That’s absurd. Granting freedoms to some faiths but not all is religious persecution. This is the same as what Saudi Arabia, North Korea, and many other nations do…
 
Wow. We’re really scrounging the bottom. I swear anyone that follows this guy must be secretly in love with his looks, because he offers nothing but garbage in political thought.
 
Thanks for clarifying.

BTW, your other post was an ad hominem.

That he offers no useful political thought and gets by on his looks alone is a reasoned position. The dude’s got nothing going for him but being pretty. I’m sure it helps him get the attention he desires.
 
He just got a 12 million dollar investment, started his own media company and is publishing a book.

He also single-handedly is saving free speech at that disgraceful dump known as UC-Berkeley.

Leave it to the American left to attack a homosexual. Just goes to show all their pandering for GLBT “rights” is just rooted in their own selfishness and they’d give it all up to appease Islam.
 
How nice that no one is discussing the Original Post.

Except for Melodeonist. Well done!

Fifty Shades of Gray sold five bajillion copies. He got $12M because he knows how to separate right wing suckers from their money.

Showing up at Berkeley to be an obnoxious kid isn’t saving free speech, it’s an investment to continue to separate right wing suckers from their money

Who’s attacking him because he is homosexual? Your last sentence is especially incoherent and I can’t figure out how you get to the conclusions from the statement (Islam is appeased because you think someone is attacking Milo because he is gay, what?).
 
You did not address the substance of the article, you dismissed it because the story was quoted on a website run by a guy that you dislike.
 
As much as I hate to defend Yiannopoulos, I have to disagree. I don’t think he’s getting by on his looks. If he was a horrible quasimodo it would make what he does more difficult. But, I mean, there’s plenty of pundits and agitators out there who aren’t svelt.

As for the article, it is rather vague about specifics. I’d have to see precisely what is going on with the Buddhist chanting. I’d also need to see the full reasoning of the court’s opinion. But if I take the article as true and complete, something seems fishy with the ruling.

I didn’t realize that CAF was allowing articles to be posted from every random right-wing blog with an agenda now. First, gatewaypundit and now pedophile-loving Milo Y. I’ll tell you what, post it from a good news site and I’ll take a look.

I’m not so sure. I think a lot of what the right wing likes is guys that look like them (see Limbaugh or O’Reilly or Michael Weiner). But if they don’t look like them, they like them for their looks (any blonde woman on Fox, Megyn Kelly before she had the indecency to complain about being sexually harassed and Milo Y). I think Milo appeals to a lot of rightwingers because they think he is attractive.
 
For those who are wondering, this whole mess is (where else) because of the 9th Circuit which wouldn’t understand the Constitution if it’s lives depended on it.

The preference for different religions is not surprising and necessary to maintain enough voters for the Democratic Party, whose platform echoes the sentiments of this court.
 
I don’t know. Maybe? I think there’s a lot more people out there who are mesmerized by their speech. I don’t think the Yiannopolous’, Limbaughs, Becks, etc. are really quite as crazy as they act on their shows. Limbaugh himself admitted it was threatre, not “news”.

The problem is that people… Embrace the character. They think the character is real. I don’t think Yiannopolous is sellling sex. I think he’s selling feel-goods to “those sorts of people.” Milo is a businessman first - he’s selling a character and brand.
