The right should stick to Ben Shapiro. Much more of a sane intelligent guy.
Ben Shapiro is a lazy debater when it comes to social issues. Likes to use strawmen arguments, and thinks he knows more than the medical community. And his stance on healthcare is flawed in that he doesn't acknowledge that it is a labor intensive field, which is why cost is so high. Competition in healthcare would never get the cost down, because once provider compensation got below a certain point, competitors would drop out of the field and costs would go back up again

Bens thing is he's always been the smartest person in the room. He will destroy anyone in a debate.

George Takei and Lena duhman are not in the same boat.
Lena Dunham molested her little sister where as Takei was young and in a relationship with an older man(i didnt hear him mention age, so he could have been 16 as far as I know).
Point is, Takei was a victim, Dunham was the perpetrator.

I listen to the Pod cast and I watched the Joe Rogan interview, so lets get a couple of things straight.
1. "boy" does infact mean the younger male in a gay relationship, usually there has to be a noticeable age difference for the term to be used.
2. Him defining pedophilia is separate from his argument of people entering consensual relationships. he was simply defining what pedophilia was. And yes, he is indeed right about the definition .
3. He(milo) defined young boys as those who were his own age when he entered into a relationship with a 29 year old priest. He was 17 at the time. Some will say he claimed he was 14, but the only reference to that is the Joe Rogan interview, and Rogan is the one who uses that age, not Milo. Milo tried to move that conversation along by saying, "somewhere around that age", but he doesnt actually agree to it.
4. Milo is right about sexual attraction. You dont magically become attracted to someone when they turn 18, or cut off that attraction to an older person if you are under the age of consent.
There are a lot of things to dislike about Milo, this isnt one of them.

But I thought this was interesting. George Takei said roughly the same thing in roughly the same way on roughly the same kind of show. Nobody tried to tar and feather Takei. Hmm....
Here's the Takai sound bite - looks like there are protests to his sponsors about this - guess what goes around does come around. Do the humanitarian Democrats on this board think this is any different than what Milo said because many of you have referenced Takai and applauded him for his anti-Trump stance.
Please educate yourself - 4chan already uncovered that the supposed Reagan Battalion was a previous cpac run by a Hillary attorney - who pretended to be a NeverTrumper. The video has been so severely edited and there was a liberal journalist email list that the video was released to. 4chan knew of the video before the story broke because someone on the email list leaked it as they weren't comfortable with the hit piece.
Now go to the George Takai soundbite I presented - many have defended this man right on these forums because he sided with them against Trump. Takai actually makes light of the situation that you have your pants in an uproar over.

LoL..4chan? Not seeing the editing....and so what..a liberal mailing list?
George Takai? His behavior and statements have nothing to do with Milo. One person's behavior or statements have nothing to do with anothers.
Not sure of your point--it is the Repubs who have canceled his speech, not the 'liberals'....and now that he is no longer an editor at Breitbart...he resigned--of his own free will, with the cancelling of the his book deal, Milo no longer has relevance in the public sphere.
So, after all the hate for the kids on the college campus demanding the milo be uninvited to talk to them, all the angst about the left hating on 'free speech'... now, they are doing their own hating on him. Can you say 'hypocrisy'?
"On Monday, he was disinvited from the Conservative Political Action Conference after video of his remarks was promoted through social media.
Yiannopoulos has long been known for provocative comments about women and Muslims...
Before this controversy, Yiannopoulos was perhaps best known for getting banned from Twitter for helping to lead an online harassment campaign against comedian and "Ghostbusters" actress Leslie Jones."
So, apparently it was just fine with the Conservative Political Actual Conference that milo said and did all that stuff, until he got caught on tape just before their conference. Maybe it was because his targets in the past were women and muslims, and not boys?
Conservative Political Actual Conference is refusing to allow Yiannopoulos to speak at their gathering?
What is the world coming to?
