All is not well at Breitbart News.
A senior editor at the right-wing publication tells Washingtonian that “at least a half-dozen” employees are prepared to leave the company if Milo Yiannopoulos is not promptly fired. A second Breitbart source confirms this estimate.
Yiannopoulos, himself a senior editor at Breitbart, was booted from his speaking slot at this week’s Conservative Political Action Convention (CPAC), following taped revelations in which he appears to endorse pedophilia.

The man was a blatant homo and possible pedo. He wasn’t MY spokes fag.
Foolishness. Did you not see how he was tearing the leftist Nazis a new one? How he cut right through their political correct garbage? They showed their true colors in California where they rioted, looted, and assaulted any deemed a Republican in the area. This was never about his homosexuality. Who cares if he is gay or not. He spoke for us and treated the left as we wish our politicians would act.
Instead we primarily have a bunch of pansies that go along with the PC nonsense.
Homo yes, pedo no. And who are you to judge one man’s sin for another? How many of our politicians are adulterers, liars, arrogant, sexually immoral, lustful, greedy, etc Romans 1.
To support all the other politician and speakers but to throw him out, I am sorry but that is no better than the PC hypocrisy of the left.
Perhaps you are gay.
As for me, his sophistries and antics are not what appeals to me. Some people want an appeal to intellect (say, a book by Russell Kirk) and not homoerotic diarrhea of the mouth and épater la bourgeoisie.
Actually, I am not. I do not defend homosexuality. I’ve seen the destructive nature it and other sin has had on people. For instance, the last woman I dated turned out to be a lesbian. I did love her and prayed a lot that she would turn away from that lifestyle to no avail. I also watched several friends in elementary-high school turn to that lifestyle.... and saw how the sin warped them to the point I didn’t even really know them anymore.
I’ve been accused of several times due to the fact that I am nearly 30 and still a virgin. Jesus still has me beat by about 5 years (+2000 some extra after resurrection). so I am not too worried about that. Either I’ll find the right god fearing woman, or I won’t.
Good luck. In the meantime their is always Thailand.
Curious, are you a Christian? That is a rather mean thing to say and certainly not something one Christian should say to another.
If you’re not, fine. Christ said “This is My command to you: Love one another. If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first.” Also, to note salvation is a free gift to all who trust and believe in Christ. Romans 10:9-10 sum that up nicely: “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”
Our "conservatism" still includes Biblical traditional family structure, somewhere near that of old-order Mennonites in the way we rear and educate our children.
It is not Mennonite directly, because we are not uniformitarian in dress and colors, etc., and we are not Mennonite in doctrine (although some of our doctrine might over lap). We are Baptist. Yet, some times we are asked if we are Mennonite.
But "conservatives" have called us unpatriotic because we firmly and openly oppose the conscription of women and any registration for that potential purpose. We openly and firmly oppose any mandatory national service scheme that would require women to leave their homes.
In the thinking of many so-called "conservatives" today, women who stay home and raise seven or eight children to be disciplined, non-statist, God-fearing, hard-working, no-welfare-taking, Constitution-savvy citizens is unpatriotic. We believe that such a woman is performing a very great national service. Perhaps some of the boys in such a family will turn up to be the next generation's West Point graduates, statesmen, and TRUE conservative leaders.
Clearly, "conservatism" today hardly speaks to sound Christian traditional family structure or any over-all morality that that entails.
I can understand that. He is my type of sarcasm and disdain for political correctness though. I really hate seeing us lose another strong and effective voice.
I am not familiar with Russell Kirk, but I did give him a look. My background is in History and Geography, so I’ll certainly have to read some of his work in the future.
So Christians can’t go to Thailand? Who knew?
The link is on Burke's writing. I don't know the author, and I assume he posts here. Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France became a seminal book in the modern conservative movement.

Hmm, I may actually owe you an apology. It seems Milo’s antics were a bit worse than I knew. Some of the original stuff may have been sarcasm, but after finding some of the other comments.... I am not sure how that would have been sarcasm. It would have been nice to see him become a Christian but retain his firebrand attitude. In the end, the wages of sin are death. In his case, a political and financial death.
I wrote my senior paper on the horrors of the French Revolution, so I am rather familiar with reading Burke. I would never condone that type of rampant anarchy by either side.
(And one excellent recommend by me is “The Road to Serfdom” by Friedrich Hayek. Make sure to check that one out if you haven’t)
McShame enables our enemies by attacking our fighters on the front lines of the political war we are in, you are just like him. What we should congratulate you for working against us?
This is a fake news site. We discussed it yesterday.
There are fake news sites out there to amplify the leftist voice,
This is one of them
perhaps we need to put this on the list of banned sites?
At the end of the day, Mr. Yiannopoulos’s words got him in trouble. We can blame the neo-cons, fake news sites, George Soros, the man in the moon, etc. Or we can do something rarely done today; we can accept that he’s an adult responsible for his own words. I know it’s novel to that today, but it’s what I’d suggest.
He is an adult and has taken responsibility.
However we do not have to be manipulated by the leftist media in the process.
What about him has you so enamored? Is it his deep thoughts?
