"It is important for us to once again advocate true tolerance," the retired neurosurgeon said in a statement. "That means being respectful of those with whom we disagree and allowing people to live according to their values without harassment."
Further, said Carson, the nation is approaching the stage where "wrong is called right" at a time "when embracing traditional Christian values is equated to hatred" and "it is nothing but projectionist when some groups label those who disagree with them as haters."
By naming Carson to its list, the SPLC includes him along with former Ku Klux Klan leader and Louisiana politician David Duke and numerous KKK members, neo-Nazis, white supremacists and more.

He is on the wrong side of the fence. Doesn't anyone remember the civil rights movement?
ReplyDeleteHow very sad that people who have views that differ from the liberals are not tolerated.
ReplyDeleteHe's not saying he would punish those who have a lifestyle he doesn't agree with. He's only expressing his belief that it is wrong.
So why no tolerance?
Yes, what does that have to do with Homo rights? How about I wanted the right to rape my dog, would that also equate? Perversion is not a right it is a sickness. Guess I'm on the list also, so be it.
ReplyDeleteHey, he's not trying to stop anyone from living the way the want to nor tell them how to live, nor is he making any legislation to force anyone's lifestyle.
ReplyDeleteAll he is doing is freely expressing his opinions and giving us his reasons for having those beliefs.
Last I checked, that is all okay under the First Amendment.
Say something as fact long enough and people start believing it. Truth will prevail in the end, though.
ReplyDelete1:53 That is exactly why I classify the SPLW as a hate group. They work diligently to take away the first amendment rights of people under the pretense of 'extremism'.
ReplyDeleteIt's alarming.
