"I have a quick question," said the attendee, who was wearing a tee shirt of a nearby LGBT community center while the candidate walked down a rope line and greeted supporters. "Do you think I chose to be gay?"

"Did you choose to be gay?" Carson responded.

"Yes, do you think I chose to be gay?" the attendee asked again. "That’s a long conversation," Carson said and repeated as he posed for a photograph with a supporter.

"I think you’re full of s---," his questioner responded, smiling, before walking away. "OK," was Carson's only response as he continued to pose for pictures.

Racists have to be confronted and so do homophobes.
