Discussion: Carson: I've Had A Gun Held On Me And I Told The Attacker Who He Wanted (AUDIO)

This statement is utter bullshit. I simply do not believe him. I’VE had a gun pulled on me. I almost pissed myself. That’s an honest reaction. The good Dr. is totally making his story up.

So THAT’S how the students in Oregon were supposed to react! Either rush the assailant or yell “Shoot him, shoot him, ***it’s the other guy you want!!***”

I ask this question in all sincerity: what was this statement supposed to prove/show?:

That he was some kind of tough guy
That he has a sense of humor
That he’s “Black enough” to like Popeye’s (p.s. I love, love, love their dirty rice and extra crunchy wings)
That he is a sh*tbag

The chances that any piece of his anecdote is true are about zero percent give or take zero.

What?
So he is PROUD that he redirected a guy with a gun to the poor schlub behind the counter thus saving HIS OWN SKIN at the cost of someone else? See, it really IS “All about Ben”.
This guy is a case-study narcissistic sociopath . Brilliant at what he does (neurosurgery) because he has no empathy whatsoever for others. It allows complete clinical detachment and cold, calculating calm. The only person he cares about is Ben Carson, all others exist to serve his needs.
Scary.

I’m willing to take him at his word. I think it probably went something like this:

Man sticks gun in Carson’s ribs

Carson (sobbing, snot running down his nose, urine pooling around his shoes): I don’t have any moooney. Please don’t kill me Pleeaaase. I just came in for a three piece snack. All I’ve got is $3, just enough for a three piece. Plllllease don’t kill me. Pleeease. I’m so sorry, I’ll do whatever you want. Just don’t kill me. All I’ve got is three dollars.

Robber: Man, damn. Ben, it’s me. It’s Mike. Big Mike. Ben. It’s just a flashlight calm down, nobody’s trying to hurt you. It’s just jokes ::gestures to the manager:::Hey, can you get my man some water or something. Got any juice? I think his blood sugar’s low. Ben. Ben. You alright? Ben?

Carson (curled up in fetal position, shaking uncontrollably): Don’t killll meee. Pleeeaaase. Pleaaase. Somebody call my mama. Pleeaase

Robber to restaurant manager: Look, this happens sometimes. It’s my bad, I should’ve known. Call this number, ask for Mrs. Carson, and tell her Ben is having one of his spells again.

Popeye’s manager: Okay, but this is the last time I’m dealing with this shit. He can’t come in here again.

I’d like to add that aside that this horrifies me because he’s just a sh*tbag, it also bothers me in particular, being Black, because it sort of reminds me of the whole Black overseer on the plantation scenario.

Just had to throw that out there…

So suggesting a gunman shoot someone else, not you, is the solution?

I’ve had a gun put in my face. You know what you remember? The gun. That’s about it. I was a shift supervisor at a bank in college and I remember exactly nothing else until the event was over and he was gone. He dragged me to the vault assuming I could open it (so the video told me), I couldn’t and he pulled every single teller back there until he found the right one. I will never forget that gun. So BS, Ben.

And as a side note? Go to hell.

The way to stop a bad man with a gun is for a good man to have a pointer finger and another target nearby.

That’s going to be a long-ass NRA bumper sticker

Me, too.

Yep. As I recall, the barrel was about 6" in diameter.

That’s exactly right! Like a gaping hole. I can’t even remember anything else about it.

IF this story is true, Mr. Carson seems to think bravery is siccing a person with a gun on someone else…
