Agreed but that's where you have to ask him if he believes in overriding the will of the people for what he believes in. After all, even Levin and Stabenow are often forced to vote against what they personally want because they know the people want something else and Michigan is a pro gun state.

Actually, they are more than questionable. They are outright unconstitutional.

Asked by Beck for his thoughts on the Second Amendment, Carson gave the popular pro-gun argument: “There’s a reason for the Second Amendment; people do have the right to have weapons.”

But when asked whether people should be allowed to own “semi-automatic weapons,” the doctor replied: “It depends on where you live.”

“I think if you live in the midst of a lot of people, and I’m afraid that that semi-automatic weapon is going to fall into the hands of a crazy person, I would rather you not have it,” Carson elaborated.

However, if you live “out in the country somewhere by yourself” and want to own a semi-automatic weapon, he added, “I’ve no problem with that.”
