not only do they think this is a reason to say Carson should not be president, they will also act outraged at the notion that someone would not vote for a muslim for president.
double standards and hypocrisy is the stock and trade....
And they want a president where four Americans died under her watch...
What is there to talk about? I'm not tripping all over myself and my fellow braindeads to try and spin something he said like you and others are. Why does he scare you so much? Is it maybe because your jealous that he's smarter than you?
look there's no need to be defensive because you were going to vote for him, all of us make mistakes...
So it was stupid that he was able to talk his way out of a dangerious situation? That seems like a trait that would be highly desirable for a president.
Telling the gunman to go after someone else is a desirable trait?
Why is Carson fabricating stories? Was the story about him stabbing a man was also a lie?
Unless he can come up with some kind of proof, like a police report I think it is likely that the story is made up:
Quote:
A Carson spokeswoman did not respond to a request for comment Thursday or for more details as to when and where the incident occurred. Baltimore Police said Thursday that they could not find any report related to the incident based on the little information that Carson had provided. "We searched for it and based on the general statement, we have no report," said T.J. Smith, the department's chief spokesman. "Need more info." There has been a Popeye's franchise on North Broadway — just south of the Hopkins medical campus — for many years. But without more information, Carson just as well could have been talking about a Popeye's in Baltimore County, where he used to live, Smith said. A request for comment from Popeye's was not returned Thursday.
Carson moved to Baltimore decades ago after graduating from medical school, and performed his residency at Hopkins. He went on to direct pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center for 29 years.
In 2002, Carson was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, leading him to forsake meat and junk food and take up a diet of organic fruits and vegetables. "Lots of salads, lettuce and tomatoes and cukes and carrots and beets and onions and things like that," Carson said of his diet in a 2002 story in The Baltimore Sun.

What's to spin?
Dr. Carson stated that he told the gunman that he (the gunman) wanted the kid behind the counter.
His words.
People can deflect all they want, but those are his words.
Amazing the number of people in this thread who appear to be afraid to address the actual content and meaning of that statement.
I'm using my street sense. It doesn't add up. Makes no sense. Rob him in a Popeye's for what exactly?
Nah...never happened. And I guarantee you that no one will corroborate that story either.
