Dr. Carson on Gun Rights
Posted by fivedollargold 12 years, 1 month ago to Politics
Several Gulchers have asked about Dr. Ben Carson's position on the 2nd Amendment. In this short clip, he doesn't sound all that knowledgeable about guns. On the other hand, he supports the 2nd Amendment within certain limitations. Probably needs to educate himself more on this issue if he decides to run for office.

Again, the old definition by one of the founders - 'Democracy is three wolves and a sheep deciding on what to have for dinner.' (paraphrased)| Permalink

- 1Posted by $ Mimi 12 years, 1 month agoI kind of like his answer. It’s reasoned. Why can’t both sides sit down and discuss their fears? He expressed what his personal views are toward assault weapons, but perhaps after learning more about the issue he will acknowledge that his views would have to take a back-seat to what people want or perhaps his views will evolve. I trust him to take the right steps.| Permalink
