Republican presidential candidate has made waves in March when he made several ignorant and hurtful statements on the topic of homosexuality:
Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon and potential Republican presidential candidate, said Wednesday that “a lot of people who go into prison straight, and when they come out they’re gay.”
The remarks were made on CNN’s “New Day” in response to a question from host Chris Cuomo, who asked if Carson thought being gay was a “choice.”
“Absolutely,” Carson replied.
Needless to say, those comments did not go over well. At a Staten Island town hall, one unidentified voter confronted Ben Carson about his remark:

Full of shit, indeed! No worries though. The way his campaign is going, he’ll soon be off the campaign trail, no desire feeling a sudden urge to spend more time with his family.
