Republican presidential nominee Ben Carson weighed in once again on the Umpqua Community College shooting, writing in his Facebook Q&A Monday night that he had operated on victims of gun violence but he "never saw a body with bullet holes that was more devastating than taking the right to arm ourselves away."

In response to one supporter who asked him if his stance on the Second Amendment changed following the shooting in Oregon, Carson wrote, "I grew up in the slums of Detroit. I saw plenty of gun violence as a child. Both of my cousins were killed on the streets. As a doctor, I spent many a night pulling bullets out of bodies."

He went on to admit that while the violence is breathtaking, taking away our right to bear arms would be more devastating than any body he's operated on.

"There is no doubt that this senseless violence is breathtaking - but I never saw a body with bullet holes that was more devastating than taking the right to arm ourselves away," Carson added, according to CNS News.

He pointed out part of the reason why America finds itself in its current situation is because of the absurd belief that someone willing to execute Christians one by one would obey new gun laws.

"Serious people seek serious solutions. The Left would prefer to use these tragedies to advance a political agenda. To me, that is also devastatingly sad. The Left would have you believe that a man that asked Christians to stand up (and then executed them one by one) would obey 'new gun laws'. That kind of logic explains many of the problems we find ourselves in today," he concluded.

Previously he stated gun laws should focus on the "crazies" out there responsible for the mass shootings, according to NBC News.

"You're not going to handle [the issue] with more gun control because gun control only works for normal law abiding citizens, it doesn't work for crazies," he said.
