Shannon Barber replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"I think he is vile. He traffics in anti-semitism, has painted false narratives regarding the gay community and pedophilia (a nasty narrative we struggle to get away from to this day), singles people out for ridicule (his troll fest against Leslie…"
Pope Beanie replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'""To me this is defacto censorship and unacceptable."
A reasonable statement. Still, I am substantially more disturbed by populist (e.g. white nationalist) and left-idealist over-reactions (e.g. overt displays of violence during speeches)…"
Unseen replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"Free speech and bullying are not mutually exclusive. Bullying is something you can use your 1st Amendment right to do. Bullying per se isn't even illegal."
Jason Simko replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"I agree completely with the news not being worth watching. To give a little background. I used to work security here in New Jersey. The state started requiring training every 2 years. In that training they show us how to recognize when someone might…"
CDB replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"No i am just saying I get to decide what is bullying, not you Pope....(sarcasm)
I would have no problem with courts deciding but vast majority of the time it never ever gets to courts. Many low level minions act on their own in the courts…"
Pope Beanie replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"Are you saying that no one should decide? Or that bullying itself is never damaging enough to require mitigation?"
Davis Goodman replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"Well, in America law makers do when they pass laws that combine saying something and accompanying legal activity and prosecutors and judges determine to what extent free speech trumps those laws that have been passed. That's who.
In most other…"
Simon Paynton replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"Bullying is intended to cause harm. Hence, Milo gets banned from Twitter, for stalking and harassing some random actress. "
CDB replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"again whom decides which is free speech and which is bullying.

Pope Beanie replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"Our immigrants are very well vetted and sponsored, compared to the overflow of refugees getting into Europe, in spite of what the lying, populist-rallying, Muslim fear-mongering isolationists like Trump and Bannon say. How many serious agressions by…"
Jason Simko replied to CDB's discussion 'Milo Yiannopoulos, topical, political, thought provoking and damn he pisses folks off....'"Aren't we though? They conduct another attack and we wave more of our rights. They keep doing it and eventually we will be under a government that just sees the people as pawns without any right to dignity. It is already getting to be that way.…"
