This is absurdly ironic. Or ironically absurd.
We have a man running for president who claims he has a violent past that included attempted murder, and the media are trying to prove he didn't have a violent past.
It would be like Bill Clinton saying, "I did have sex with that woman!" and Dan Rather saying, "Pics, or it didn't happen."
That being said---I'm not saying I believe Carson---but I do know it's possible for a young person to have some severe anger management problems and then later on "grow" out of them either with time or prescription meds. And if the incidents aren't well-known, if his parents kept it to themselves, etc., it's possible there wouldn't be any tangible evidence.
I personally know someone whom I saw pick up a big rock, and, in a rage, go after another person with every intent of harming that person. It was never videoed, never reported, never posted on FB, etc. So it is possible for it to have happened and not left a trace.
