Ben Carson: Let's roll

  So the latest attempt to discredit Dr. Ben Carson is an assertion that he was mocking the Oregon shooting victims in a conversation on Fox. He said this:
"I would not just stand there and let him shoot me," Carson told "Fox and Friends". "I would say 'Hey, guys, everybody attack him! He may shoot me but he can't get us all."
  The propaganda screamers went into overdrive immediately, claiming that Carson was criticizing the behavior of the victims,  later elaborating on The Kelly File:
I would ask everybody to attack the gunman because he can only shoot one of us at a time. That way, we don't all wind up dead," he told ABC News while chuckling on Tuesday.
"The accusation there, Dr. Carson, is that you appeared tone deaf and that you seemed callous in the laughter about a massacre and what you would have done," Fox News' Megyn Kelly said.
"I'm laughing at them and their silliness," Carson responded.
"Who?" Kelly asked.
"The people asking that question. Of course, you know, if everybody attacks that gunman, he's not going to be able to kill everybody. But if you sit there and let him shoot you one by one, you're all going to be dead," Carson said.
  Look, whether you like Carson or not (I'm a fan), you're living in a fantasy world if you don't understand that something drastic has changed not only in the world but in this country.
  For some reason, Leftists believe that if we just try to get along with murderers that will make them not want to kill us.  
  Witness Obama's capitulation to Iran's demand for the bomb and the Argentinian President's assertion that Obama's team has actually pushed other countries to sell nuclear fuel to Iran.
  I might remind the media that this is the very position Flight 43 found themselves in on 9/11. They knew three other planes went down and realized what was happening was a national terrorist attack.
  At that point, several people including Todd Beamer, decided to rush the terrorists, which is why that plane crashed without damaging any buildings in D.C.
  Remember this:
'From that point,' she says now, 'he said he was going to have to go out on faith because they were talking about jumping the guy with the bomb. He was still holding the phone, but he was not talking to me, he was talking to someone else and I could tell he had turned away. And he said: "You ready. Okay, let's roll."'
'We're all running to first class,' said flight attendant Sandy Bradshaw, implying the rebellion had begun in Bingham's compartment.
  Dr. Carson has been attacked for many positions not the least of which is that he is a black conservative, some of which he brought on himself by his political naivete.
  This attack is ridiculous, as if a man who has spent his life saving and bettering lives wants harm to come to anyone.
  But I interpret his point as this:
  America, get off your fat butts and realize we are at war. Get off your stupid phones and look up. The enemy is coming: we are a house divided. Only if we stand together to rush the enemy will we survive. 
  This is Ben Carson's call: Let's roll, America. 
  They'll take us down one by one if we aren't willing to fight back.
