Technically, this is not a gaffe but simply another example of his willingness to mindlessly repeat just about any idea that right-wingers manage to implant in his head. I'll let Politifact take it from here:
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/oct/09/ben-carson/ben-carson-says-mahmoud-abbas-ali-khamenei-vladimi/
Now, I know from experience that certain posters here will immediately discount this because Politifact is a Marxist, Kenyan, Islamic, Democratic Party front organization. But, I'd like to remind those posters of how much they loved Politifact when it declared that Obama was responsible for the lie of the year. |

| Politifact also said that Ayers was 'just another guy in the neighborhood'. So they are saying the same... |

| And he did not gaffe re: guns/Nazis. He was 100% correct. |

You seriously think that if the Jews had guns the Holocaust wouldn't have happened? Have you been power watching "Rambo" and "Red Dawn" again? Well organized military troops vs. armed, untrained individuals does not go well for the armed, untrained individuals. |

He did gaffe. The Jews in poland had everything from guns to flamethrowers. They got crushed. |

QED, the Warsaw ghetto uprising. |

And yet....the feds backed down when faced with our own militia. Unless you are suggesting that our own government is planning an uprising and ethnic cleansing? I know Obama is hoping he can accomplish this, but that damn pesky congress keeps getting in his way.... |

You are grossly misguided and seriously mistaken on your assessment of why the feds backed down from Bundy. If they had wanted to do something as truly bizarre (but which apparently somehow makes some kind of deranged sense in your warped mind) as executing Cliven Bundy, they would have done so, militia or no. The only reason there were Clark County SWAT officers was for the BLM's protection, since they had gotten wind of the fact that Cliven Bundy put out a call for crazies to come and point guns at the BLM while they rounded up cattle. Killing Bundy or shooting anyone was never their intent. NEVER. They were only there to round up trespassing cattle and to serve Bundy with a court order. PERIOD. END OF STORY. No "militia" needed. |

| ^ No doubt the Cliven Bundy fan above is also one of the ones who earnestly believed in Jade Helm as an invasion of Texas, who believes in FEMA death camps and other nonsense. Paranoid delusional. Please, go see a shrink, PP. |

And that's the ones who were willing to fight. Most Jews wouldn't have fought. They didn't know what was happening. Hindsight's perfect. But at the time most thought they were being relocated. They didn't know they were going to be killed. And while the systematic discrimination, like being forced to wear the star, give up jobs, exclusion from universities etc was bad, no one realized how bad it was going to get. They wouldn't have used guns even if they'd had them. Claiming otherwise is revisionist history. |

| It would be great if Carson and Biden got the nominations. The campaign will be dubbed The Big Gaffe Off. |

And there is the insidiousness - you can't get someone to disarm if they believe, for a second, that extermination could occur. So tell me again why we should have national registration here? Because we don't believe that this type of extermination could occur? Look at some of these threads and the words of progressives. Conservatives are called treasonists, racists, insane,etc. And then you want us to give up our weapons. HAHAHAHAHHAHAAA. |

Was that the excuse for the armed raid at the Gibson Guitar factory? There was a militia there as well? Nope. There was not.... |
