Clearly, some conservatives have lost their way. Situational ethics seems to have crossed over from the Democrats to the Republicans and the conservatives.

This human talks a conservative line, but he’s not, he’s a male queer, and male queers rim and gerbil and spread diseases to little boys. He is tarnishing the decency of normal Americans.

This is a fake news site with canned news content. Set up to look real to convey a leftist agenda.

Do not fall for this, do not let Milo get Alansky-ed

Saul Alinsky’s Rules from Rules for Radicals

Saul Alinsky describes 24 rules in Rules for Radicals. Of those 24 rules, 13 are rules of “power tactics”:

1. “Power is not only what you have but what the enemy
thinks you have.”

2. “Never go outside the experience of your people.”

3. “Wherever possible go outside of the experience of the
enemy.”

4. “Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.”

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

6. “A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.”

7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.”

8. “Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and
actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.”

9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing
itself.”

10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of
operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.”

11. “If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will
break through into its counterside.”

12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive
alternative.”

13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

The remaining 11 rules Alinsky describes are concerned with “the ethics of means and ends”:

1. “One’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s personal interest in the issue … Accompanying this rule is the parallel one that one’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s distance from the scene of conflict.”

2. “The judgment of the ethics of means is dependent upon the political position of those sitting in judgment.”

3. “In war the end justifies almost any means.”

4. “Judgment must be made in the context of the times in which the action occurred and not from any other chronological vantage point.”

5. “Concern with ethics increases with the number of means available and vice versa.”

6. “The less important the end to be desired, the more one can afford to engage in ethical evaluations of means.”

7. “Generally success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics.”

8. “The morality of a means depends upon whether the means is being employed at a time of imminent defeat or imminent victory.”

9. “Any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical.”

10. “You do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral garments.”

11. “Goals must be phrased in general terms like ‘Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,’ ‘Of the Common Welfare,’ ‘Pursuit of Happiness,’ or ‘Bread and Peace.’”

Yiannopoulos questioned age-of-consent laws and suggested that minors as young as 13 were “sexually mature” enough for relations with adults. In it, Yiannopoulos said:

Pedophilia is not a sexual attraction to somebody 13 years old, who is sexually mature. Pedophilia is attraction to children who have not reached puberty. Pedophilia is attraction to people who don’t have functioning sex organs yet who have not gone through puberty.

I've never been comfortable with Milo and if he actually said this then there is no place for him at Breitbart and I completely agree with the Breitbart editors.

The first time I heard of Milo was on Louder With Crowder. He stated unequivocally that gays should NOT be allowed to adopt. He has also outed 3 pedophiles in his columns.

If you're really interested there's this: I Was An Abuse Victim. Laughter Is How I Cope.

Just went over to Breitbart and Milo was nowhere to be found on the home page. Not a pink headline in sight!

I have been entertained by some his handling of fascist and moslem protesters at his speeches, but he is a little too far forward on his faggotry.
We all know he’s gay, got it. But he gets flat disgusting and shouldn’t be at the forefront of things.

To tell you the truth, I don't think his conservative message is strong enough to override his flaming homosexuality.

The two are not compatible enough for him to be successful in spreading a message of one while publicly practicing the other...and screaming bias when either is challenged.

On a personal basis, I avoid homosexuals, male or female.

I do not quote Biblical passages to them, I don't try to convert them...I simply do not wish to engage them and once they try to justify their lifestyle through either political parties outlooks and platforms, I turn away.

Anyone, lib or conservative, that attempts to use what should be a private affair between consenting adults, as a club to further their personal political aims...not for me.

And Milo does just that...he doesn't even keep the club in his back pocket...he comes out swinging it, bashing anything and everything in an attempt to fire up someone, just for the shock effect.

I know I'll get some barbs thrown my way, but I would much rather deal with a conservative that is a homosexual, than a homosexual that is conservative.

As far as liberal and homosexual...I could give a rat's patootie.

I rarely even acknowledge them based on their homo activism...but for a bull dyke such as Rosie O'donut and similar personalities, yeah, I'll throw their perversions right back at them.

Milo seems to have a good conservative mindset, he is very perceptive, a good speaker (when he leaves out the "swish") and he's pretty damned knowledgeable when it comes to Constitutional matters and political factions...but everything he says, he feels it must be painted with homosexual tint, before he says it.

We don't need it.

It's beyond disgusting how this pervert has been adopted by the formerly pro-morality Right. If he's "on our side," then just what does "our side" stand for?

Homosexuality has infiltrated the conservative movement big time. Now conservatives beg for homosexual votes and consider someone like this a "hero."

How much lower can we get?

Milo does not endorse pedophilia. This is just more fake news. CPAC has never been gay friendly. My guess is this whole meme is being pushed by never Trumpers.

Milo has said he hates being a homosexual and wants to not be attracted to men. That he was considering a Christian deliverance therapy to become a heterosexual. He has said transgenderism is a mental illness and opposes gay marriage.

While he is at times peverse in his speaking and it is not what I want to hear, he has done more for conservatism than all you armchair self righteous hyocrits combined. You hate him because his sin is different than yours. If we say we have not sinned, we make him (Jesus) a liar, and his word is not in us. 1 Jn 1:10 Self righteous hypocritical are the biggest sinners of all, they point to others sins so their sins won’t be exposed to the Light. Jn 3:19-21

Universities are the battleground we must win or we will eventually lose politically to the left. The left hate Milo and are cheering your throwing him under the bus, you fool!

At worse he mispoke but as far as I can see in his offending words, he spoke the truth.

Even Rex Tillerson, who may make a fine secretary of state, convinced the Boy Scouts to drop their standards.

Homosexuality is death, both in the spiritual and in the physical aspects of what might have been.

What I heard him say acknowledged pedophilia, but did not endorse it. He later stated that: “I do not support pedophilia. Period. It is a vile and disgusting crime, perhaps the very worst. There are selectively edited videos doing the rounds, as part of a co-ordinated effort to discredit me from establishment Republicans, that suggest I am soft on the subject.”

I oppose homosexual behavior but also oppose spreading untrue information about homosexual individuals. He is a mentally ill individual but not the kind of monster that pedophiles become.

I just wish the queers would treat us conservatives as fairly as I (try to) treat them!

The conservatives just can’t quit taking the bait. This Daily Beast article is quite revealing both about the hard left and the “conservatives” who decline to extend any benefit of the doubt to people who are indeed “not their kind”.
