Employees at Breitbart News are reportedly prepared to leave the company if controversial senior editor Milo Yiannopoulos is not fired.
Another senior editor at the publication told Washingtonian Monday that "at least a half dozen" employees are prepared to leave to organization because of remarks Yiannopoulos made about pedophilia that gained attention this weekend.
“The fact of the matter is that there’s been so many things that have been objectionable about Milo over the last couple of years, quite frankly. This is something far more sinister,” the senior editor said.
“If the company isn’t willing to act, there are at least half a dozen people who are willing to walk out over it.”

Let them walk. I have heard Milo on this subject and he has made no bones about. He HATES pedophiles and has said so in no uncertain terms. He was abused at 13. This is an attempt by the left to rid themselves of someone the fear. Don’t let them do it.
The real target is not Milo.
It’s Bannon, and of course Trump.
I didn’t defend him I posted a link to his response.
Breitbart purports to have a strong and public morality. Milo advocates or has advocated homosexual pedoplelia. They have rather glorified his homosexuality so will this be a bridge too far.
I admit I have no admiration for the drama queen but he does certainly have a right to free speech so long as he isn’t an advocate for criminal activity.
Milo is no hero or a proper spokesman of the right. Being cozy with him still won’t win the GOP the gay vote and quite frankly, the GOP doesn’t need it to win elections.
Weird to see The Hill and The Blaze reporting the same story....about Breitbart employees.....
Then again....maybe not. Birds of feather, and all.
The Issue is never the issue; the Issue is the Revolution.
NeverTrump - amazing they still exist - has forged with OFA.
Not a problem, this was foreseen, and I hope Sessions’ indictments entrap a shitton of them. That’s why they’re screaming.
The sad thing about this is that these folks just discovered the Milo was a homosexual. He is telling a truth about his life and this conflicts with the “Will & Grace” lies that Hollywood spins out. Breitbart loved this guy when he was causing the “right” sort of trouble, but now all of the sudden they have to deal with the reality of a human being. Milo is telling a deep truth about the connection between older men and boys in the homosexual community. And, frankly we are on the path for this crap to be legalized, because no one is willing to deal with this honestly. It is just part of the homosexual - sexualization process. And, our society has completely stuck its head in the ground about this, and the result is that when someone dares to utter the truth, “Off with their head.” Well, thats the way it goes.
The world of PC realities verses real realities. This sucks for Milo because in point of fact, he has been betrayed for being himself. Now, it was “unwise” to the extreme saying what he said, but this is the very thing that Breitbart put him forward to do. “Just say anything.”
This is an Alinsky attack, and for that reason alone Breitbart has to retain him. Then they have to deal with the fact they have been fronting him. This is done by dealing openly with how each new generation of homosexuals comes into being. It isn’t “born that way.” That is a huge lie and people keep it up by trashing the guys like Milo who actually start explaining how they got to where they are.
It isn’t going to be pretty. It isn’t pretty. But, thats how we got here in a society that has no clue what truth even looks like. Making ugly things pretty enough for folks to forget that they are ugly. If those folks want to walk out.. I guess they need to go. Milo will have to do his own soul searching, but in the end, this dose of reality might be the very best thing for him. A chance to step back and reconsider some things, and perhaps make some better choices.
I pray for his soul. Milo has to be told, and acknowledge that “no, this isn’t a good idea.” And, then he needs to share his story and come to grips with the world that lied to him. Then he can talk about the LAWS that prevent him from seeking any assistance and prevent any provider of assistance from helping him with dealing with the trauma he has started to share. These are hideous times.
Great post.
Bannon has set his own traps, too.
Any and every group needing DJT to bring the hammer down on the Left has set their own traps.
It’s what we do in a de-COUP.
What is the right thing in this case?
Have you noticed the Dem’s have gone dark since the Comey meeting.
His interview:
“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. Who are too young to be able (unclear and cut off by others)…That’s not what we are talking about. You don’t understand what pedophilia is if you are saying I’m defending it because I’m certainly not.”
This is rational and fair. I will point out that Glenn Reynolds at "Instapundit" posted this information over at his website.
That being said, I have never been comfortable with homosexuals in the conservative movement. My position is that there is something mentally ill with them right off the bat.
As it does to me.
They dump Milo, I dump Breitbart.

What’s your take on this?
If this is anything like the great FBI resignation story he has got nothing to worry about
Better they go and Milo stay!
