By Fox News. Potential 2016 presidential candidate Ben Carson apologized Wednesday for saying homosexuality was a lifestyle choice.
“I do not pretend to know how every individual came to their sexual orientation,” Carson said on his Facebook page late Wednesday afternoon. “I regret that my words to express that concept were hurtful and divisive. For that I apologize unreservedly to all that were offended.”
Carson, a neurosurgeon, was attempting to clarify comments he made earlier in the day to Chris Cuomo on CNN’s “New Day” show.
“A lot of people who go into prison go into prison straight — and when they come out, they’re gay,” Carson told Cuomo. “So, did something happen while they were in there? Ask yourself that question.” (Read more about Ben Carson apologizing for the homosexuality comments HERE)

Ben Carson Claims Prison Proves That Being Homosexual Is “Absolutely” A Choice
By Justin Baragona. Potential 2016 GOP Presidential candidate Ben Carson appeared on CNN’s New Day Wednesday morning and told host Chris Cuomo that prisons prove that being gay is a choice. In a discussion about same-sex marriage, Cuomo asked the renowned neurosurgeon if he believed homosexuality is a lifestyle choice. Carson, who in the past compared Obamacare to slavery, answered the CNN host by saying, “Absolutely!” This then led to the good doctor informing all that men engaging in homosexual activity in prison proves that being gay is a conscious lifestyle choice.
“Because a lot of people who go into prison go into prison straight — and when they come out, they’re gay. So, did something happen while they were in there? Ask yourself that question.” (Read more from this story HERE)

When will “we” learn.
Never back down or apologize because the secular humanists object to what you said.
Ben Carson might as well cancel his Presidential Exploratory Committee. He’s done.
Obama Says Homosexuality Is A ‘Lifestyle Choice’
President Barack Obama’s gay allies are ignoring his endorsement of the long-standing claim that sexual orientation is a matter of choice.
“I think people know that treating folks unfairly, even if you disagree with their lifestyle choice… Let them live their lives and under the law they should be treated equally,” he said 25 minutes into his Wednesday interview with GloZell Green, a YouTube personality.
Obama’s statement violates progressives’ demand that Americans believe there’s no choice in sexual orientation.
But Obama’s statement reflects mainstream views.
A May 2014 poll by Gallup showed that only 42 percent of Americans believe all gay people are “born that way,” regardless of choice. Thirty-seven percent of Americans believe that homosexuality is linked to upbringing and environment.

Glads to see this phony get exposed early on before people wasted a lot of energy on him.
If his 2nd Amendment stance did not convince you, this should.
We accuse dems of supporting people because the color of their skin, sad thing is if this guy was white we would not even be talking about him.
Exactly.
Why is it that homosexuals do not have to apologize for there most outrageous antics?
This
So as much as the Gaystapo likes to equate homosexuality with being black, I'm not sure there's ever been a case of a black person all of a sudden becoming white.
Michael Jackson notwithstanding.
The gays just bent him over and had their way with him. Nope Carson’s not presidential material. His 2nd amendment stance already killed most of the support he would have had anyway. He just needs to back off the idea altogether...
Carson is impressive in his own right as a surgeon so I don’t get why he wants to subject himself to lesser beings known as politicians and their professional butt-kissers, the media. His inability to understand nuance is also surprising in his superficial pronouncements about guns and homosexuality.
> Why is it that homosexuals do not have to apologize for there most outrageous antics?
Because most are done in secret and so disgusting we’d rather not know about them with the exception of the children they molest totally pisses off “normal” God fearing people...

Because most are done in secret and so disgusting we’d rather not know about them with the exception of the children they molest which totally pisses off “normal” God fearing people...
“Never apologize, it’s a sign of weakness...”
I am beginning to think that such integrity has been bred or beaten out of American men.
“Glads to see this phony get exposed early on before people wasted a lot of energy on him.”
Ben Carson is and never will be ready for running for POTUS. In other words, NOT ready for prime time, and his presence hurts better candidates. He needs to wake up.
Mr. niteowl77
Cabinet post - not president.
Surgeon General
Gotcha...
Exactly. It makes him appear “dumb”. And that is what the homofascists want-—to discredit anyone who knows that their evil, dysfunctional lifestyle promotion is going to collapse civil society and flip 2000 years of Good and Evil and normalize paganism, satanism and Ba’al worship in the children.
There is no other religion, but Christianity, which is aligned with Natural Law Theory (embedded philosophy of the US Constitution)-—”laws of Nature and nature’s God” which supports the Justice System of our Founders-—where Good and Evil is Universal Truth and NEVER evolves. Using human beings as a Means to an End is unjust always, using people in disgusting, degrading manner-—as sodomy always does—can NOT be promoted in a “Justice” (virtue) System.
It flips Good and Evil and erases Christianity. Without sexual morality—thee is no Christian “faith” allowed in the public square. Franklin Graham is correct——Christians are going to be punished and there will be no possibility of religious freedom for Christians who are not willing to tell their little boys to take Pride in anal sex.
The homofacists are promoting Satanism and trying to normalize their muslim behaviors in little children, and making Satanism or Luciferean the National Religion of America-—flipping the Ethics System of America to the old pagan, muslim ones where Good and Evil is relative-—Might makes Right-—Rule of Man——
And we will have eliminated Rule of Law (Higher Law than irrational man-made up base urges “law”) which used to be America’s system prior to FDR and Oliver Wendell Holmes, jr. who deformed the Language and Words——twists “justice” to be meaningless as all good Marxists do. He let the camel under the tent-—to completely destroy our “Justice” System and reduce it to Stalin’s justice systems which is tyranny and evil.
