Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson responded to CNN anchor Don Lemon’s claim about white men being a threat to America, on “Fox & Friends” Thursday, and called the statement absurd. “You know, we have a history of dividing people into different segments and that has caused a lot of problems in the past. And we’ve paid big prices for that. But let’s don’t sweep it under the rug,” Carson said. “Let’s acknowledge it, but let’s learn from it and move in a positive direction, not a negative direction.” Lemon claimed white men are “the biggest terror threat in this country,” during an appearance on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” Monday night, and said America has a ban on Muslims, but no “white guy ban.” Carson was asked if he agreed with Lemon and said, “Of course not. That’s ridiculous.”
