I do not know, I just do not know.

God help us!

We are digging ourselves deeper into a pit from which there is no escape.

Morality has always been on our planks, even though some have abused their trust - now these people are praising a reprobate that despises the God of the Bible - but is fine with one of his own creating.

“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many” (Matthew 24:11).

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears” (2 Timothy 4:3).

We have many that want their ears scratched by the latest Milo ‘witticism’ and it is bridging the way for our next generation to openly embrace homosexuals that just happen to talk the talk - even though they know nothing of how to walk the walk.

it’s a show, that’s all. Not saying it’s not legit issues being covered... but he’s a manufactured persona, and at least a good performer.

I think he has always just wanted to be a star, and so far this vehicle is working. Now if he would just stop snorting all the money he earns up his nose, he wouldn’t have to defraud people all the time.

None of this is private info... you can do searches on his businesses in Britain... all of them failed and were closed with tax liens etc. One of the businesses he opened, he and his father switched last names. Milo went from Hanrahan to Yiannopoulos... interesting, no?

I’m saddened that Jim even lets Milo have a presence on this web site . . . I do so hope that he issues a ban on all the Milo-praise. He certainly is NOT praiseworthy.

Milo is a grifter who will say and do whatever he needs to to keep the money coming in. He found a ready-made crowd in conservatives.

Many so-called preachers have raked in tons of money by pushing the right buttons with gullible church-goers.

This is the same thing.

There’s a lot of research that exists on the web about Milo, I think it’s never wise to ban anyone or any news. Better to post it, and comment and critique on it’s validity.

It’s not just Milo that’s milking the Trump win... Look at Cernovich and some of the people he’s promoting.

I realize there are still people here who believe Jack Posobiec is innocent of producing the Rape Melania sign. But I’ve seen the message stream the hoax was created on... so there’s a story Buzzfeed got exactly correct. Also, Cernovich knew he had done this and sent Jack to report on the rape epidemic in Sweden. That’s essentially a big “fu” to anyone who dares to stand up to this crowd of hucksters.

I think I heard Milo mention that he has former Navy SEALs guarding him. I’ll take those guys over the SS any day.

Milo openly defended pedophilia not only in a video but on his FB page.

I don't have a FB page, and of the many Milo videos I've watched, I haven't yet seen the one(s) about pedophilia to which you are referring. I'd like to keep an open mind to what you are saying, so can you please post some links to back your claim?

Not a huge Milo fan. I do enjoy his skewering leftist sacred cows.

Per his facebook page, he doesn’t condone pedophilia in any way. In fact, he’s outed 3 pedophils to receive their just rewards.

This is an obvious hatchet job being done by republicans and now CPAC is no better than UC Berkeley. Alas.

I don’t agree with his lifestyle but think listening to what he says doesn’t make me a degenerate either.

I found an article about this controversy, which, by the way, benefits progressives much more than it helps conservatives, on the DailyMail:

Alt-Right darling Milo Yiannopoulos is BANNED from the CPAC conference after video surfaced which appeared to show him defending pedophilia

And here is Yiannopoulos' defense of what he said:

Much of this was posted on Twitter. The Milo stuff can easily be googled, including using the way back machine to access his old accounts on Tumblr etc. There have been photos of Milo holding Mein Kampf lol as he used to be a fervent admirer of Der Fuehrer. Before he became just alt right, and now alt light. The photos are both headless... but he’s wearing the same shirt in the previous photo, where he’s not holding Mein Kampf. Of course there will be those who will say, it could be almost anyone with the same shirt holding tht book... nevermind these photos were posted on his personal Tumblr.

Are you questioning the info on Posobiec? lol
Sorry, I found it hilarious Cernovich used him to report on rape in Sweden.
There was a screen shot of the same message convo posted on Twitter that included Cernovich’s reaction to Jack and rape Melania... it was another member of the group who posted that screen shot.
Of course Jack pronounced all the screen shots to be fake! The problem of course is if more than one person’s screen shots show the same info, as you know the blue conversation on the right is always from the person who is speaking, and in this case that person didn’t block out the area showing Cernovich’s name and his reaction.
I believe besides Buzzfeed, the other screen shot which was identical but from another persons cell phone was posted on projectpurge.com

As to Milos authorship on anything, check out the twitter account of the young lady @Margaretsbelly who was originally assigned the job of managing the privilege grant... before he snorted the donations.
Margaret is the author of all the Breitbart pieces that Hillary used as examples of his misogyny.

at this point I care zero about what Milo says, after scamming 1/4 mil in donations to his fake charity, he tried to get people to donate to a scammy superpac. Reddit immediately called him out. I’m glad this stuff is all going mainstream now, as the normies will soon figure out just how scammy milo is. I still don’t understand why he’s still around, there was serious talk on finally outing him right after the election.

His issues started a long time ago, with every business venture he’s been involved in. In the past he has used social media, specifically Twitter to go after anyone who dares to criticize him.
Facebook is a more difficult environment, because the community can reply. When the Privilege Grant info first became public he had a difficult time defending himself on fb. The left has literally put him where he is now... so let them have him.

I think everyone should listen to his explanation.

He had his first relationship as a boy of 17 years old by an older man of 29 and it lasted 10 years. He said this happens often with young gay boys (boys meaning the new and younger one).

He had his first sexual experience (which he didn’t approve) at 13 and has always used joking as his way of referring to it. It’s how he deals with things and he apologized because it crossed the line and was inappropriate.

How did he defend pedofilua. He did the opposite.

He said he reported 3 pedofiles and 1 is in court for it.

So plz explain what he said in his FB page where he defended it.
