Cyberstalker Chuck C. Johnson’s latest post is ridiculously funny. Titled, “BUSTED: We Found Who Ben Carson Claimed To Stab.”

Except, he really didn’t.

Johnson quotes a People magazine article from 1991, apparently dug up by his ace research assistant Shannon Knutsen (an article that’s easily Googleable), and writes incoherently, “This new revelation contradicts other claims that Carson has made about he tried to stab a friend Bob.”

Except, it doesn’t contradict anything.

The People magazine article is clear that Ben Carson’s brother was NOT the one he said he tried to stab. The article says Carson went after his brother once with a kitchen knife unsuccessfully, but then goes on to describe another incident in the very next paragraph, the one everyone knows about that’s been in the news, in which the knife was supposedly deflected by his friend’s belt buckle.

These are two completely different situations.

It’s as if Chuck didn’t even read the quote he put in his stupid post. Man, this guy. He’s trying to inject himself into the presidential campaign, but he’s so incompetent he’s posting quotes that debunk his own over-heated silliness.

GotNews​.com can confirm that Ben Carson once tried to stab his brother, Curtis, at least according to a press report from 1991.

Carson’s claim of stabbing a friend was subject to intense media scrutiny last month.

He admitted to Megyn Kelly on Fox News that he actually tried to stab a “close relative.”

This new revelation contradicts other claims that Carson has made about he tried to stab a friend “Bob.”

Here’s that People magazine article, and the quote Chuck apparently couldn’t find time to actually read and understand: The Physician Who Healed Himself First : People.com.

By the time he entered predominantly white Wilson Junior High, he was at the top of his class. Kids who had once teased him and called him “dummy” now asked for his help on homework. But all was not well; Carson repeatedly ran into racial prejudice. On the way to school one day, he and Curtis were confronted by a group of boys armed with sticks. “You know, you n****r kids ain’t supposed to be going to Wilson Junior High,” one told them. “If we ever catch you again, we’re going to kill you.” After that, they took a different route to school. When they joined a neighborhood football league, a group of white adults warned them to stay away—and they did. Carson’s most humiliating experience, though, was in the eighth grade. His teacher publicly berated his white classmates for allowing him, a black, to win an award for outstanding student.

Such incidents only heated up Carson’s already red-hot temper. “I would just fly off the handle, and the only thing that was important to me, if somebody made me mad, was to make them unhappy,” he says. “If that meant hitting them with a rock or a brick or a baseball bat, that’s what I wanted to do.” He opened a three-inch gash in the forehead of a schoolmate who teased him, using the padlock from his locker. He broke the nose of another boy with a rock. He almost punched out his own mother for buying him a pair of pants he didn’t like, but he was stopped by Curtis in the nick of time. And once, during an argument, he unsuccessfully went after Curtis with a kitchen knife.

But the worst blowup took place when he was 14. One day after school, he and a friend were listening to a transistor radio. “He had changed a radio station and I didn’t want it changed,” Carson remembers. “He argued with me, and I grabbed this camping knife and tried to stab him. I was totally irrational. Fortunately, he had a large, metal belt buckle under his clothing, and the knife blade struck it and broke. He fled, and I ran home and locked myself in the bathroom and just started contemplating what would have happened if he had not had that belt buckle on.”
