo
He’s the GOPe’s designated splitter for SC.
It’s called fighting back... We cheered the passengers of Flight 93 for giving themselves a chance to retake the aircraft, but Carson is castigated for suggesting a similar action?
STFU, Linda.

His worldview is sick and warped (anti-human, anti-Rational). (He was obviously warped/neglected/abused in childhood).
There is nothing about “Real” and “Truth” in his utopian, sick, irrational world.
