Dr. Ben Carson on Gun Control following the OR shooting.

http://www.wfaa.com/story/news/politics ... /73370350/

A few interesting quotes:
1:
the lesson of the nation's latest mass shooting isn't to enact more limits on guns but to consider whether gun-free zones actually may be drawing shooters.
2:
Carson endorsed expanding efforts to identify and treat the mentally ill before they commit acts of violence.
3:
He also suggested it might make sense to arm kindergarten teachers, and he rejected as wrong-headed proposals to restore the ban on military-style assault weapons.
4:
While Carson once supported the idea of banning assault weapons and armor-piercing ammunition, he says he changed his mind after he read more about the history of tyranny....

...Asked whether many Americans worried less about the threat from the government and more about the threat of fellow citizens armed with assault rifles, Carson replied: "You need to be able to protect yourself from both."
