Which constituency to you believe Carson wishes to speak to with his theories about the Holocaust and homosexuality?

couldn't access that link for some reason--is BBC down?
Found another source for similar story: http://www.theguardian.com/law/2015/...de-court-rules
Anyway, the distinction is with 'Armenian holocaust denial. That one is not prohibited speech, like the denying the nazi one is in some places.
Criminalizing hate speech is always tricky, and is likely to lead to funny rulings.

Carson more than implies that, because European Jews failed to avail themselves of the mystical magical power of the mere posession of firearms to somehow avert opression in the onslaught of overwhelming paramilitary/ military force, their fate was thus self inflicted.

He certainly does.
He also more than implies that gay men (and presumably women) are made, not born, and made through the experience of sexual trauma.
What a repugnant man!

No where do I read that Carson implies that that their fate was self inflicted.
Carson made a general statement that gun control made the holocaust easier.
His argument, albeit not deep, was not malicious nor impugn the Jews.
