Quote from the HN guidelines:<p>&quot;Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they&#x27;re evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they&#x27;d cover it on TV news, it&#x27;s probably off-topic.&quot;<p>Much as I would love to discuss Mr. Carson and his view on guns and history, I don&#x27;t think HN is the right place to do so. Sorry :-(
