Baltimore Black Church Kicks Ben Carson Off Their Property (08/01/2019)

Isn't it mannerly to ask permission first before setting up a photo op on somebody's property?

Ben Carson is apparently doing whatever it takes to defend his boss, even if it means embarrassing himself in the process.
According to The Atlantic , the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development was setting up for a press conference in front of Morning Star Baptist Church of Christ in Baltimore, Maryland, but that was quickly shutdown before he and his crew were reportedly told to get off the property.
Gregory Evans , who is a member of the church for more than 50 years, pondered over why Carson or his team never asked for permission to be at the church.
“Why did someone come onto church property without permission? This community needs some support on all kinds of issues—on dilapidated housing and everything else,” he told the online magazine. “All of a sudden you’re going to show up on our property and not even ask permission to be here?”
Evans continued, “He’s using it as a photo op to make it look like they are doing something.”
Carson acknowledged that he was required to vacate the church’s grounds and complained on camera.
“It’s a church!” he told CBS Baltimore after the incident. “They say, ‘Get off my property.’ A church! … This is the level to which we have sunk as a society.”
Carson, similarly to Donald Trump , also insulted Baltimore by revealing that when he worked in the city he was afraid to send kids home to “where there were rats, roaches, mice, and ticks. Where there was just an unabated lead problem that was having devastating effects on the mental development of young people.”
He then brought it back to his religious beliefs, “Somehow — I guess that’s how God works — I ended up as the Secretary of HUD and we can actually deal with these issues.”
This is just the latest stumble in the Trump Administration’s attempts to clean up his racist comments about Baltimore. Earlier this week, a pastor publicly refused an invitation to the White House to speak with the president about his city. Trump had previously turned down a visit to Baltimore at the last minute for unknown reasons. In addition, Trump has never visited Baltimore while president.

First time I used Fetch. Worked for everything except for the content. I got something weird instead of the article.
Anyway.... this is what struck me the most:
Oh, yeah? Then how about doing something instead of talking to God? God is probably listening but telling you that he gave you a brain so fucking use it!
Well, i'd say good for the God Damned Church ,
but maybe, in a different configuration of words meaning something similar, but, i gotta B me, cause no one else wants to do me, or is it B me, cause i'm on A list

When you encounter an article that Fetch cannot process it is better to inform me directly so that I can inspect it. I will not necessarily notice comments like this.
In this case, the problem is that BET (for whatever reason) tags its advertisement as article content but the actual content of the article is tagged generically. In short, BET encodes its articles the exact opposite of the standard. Garbage in, garbage out.
Ok, thanks, Tig. I didn't consider it a big deal because I know how to cut and paste
I continue to test sites against Fetch because the exceptions are abundant. Very few sites do a good job of following existing standards so Fetch is constantly trying to deal with strange practices. In this case, however, BET is so screwed up that there is nothing Fetch can do other than look for articles from BET and process them as its own special case (custom code); not something we are going to do.
RED BOX RULES APPLY
NO OFF TOPIC COMMENTS ABOUT PRESIDENT OBAMA. COMMENTS ABOUT DR CARSON AND TRMP ARE ACCEPTABLE
In the foyer of his house, Carson has a large portrait of him with Jesus.
Delusions of grandeur.
Apparently Ben Carson has no problem with Jesus being black.
I wonder how his White Evangelical fan club feels about this?
Sometimes, they treat him like he is black..
De Jesus Christ,
not Ben silly phish
After he be booted from Baltimore, Ben headed
back to Dover De. where he was forced to take it back. Sided with the wrong church, as he screamed at the Lord, "Oh God, oh God"
Who, with a lightning bolt fast reply, responded "Why, Why, butt, and cause, just like in Rome, or Ben in Dover....do it till they're done, calling you Rover"
Over and Over
and Thank GOD cuz, i'm OUT !
Gotta see if i can buy myself back into the local Church, that i'm currently Flagged at, but, i think it's a checkered flag, so it matches my past, and i guess i Won, for best reason to Flag, if only they didn't self serve me so much Wine, i'd remember what that reason was, but don't worry, i never do
Why is Jesus in a bathrobe ?
I thought he had his own store...J Crew
It was two for one massage day at the We Never Rub You The Wrong Way day spa.
Religious delusions at that. But some people actually think god talks to them, so Dr. Carson is not alone in his delusions.
Considering this happened nine months ago I think he is over it.
or had an abortion

"Isn't it mannerly to ask permission first before setting up a photo op on somebody's property?"
And here I thought it was "Gods Welcoming of ALL Property" !
Who knew it wasn't !
I get it NOW !
"Separation of Church and State", is actually "Fluid", depending on the churches and/or others leanings ?
Doesn't bod well for "Religion" now.....does it (Which should make the "Left" Happy)?
Carson is a Seventh Day Adventist. So, why didn't he set up in front of his own church? Because SDA do not approve of earthly politics interfering with congregants spiritual lives. Carson may have been a passable neurologist but he knows nothing about managing a federal department like Housing and Urban Development. Hell, Carson us philosophically opposed to the mission of the department he runs. That is how F'd up Trumpism is. Trumpers came to DC to interfere with the proper functions of government. Thank Goodness we can dump Trump in November...
He wishes "passable". He has been sued at least 8 times for malpractice.
His only claim to glory was separating conjoined twins who were joined at the head? Is that correct?
Other than that there hasn't been a whole lot said or written about his brilliant medical career
Well he does know how to spend money decorating an office.
Maybe he will a brilliant interior decorating career when he leaves Washington
Not to mention unqualified and/or experienced for the position. Ben Carson for HUD makes about as much sense (as in not at all) as VP Pence, whose idea of curing disease is to pray it away, as head of the Covid Task Force. F'd up indeed.
To be fair, when did government ever function "properly?"
He has lost is mind.
