So is no one going to use this to bring up the fact that Trump himself is on record expressing his attraction to underage girls? Why is this not happening? It's incredible how teflon the Don is.

The infighting among the far right is glorious. Keep it up!

Why don't you help to bring it up? Gather all of the evidence, quotes, scans, clips, and start a hashtag.

For a huge group of people who don't like the guy I keep seeing threads about this dude. He thrives on this you know. Maybe I don't know and google him and find his Rogan podcast. Then think ok he is a decent dude and everyone else is dumb. Then I am a fan.

My twitter, facebook, reddit, here and other places are all a buzz with this guy that sucks. I bet he loves it.

You now have time to keep fighting the good fight.

Guess that's what it finally took.

Good fucking riddance. I hope he gets fired by Breitbart and ends up destitute (probably not but I can dream).

Hopefully this and the CPAC cancellation leads to a fast decline back into obscurity for Milo

After all the stupid things he has said it finally is catching up to him. Unfortunately his messages of hate have already started to spread.

so giving him a platform actually worked? He ruined himself by talking and people paying attention.

Only because he's way too deranged, even for people who would have been okay with more and more of his racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc.

If I remember correctly, he said that in reference to how attractive she would be when she was twenty, not how she looked at the time. It's still creepy and gross, but that difference is why it didn't stick.

I feel like this news is even bigger and is not getting enough attention. I think it needs its own thread.

Ehh, it'll probably get locked. Another Milo thread, plus earnestly caring about what Breitbart employees think? Nah.

Plus, I'm trying to purify my thread creation history to be heavily police chase and fast food themed, in that order.

He's paying the price for something he said a while ago. You could argue that his platform shined a spotlight on his past comments and is ultimately the cause of his downfall, but I would argue that he shouldn't have been allowed a platform in the first place.

We can't expect everyone like Milo (people who rile up hate groups and promote bigotry) to just self-destruct. They shouldn't even be handed the megaphone.

Up until now, he was profiting from spreading his toxic viewpoints. Let's not forget that when the next "Milo" pops up who doesn't have anything to say about pedophilia.

Do you have the link for this please? Cause, wtf, yea that deserves more attention.

I'm surprised this didn't get more attention during the election

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/more-un...-old-i-am-going-to-be-dating-her-in-10-years/

Then there's the long history of his comments about his own daughter

http://www.gq.com/story/donald-trump-ivanka-sex-trevor-noah-daily-show

And the revelations that he would barge into the dressing room of the Miss Teen Pageant (which had underage girls) while they were naked.

Between all this and now the impending release of Zelda and Mass Effect, 2017 looks hella good.

Let's not forget the fact that it took something so unequivocally evil as defending statutory rape and child rape for him to finally hang himself. But the racism, misogyny, transphobia, and Islamophobia? Oh, well that continues to slide on by, even in spaces that consider themselves progressive and empathetic to minorities.

This is not the case study for what happens when any racist, a sexist, a transphobe, or an Islamophobe gets a public platform to speak, because if that were the case the Republican establishment and some liberals would've been imploded by now. It's a case study for what happens when you're found to defend child abuse.

Won't save him. He's damaged goods now.

This is going to follow him around for the rest of his career.

any pub that takes him on now won't be writing him a 250k check. Probably because they only have 500 bucks and 2 bitcoins in the bank
