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.

Many years ago a friend ran a T group for gays. He determined that all gay guys are “bad boys” looking to be outrageous. Such is Milo, a genius, but clearly a bad boy.

I didn't read one of them but it was something about a Gay Brit doing more for US conservatism than anyone else in the last 30 years. Right. No wonder he has some fans here. He's the face of a certain type of conservatism. Little did I know.
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I do not quote Biblical passages to them, I don't try to convert them...I simply do not wish to engage them and once they try to justify their lifestyle through either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.
Obviously, he needs attention more than he needs to promote the best policies and ideas. He’s more about épater les bourgeois than about conservative ideas and ideals. What could be more shocking than a gay right wing Catholic. He’s got a niche market. And his throwing in some vague comments about pedophilia no doubt was more about shocking people than anything else. At the end of the day he’s been hoisted on his own petard.
I have no personal knowledge of having a baby, but I think I and other men can speak intelligently about it.
‘Milo shot himself’. Couldn’t agree more. As to whether he will now go liberal.. I doubt it. Regardless of his orientation, he still appears to be conservative in views on free speech and other matters of the Constitution, as well as fiscal policies and border control. Also, I doubt the left would take him, after his contribution to the loss of Hillary.
Who knows, he may survive this and rise again, in another form.. a writer or pundit.
Note: When a person makes a living talking, a lot of words are put out there and if you are being hunted, it won’t be long before some of those words are used as weapons against the speaker.
He got in trouble for the pedophile aspect. Apparently, that’s still taboo enough that most conservatives reject it, though some here prefer to believe he didn’t or wouldn’t say those things. Why he has so much credibility is beyond me.
I think it would be beyond Andrew too.
Rarely read it anymore. Just isn’t the same since he died.
Because it was a coordinated hit piece. The 5 or so minute video was a selective edit of a two hour radio show interview. Didn’t anyone find it odd that all of these “news” outlets decided to run with the story on the same day. Milo is Milo but he is dangerous to the Dems because he does not fit their narrative about the way that a right leaning person should be.
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?

We’re being asked to define deviancy down to gain power.
Apparently not anymore.
I know. Some of these people feel more loyalty to Milo and Putin than they do to their putative principles, which apparently are malleable.
...and they wonder why conservatives aren’t heard on college campuses. Christ said we’re ALL sinners. Sometimes here on FR it’s as though many think they’re not, they then don’t get why the country moves away from them.
Milo is a megaphone in the conservative void that is the college campus....yeah, let’s abandon him when he’s been very clear about the age-of-consent, pedophiles, gay marriage, etc..
The lack of understanding and forgiveness on FR is sometimes disturbing. We’re at war and many still think that unless somebody is “perfect” we shouldn’t support them. Wow, what a way to lose.
You're right. We're at war with, among other things, homosexuality.
The Brock piece was a time machine back to a pretty dour time in the history of American presidents...
As for Milo’s next trick, I will end by quoting Yoda.. ‘Difficult to see, the future is.’
Christ also wanted us to repent. It’s really one of the most important things he preached. Milo seems want to wallow in sin. He doesn’t seem contrite. He seems proud of his failings. He makes it his most common topic. And he’s hardly generous or forgiving with others. If he wants to be taken serious as a Christian, he should be a Christian first and shun the sins he trivializes.
Thanks for making my point for me. So you’re one of those that believes if somebody has same-sex attractions they can’t be saved? That they’re automatically “the enemy”? Wrong! Do you think Christ would consider him an enemy?
Unfortunately, on today’s campuses, if Milo were straight his serious messages would never have reached the massive audience it has. The left wants him destroyed and you’re doing their work for them.
Has it occurred to you that maybe God is using him? What is your great contribution?
