Following the violent anti-free-speech protests in Berkeley, California last night - sparked by cal's special snowflakes hurt feelings at the potential words that would come out of Milo Yiannopoulos' mouth during a sold-out event - it appears America's curiousity has been piqued.
Sales of Milo's book have increased 12,740% overnight sending it rocketing from 642nd to 5th ranked best-seller on Amazon. Pretty impressive considering the book is not even released until March 14th 2017.
When the book was first announced last year, a twitter storm also sparked panic-buying of the book.

So despite all the best efforts of the liberal intelligentsia to shut down his 'free-speech' last night - hurting the feelings of 600 conservatives who were looking forward to the event - we suspect a lot more than 600 Americans are now about to get a crash course in how Milo thinks.
Up 3,000% now LOL!
The reason someone like Milo is extra dangerous to the left is because as a gay conservative, he can break through to other gays and lesbians who have been told their whole lives that conservatives want to injure/kill them when in fact conservatives don’t care what they do. That in fact is the whole point of conservatism, we don’t care what you do with other consenting adults in the privacy of your home and neither should the government.
It’s a big canard that the left puts forth that everyone has to “accept” you. No, everyone just has to let you be alone to live your life the way you want to live it. Some conservatives may not like your lifestyle, but they don’t have to like it, just allow you the freedom to live that way.
I'm not quite there yet age wise but agree with the rest.
Bears repeating......
Only kidding ;-)

I’d never heard of this guy until President Trump was elected. I watched his interview on Tucker Carlson last night, and was impressed. He’s clearly highly intelligent, logical, articulate, and likable. I’m going to buy his book to find out more about him.
It could happen!
But there IS hope!!!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape... >
So did FR!
