"...But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security..."

WATCH: DR. BENJAMIN CARSON ON FOX DISCUSSES OPPOSITION TO GAY MARRIAGE AND WHY WON'T SPEAK AT COMMENCEMENT(MULTI-VIDEO POST)

Dr. Benjamin Carson, interviewed by Sean Hannity, expresses his views on homosexual marriage.

It went like this:

HANNITY: All right, last question, we have the issue of the Supreme Court dealing with two issues involving gay marriage. I've asked you a lot of questions. I've never asked you that, what are your thoughts?
CARSON: Well, my thoughts are that marriage is between a man and a woman. It's a well-established, fundamental pillar of society and no group, be they gays, be they NAMBLA, be they people who believe in bestiality. It doesn't matter what they are. They don't get to change the definition. So he, it's not something that is against gays, it's against anybody who wants to come along and change the fundamental definitions of pillars of society. It has significant ramifications.
HANNITY: And you know, it's interesting, Justice Sotomayor brought up the issue of polygamy and incest. Where does the definition stop and I guess, we'll be debating it for weeks and months to come.



Apparently, as reported by Rush Limbaugh, Carson was then rejected (by students) from his speaking role at the Johns Hopkins University Commencement.

Here's the video:

 



UPDATE:

Today, Carson apologized for his choice of words.

Here is that video:



In the next video, Ben Carson explains to MSNBC's Andrea Mitchel, that he will refrain from speaking at Johns Hopkins University commencement.
