Milo Suspended Permanently by Twitter Minutes Before ‘Gays For Trump’ Party At RNC
Breitbart ^ | 19 Jul 2016 | Ben Kew

Posted on 07/19/2016 8:37:11 PM PDT by Right Wing Assault

Breitbart Tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos has been suspended from Twitter once more just 20 minutes before his “Gays for Trump” event takes place at the Republican National Convention.

The justification for the suspension is currently unknown, although it could be as a result of Milo’s run-in with Ghostbusters actress Leslie Jones on the site. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey publicly reached out to Jones late on Monday evening following her complaints of “abuse” on the platform.

BuzzFeed are reporting that the suspension is permanent, citing a statement from Twitter promising a clampdown on “targeted abuse.” Milo has also received a message from Twitter confirming that that his ban is permanent, copied below.

In a comment, Milo said “With the cowardly suspension of my account, Twitter has confirmed itself as a safe space for Muslim terrorists and Black Lives Matter extremists, but a no-go zone for conservatives.”

“Twitter is holding me responsible for the actions of fans and trolls using the special pretzel logic of the left. Where are the Twitter police when Justin Bieber’s fans cut themselves on his behalf?”

“Like all acts of the totalitarian regressive left, this will blow up in their faces, netting me more adoring fans. We’re winning the culture war, and Twitter just shot themselves in the foot.”

“This is the end for Twitter. Anyone who cares about free speech has been sent a clear message: you’re not welcome on Twitter.”

Twitter allows all manner of BLM, ROP, Leftist threats that violate their terms, but Milo can’t disagree with someone.

Die Twitter, die!

I’ve never understood why anyone is into Twitter. That said, we need a conservative alternative. I guess.

Sounds like Twitter committed a TORT.

You know, I don’t think they’re going to improve until they are made to pay a very great deal of MONEY.

MONEY, MILO —go for it.

This is getting really outrageous.

Lying beotch. Ghostbusters is going to bomb. Because it looks terrible, the actors aren’t funny, and it has nothing to do with the original Ghostbusters.

OBAMA is EVIL.
HILLARY is EVIL.
TWITTER is EVIL.

Her soul has been hacked.

She needs to be exorcised.

In all seriousness, how do we contact Twitter to express our disapproval?

I don’t have a Twitter account and have no interest in getting one, but how is a private corporation beholden to users who (to my knowledge) don’t even pay a fee?

Cancel your account. I just canceled mine permanently, done with these losers. Only reason they are still in business is they accept all that is evil, terrorists, BLM etc.

He’s a very effective spokesman for western civilization. Check out the speech he gave at Orlando after the Islamic attacker there. Just great.

The way FOX is going, it looks like Ailes may be fired, and there are rumors that he will start his own network, taking some of the better FOX talent with him. Milo would be a perfect on air personality. Want to attract young voters? This guy can do it.

Why is Twitter homophobic?

They fear those who disagree with their little twitts! Leftists always fear what is not far left.

It must be hard for them to hate a gay guy, so they just “erase” him. Something in their brains must be spinning, trying to solve this dilemma. Maybe they will explode overnight! Oh, goodie!

What was the reason for a remake/reboot of Ghostbusters? Anybody know?

why does Hollywood do so many remakes/reboots/sequels/franchises in movies anyway??

In this case, were they wanting to make a political statement with an all girl team of ghost buster fighters???

God help us all, in that case, if our daughters self-esteem and desire to achieve in life, rests on the example set in a fantasy movie.
