No bias there from the homophobic left.

Liberals are always for free speech, so long as it is speech they agree with.

Just like they are all for respecting the will of the electorate, so long as the electorate votes in a manner of which they approve.

They define hypocrisy on a daily basis.

I’m about as far right as one can get both fiscally and socially....but I just love Milo...

I’m disappointed that TRUMP didn’t put him somewhere in the Administration.

But Milo is a one man campaign for the Constitution in our schools...and may the Lord Bless Him for that.

...Liberals are always for free speech, so long as it is speech they agree with....

A basic Democrat tactic is to silence the opposition and other critics. When that fails, the next step is to destroy them through false accusations, character assassination, rumor, economic warfare, boycott, and often, violence.

I certainly do not detect any bias here and no sense of humor either.

“notorious alt-right news platform Breitbart that is favored by white nationalists”

Those who demand that they be tolerated should give tolerance as an example.

Better for him to operate independently and not be tied down in the DC swamp.

Remember who their audience is. The left’s writing style includes an opening that lets their braindead followers know who they are supposed to hate on deep intellectual grounds and why (they’re RACIST! etc). I’ve noticed this pattern for years.

HuffPo’s Claire Fallon is an anti-Semitic homophobe!
