Edited sentence: "  In February 2015, the SPLC removed his name and apologized to Dr.In October 2014, Carson was added to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC)'s extremist watch list because (according to the SPLC's page on him), he made comments including: "as far as marriage is concerned, that has traditionally been between a man and a woman, and nobody should be able to change that".In response he stated "When embracing traditional Christian values is equated to hatred, we are approaching the stage where wrong is called right and right is called wrong.It is important for us to once again advocate true tolerance.It is nothing but projectionism when some groups label those who disagree with them as haters.That means being respectful of those with whom we disagree and allowing people to live according to their values without harassment
