An evangelical Christian on the side of the gay guy? Now I've seen everything.

I noticed how you evaded the only point of this post, and that is the absolute intolerance of liberals on college campuses not just students but faculty and administrators as well. Liberalism used to be about the exchange of ideas and free speech. No more. A lot of what I see is absolute intolerance and a fascist attitude toward those with whom they disagree.

Are you kdding? Although I don't agree with everything Milo says I love him in general and think he's doing a great service and he's an excellent provocateur. I've pointed out on here many times how college campuses by and large are utterly intolerant of minority viewpoints. Milo isn't new to me. I've known about him for a couple years now, seeing him on the Joe Rogan Show and the Rubin Report and other places.

But that said, if he didn't stand where he does politically evangelicals would despise him.

Which is exactly why the left is using violence to shut his free speech down.

You have a very narrow, naïve View of evangelicals, perhaps even a bigoted view. You believe because they oppose gay marriage they hate gays. Maybe it's simply your lack of knowledge of evangelicals but I can assure you that is absolutely untrue based on my many, many years within the Evangelical community.

I attend one of the largest Evangelical churches in North Dallas and I don't know a single member of our church that hates gay people.

Now, I will certainly agree that his language would turn off evangelicals. I don't believe they would appreciate or like his denigration of the types of people he regularly abuses. But that is a dislike for his views and his language, not the fact he is gay.

UC Berkeley protest spills into city streets, buildings vandalized

http://www.sfchronicle.com/news/art...ty-streets-10902222.php?cmpid=twitter-premium

Berkeley police were investigating a hit-and-run on Wednesday night involving a white BMW and protesters in Berkeley after a protest at UC Berkeley spread off campus.

The incident occurred at Durant and Telegraph avenues, where protesters blocked cars trying to get through the intersection. Three people climbed onto the hood of a white BMW sedan as it inched forward — then the driver suddenly hit the gas and sped off with one person still on the hood. He eventually fell off and didn't appear to be seriously injured.

Another person who had been on the hood before the car sped off — a high school student who gave her name as Kelsey — said she knew the driver would "pull that" kind of thing.

Enraged protesters ran after the car as it headed east down Durant Avenue.

In a case of mistaken identity, another driver, in a dark-colored sedan, farther down the block had his car beaten with sticks. At least one on the crowd pepper-sprayed the man.

Berkeley police said they were also receiving reports “that persons are setting fires to banks in the area Center Street & Shattuck Avenue as well as more fighting in the crowds.”

Protesters used the Yiannopoulos event to protest against what they called his hate speech, President Trump’s policies, including his vow to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and his ban on travel to the U.S. by citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries.

As protesters moved through the streets of Berkeley, they left in their wake signs of their anger: toppled over trash cans and profane graffiti on local businesses. When they reached Durant Avenue, marchers stopped to check out a street artist display of spray paintings, many bearing messages against the president.

Those, of course, were spared.

That's totally incorrect. Shows what you know about evangelicals.

So you find a way to attack President Trump while your leftist buddies shut down an opposing viewpoint and burn down their campus.

You leftists are dangerous.

I remember you not criticizing Obama when he threatened to pull federal funding. His threats had nothing to do with free speech, they had to do with making sure school kids had a place to pee.

So since you have no credibility you can just sit the *** down and STFU.

The police can handle this. No need for Biff to make threats, unless of course he's really thin skinned...oh wait.

With the slaughter of all of the gays in Orlando, it really galvanized the nation.Many Christians came to repentance with our views on gays...I FOR ONE,DID.

Yiannopoulos > Khardasian .... but not by much.

Milo, much, much smarter, but I agree that both are attention whores. Milo feeds off of this and is a provocateur par excellence (and not in a good way, Imo.). But it sells a lot of books. Cal Berkeley did Milo a huge favor with their violent censorship only reinforcing opinions that college campuses are absolutely out of control and shredding our Constitution in the process.

If the protest lacked violence, would you feel the same way?

Khardashians worth in excess of $122.5 million, I'd say they are pretty smart and out-distance Milo.
And to think it all started because Kim sucked and fvcked Ray J back before it was cool to have a sex tape. They could cease existing and it wouldn't register with me in the slightest.
