Those that knew him as a young boy said he was a good kid. Quiet and bookish.

His ‘thug past’ is likely a Brian Williams-type story. It made for good reading.

Of course, not the tight look at Carson’s past while Obama got a compete walk.

In fact, anyone who questioned Obama’s past was quickly called racist at the time.

This is terrible news - why couldn’t he come up with a composite girlfriend?

Carson is a leftist and cultist.

The way his book described it, it wasn’t a “thug past” so much as a boyhood dispute that got out of hand because he was having trouble dealing with anger. It wasn’t described as habitual behavior, rather a frightening overreaction that could have been worse had the other kid’s buckle not deflected the knife. I was under the impression it was just a pocketknife. The incident made him realize he had a real problem and needed to think about ways to control his temper so if he got angry again it wouldn’t turn out disastrous all around.

It’s not unusual at least in my day for fights to break out that parents were never privy to... once you’ve grown up and moved on it’s water under the bridge.

Kinda like Obama’s fake name girlfriends but somehow I believe Carson and he might be on happy drugs.

Or Tiger Wood’s claims of racially motivated attacks when he was in kindergarten.
