Sacramento, California (CNN)It's a recent Friday night in downtown Sacramento, and there's a man in a hotel lobby wearing a fur vest and sunglasses. He has a British accent.
A line of college-age fans stretches out the door.
They're waiting for autographs and selfies. Some are wearing "Make America Great Again" caps.
"Milo I love you! Oh my god, thank you -- I love what you do," says one woman to the man in the fur vest.
"Thank you for what you're doing," says another college student wearing a Donald Trump hat.
The subject of their adulation is not a rock star or a crusading politician but Milo Yiannopoulos, 32, an outspoken editor for the far-right Breitbart News. He's on a flamethrowing tour of college campuses -- including an event Wednesday night at UC Berkeley that was canceled after protests became violent -- and has made it his goal to take on the traditionally left-leaning college establishment.
"I just want to burn it down," Yiannopoulos said in an interview last month with CNN. "I am speaking on college campuses because education ... is really what matters. It's a crucible where these bad ideas are formed. Bad ideas like ... progressive social justice, feminists, Black Lives Matter ... that I think is so cancerous and toxic to free expression."

that could be fun on twitter. The leftists can dish it out, even if not true, but they cannot handle the same, when back at them.
Milo is awesome, it’s just you posted an article from the home of fake news. That maybe why people are questioning it.
If you have time checkout some of the YouTube videos of his campus events. Liberals find him breathtaking, and scary.
CNN does, however, capitalize Allah.
Later
You notice he’s wearing a flak jacket now, right? I get the sense that he’s upped his game ;’}
Yep...Tells a lot, huh????
My 20 year old son is a fan as well. He’s a sophomore at a very liberal college. I give Milo credit for convincing my son to vote for Trump. I did my best at swaying him in that direction, but, well, I’m old. :) Milo says things to young people in a way that cuts through the liberal propaganda.
He is a great danger to the Democrat machine as he takes that element of hiding behind this social issue and exposes how harmful actual Democrat policies and actions are. It’s great to have Milo opening a lot of people’s eyes to their fascist ways.
Says it all...
Speak the truth Milo !
I don’t click on CNN links. Do they give any examples of what’s in his speech that is so hateful?
Does anyone knows if the Oxford Debates brings riots to its campus?
CNN. Enough said.
Hate speech has been cool on campuses for a long time. My local UC campus UCSC hired that racist, ignorant, one time fugitive, accessory to murder Angela Davis as a full time tenured professor.
And Berkeley is trying to convince colleges that rioting and destruction of property is cool.
Can’t help but notice the writer never quite gets around to substantiating the “hate speech” slur. That’s a pretty strong term to put in a title without backing it up.
Basically no, they don’t. They quote him as saying that feminism is for the unattractive. And they quote a quip where he said if you hug a Muslim and feel a bulge it’s probably a bomb. That’s about it.
You’d think if Milo were truly a big hate monster they’d be able to rattle off some truly damning quotes. But somehow in these sorts of pieces they never quite can.
Only hate speech comes from the left.
The technique of the artificial term “hate speech” politically charged non-hyphenated word meant to change people’s thinking.
Speech has always been unfettered in America. Limits are actually forbidden for government to regulate by our Bill of Rights.
When the left wants to destroy America, then flag burning becomes speech and is protected by their courts. When the left wants to destroy America free speech they do not agree with becomes hate speech and they want unconstitutional laws to forbid it.
The leftist government funded educational indoctrination centers are their theater and only their theater. They created the artificial economies to hatch these indoctrination centers, no one else may speak there.
