He's a loudmouth jerkoff. He'd fit right in with those guys. Lots of closeted homosexuals within their ranks.
So is Woolybug. In civilized society, you don't punch people in the face or shoot rockets at college buildings. You just don't.

Thanks for proving my point. This Milo jack wad doesn't seemed interested in living in a "civilized" society. Hence me not giving two shits if someone were to punch him in the face. Live by the sword and all that.

Thanks. I realize some people can't distinguish between how the actions of a handfull of rabble rousers and those an erratic President might effect the world in radically different ways.

That's your perogative if you think Schumer and Milo are on the same level and equally deserving of a good punch in the face.

Sorry didn't think the italics were necessary. Then again I'm talking with someone that is wishing for violence against another human being, for seemingly no reason. Or at least no reason you can articulate.

Milo seems uninterested in living in a "civilized" society. Hence me not loosing sleep if he is on the receiving end of what is often the byproduct of said type of society. Was that articulate enough?

Whatever. You obviously gobble down whatever shit sandwich the propagandists on the left feed you and then ask for seconds. I ask for the third and final time before you expose yourself as a sheep, when has Milo ever advocated for violence or promoted incivility?

WoW, a riot on that campus used to mean you might get hit by a stray birkenstock. I suppose the upside was, you could find you a new pair when things cleared out.

Still trying to find the upside to fire, broken shit, macing the opposition, and other general assault and battery of the innocent. Seems to be the signature move of the left. Sure once in a while some people get together and bitch about some things w/o burning shit down...but it isn't as frequent as times when shit gets destroyed.

I saw the cops at this latest Berkley deal...they just kinda loosely surrounded the angry participants, had some stuff moved, and let them go...kinda like what you do when someone has an epileptic seizure. Makes no sense to me...

The Students are running that place...and that simply cannot be. I get what Berkley is, and has been, but I don't get the cops letting it go on...asking for some seriously bad shit that they won't be able to control when the want to.

Yeah ok. The dude is so "civil" he was banned from Twitter. I'm sure the retort will be that was a left wing conspiracy, SJW's running wild, ect...

Milo was banned from Twitter because his followers, i.e. NOT MILO, sent porn to Leslie Jones. I do not dispute that many of Milo's fanboys are vile people. But being mean to someone on Twitter is not violence. It's the same thing with college students and safe spaces. We use the language of "fear" and "safety" to mean "hearing ideas I don't like" or "someone was rude to me." No, fear and safety only come into play when people commit actual violence.

Wizard,
When you realize that you are insulting and demeaning others with words our mothers would wash our mouths out with soap on an Irish football board that stresses civil discourse, an apology to the board is in order.

Please spare us the faux outrage over the words "shit sandwich" especially when Bluto doesn't seem offended at all.

I disagree with Wiz on like 95% of stuff... but the pearl clutching over his word choice and rhetorical style is eye roll inducing. Why not try addressing what he is saying if you have such objection to it?

Deal with it instead of adding further insults to Board members.

So the end product of this fellows "ideas" and the manner in which he goes around promoting and communicating them is a mob of vile "fanboys"? How exactly is that fostering "civility" or a "civil society"? It seems to be the exact opposite. That being the case, Milo is in fact helping to erode social norms surrounding civility, civil discourse and civil society. One would think many "conservatives" would like to see him punched in the face.

I like Bluto and Wiz... I agree, laugh with, and disagree with both often enough... I don't see either really insulting the other, whereas you have legit name calling and personal insults coming from other regs almost daily lately... just saying

Worth throwing in my two cents about the direction and tone of this thread with a few of the comments and raising the possiblity of this becoming personal. In the end, each individual will make their own decisions on that. I believe a mod previously asked for everyone to take a deep breath on this thread. Of course, some may well not consider their words to be excessively personal in any way.

Exactly, it's a free exchange of ideas. Neither person is crossing any sort of line. I found it a pretty good read and insightful.

But, Wiz said "shit sandwich," so like I guess that means Bluto is going to run off to a corner and cry because he can handle a common rhetorical device or something, right?

Milo is a self-described provocateur. He's a professional troll. I don't blame the troll when someone reacts to his trollery with violence. Violence is the line that shall not be crossed.

It's like... Jay-Z can rap about selling crack. But when some random guy in Brooklyn ACTUALLY sells crack, he doesn't get to plead innocence because Jay-Z provoked him into doing it, nor can some random guy punch Jay-Z in the face because he doesn't like crack dealers. (Yes I know Jay-Z actually sold crack, but that's not the point.) Speech, no matter how vile or distasteful or contrary to social norms, does not justify retaliatory violence.

I wish PJW would leave InfoWars. He's too clever to be associated with that asshat Alex Jones.

I don't mean to belabor the point and you obviously have good intentions, but...

...you do realize that you took something that neither party considered a big deal, and then personally called out Wizard and demanded an apology for the board implying his mother may be ashamed of him if she read his post, right?

I'll drop it here, I just think if your goal was to tone down rhetoric, defuse a situation, stop posts from getting personal, et. al. that wasn't how to go about accomplishing it. It seemed like "concern trolling" to provoke a response from Wiz.

But, again, that obviously doesn't seem like your intent as you've explained your motivations so I'm happy to call this a misunderstanding and move on.

What does this even mean? Next time you might as well just call him a bad hombre because neither phrase actually means anything.

Again you haven't pointed out a single reason you dislike Milo and think he should be punched in the face.

The twitter thing is laughable he sent one tweet voicing his dislike of the female ghostbusters remake. An opinion I think we can all agree with.

I disagree. Case in point, if someone were to call one of my black friends a "nigger" using any form of communication a punch to the face from said friend is probably in the provocateurs future if they were to meet and or face to face. I would not loose sleep over that either.

See Wizards post describing this jerk and his "vile" followers. To be clear I said I would not loose any sleep over it. If you think getting banned from one of the worlds largest social media platforms for being the king of a merry band of antisocial dickheads is not a "big deal" that's your prerogative.

But you and your friend would think it unfair if you called someone you disagreed with a Nazi and they took equal offense and punched you.

Not really. That's why I don't go around calling people "nazi's". Unless you know, they're seig heiling and goose steeping and what not.

So no you won't explain why you dislike him, got it. If Milo was a liberal celebrity and a conservative said that they didn't think he was interested in living in a civilized society, that he should be punched in the face, and couldn't name a single specific reason they disliked him, they would be branded as a homophobe.

On Twitter A) people are constantly banned from Twitter. Happens thousands of times a day I would guess, B) twitter clearly had an axe to grind against Milo before this event ever occurred. He's the only celebrity to ever be unverified. Twitter tried to suppress his account by unverifying him because he was saying things that didn't jive with their liberal agenda and when that didn't work they made up a reason to ban his account.

That's completely within their rights as a private company, but it also ruins this idea that Milo was some menace to society for disliking Leslie Jones performance in Ghostbusters. Meanwhile you have liberal pieces of shit like Sarah Silverman openly calling for a military coup on the same platform.

What has Milo said that's even remotely akin to calling your black friend a nigger? As polite speech goes, "nigger" is perhaps the most egregious violation and Milo hasn't come anywhere close to that.
