"But what about MY free speech? Where's MY platform?"
How do you respond to something like that? Watching Milo videos (like his most recent run in at UC Davis), people tell the person interrupting to shut up and be quiet. That doesn't work for me. It's a cop-out in my opinion.
Is an intrinsic part of freedom of speech also a submission to another's speech?
SJWs like him that seem to want diversity, but certainly not diversity in thought. They will try to silence anyone that they don't agree with. This is the first step towards a tyrannical fascist government.
That same guy literally justified breaking windows on the campus for expressing himself. That tells you enough about the tolerant left.

Disrupting a private event has nothing to do with freedom of speech. It's just disruption. Either make your own event, or wait until the end to ask questions like a normal human.
Evan Lewis
Liberals disrupted it so that we all can have freedom from speech :^)

At what point does interruption of free speech, by using free speech, become suppression of free speech?
Stop justifying this leftist horse shit.

Every time these liberal shit heads interrupt some one else's speech and pretend they are the ones being censored and marginalized. These people think that a kind of political morality is an acceptable substitute for social morality (aka respect, dignity and humility).
Jace Barnes
This is my question. We have the right to assembly, which gives us the right to kick somebody out of that assembly. Maybe that's the trick.
Also checked.

The cops and campus security wont do anything.
Cops wont do it because they need campus permission.
Campus wont do it because they're too pathetic and pussy to stand up to the leftist hoard they've created.
They're scared if they piss off the whiney faggots they'll protest the school and make it look bad.
So they cuck themselves to oblivion.
little do they know, many people will literally avoid their school for their lack of spine, knowing they cant trust the school to do whats right, even if it hurts a few feelings.
they've fucked themselves now.
it's not even about an agenda for the left anymore, it's a power play, how much can we get away with? how much money will they spend on our nonsense? how much power can we get?
there's already faggot unions that are edging closer to the power level of the university directors, it's totally out of control.
Need to coin a new term for the campus-coup that's occurring across America.

No.
You can go stand in the forum and shout anything you like but this is a private gathering that has been paid for. You are not allowed to shout me down in this private audience any more than I can come to your home and start giving a speech to your family during supper.
Furthermore you can ask any reasonable question you have at the end when I take questions.
Of you want to have a formal debate with me that can be arranged but it is not right now. Chimping out and silencing my speech while you brainlessly shout slogans is not conducive to a free society.

Yes and no. I think there's a big difference between "freedom of speech" and "freedom to be heard" and people seem to think that freedom of speech means that people have to listen to you, which they don't.
You're free to say or write anything you please, and I'm just as free to completely ignore and disregard you. People don't like to be ignored or disregarded, it makes them mad and makes them feel marginalized, but that's the world we live in and unless you use power or force or give people something they want (this is where charisma and false promises come in) then they're never going to give you the time of day if your opinions conflict with their preexisting beliefs.

There's a difference between being heard and being drowned out and not allowed to speak though.
Liam Walker
I hate Milo. That being said, your freedom of speech only means the government can't imprison you for speaking your mind. No one has to listen to you. If you want to publish your own bible and preach it on the corner, the law won't stop you. It also won't make anyone listen to you.

Thomas Thomas
I hear that in some places they make them sleep in the stable with the cows. Perhaps not too bad an idea.
Parker Howard
There's a big difference between an interruption and a protest from the people and an interruption from the government. If a large majorty of people tend to think your an asshole therefore you should not speak in public tough luck. That's how democracy works. But if the government tells you to stop saying this because its not "right" then that's an issue. Simply because the definition of whats right in the eyes of the people is always changing but the government is not. You have to understand nothing can truly be """free""". Just hope that the culture and people are dynamic enough to be able to spread and accept different ideas rapidly.

Don't like the Milo guy but Sir Oswald Mosley had the right idea on how to deal with the left trying to disrupt meetings.
Throw them out of the venue and if they get violent form a paramilitary group to respond in kind.

Luis Lewis
I agree that if you're subverting someones ability to even speak their message (through noise machines or screaming or whatever) then yea, that's objectively "wrong" and goes against the essence of free speech. If you don't like what someone is saying then you're free to walk away, and tell your friends to walk away, but you shouldn't try to drown them out. Agree with you on that 100%
Josiah Thomas
>gives us the right to kick somebody out
No you will wait patiently for your turn to talk and then use reason and rationale to express your points which hopefully draws a sound argument.
If you don't do that, like if you leftists don't learn that you need to do that eventually, then eventually the alt-right is going to hold you down. It's going to cut your fucking balls off, put them in your mouth and make you say LQBTQ+ again and again until the pubic hair is stuck in your teeth and you are gagging on bloody slimy skin.

Milo is a failure mainly because he is boring. He says controversial things and lives a controversial life, but listen to him speak. He's not a gifted orator.
Being attractive and controversial works for women like the Kardashian shits. Not for Milo. Men have to have something to say that people want to hear.
Angel Foster
You will see groups like that form from the right. It's already happened in Greece, UK, Germany, Sweden. It's not quite there in the US but the biker gangs and groups of ex vets are pretty close. Conservatives in the US aren't really that interested in politics. They do their voting and have an opinion by they mostly stick to themselves, run businesses, etc. The youth is almost all liberal but it's changing dramatically.
David Smith
If you want a platform built it, but if you are not interesting nobody will listen. Trying to subvert/co-opt a platform built by another isn't free speech, its theft.
Joshua Roberts
Become more than an average Joe and the platform will come to you.
Caleb Butler
Milo sucks, but you're an autistic faggot. Context. In the case of a performance, a conference, any kind of public speaking event, everyone talking all at once isn't "free speech". These people have their chance to dissent later. What they're doing is calling INTERRUPTION. You seem unable to differentiate between contexts and scenarios and are conflating the definition of free speech with the action of being anti social and impolite.
Juan Mitchell
Yeah that book was a huge failure too, #1 on Amazon in less than 24 hours. If you want to be edgy and signal against him that's fine, just don't blatantly lie lmao
We all know milo fucking sucks you idiot. The point is identity politics. Nobody can go on TV or sell books with what he says unless you're a gay man who likes black dick. Don't you understand that?
Colton James
Milo never stated that he was going to have a completely open platform. He states that he is going to lecture, and have a Q&A at the end. If you don't like it, don't go.
Don't even like the guy, but this is a no-brainer. Follow the rules, or don't attend. If you want to speak publicly, go right ahead and make your own event.
Ryan Taylor
I can't believe how much of a retard You apparently are.
Why is it the one time XKCD was categorically wrong was also the one time they went most viral?
Bentley Scott
The other person can sign up to run a conference, people showed up to hear milo's message. The protestor can get his own people to sign up to hear his.
John Price
Free speech for Marxists is retarded, they aren't human. The only freedom they deserve is the right to free helicopter rides.

You have freedom of speech in the public square.
Once you enter someone's private event on private land, you have freedom of speech insofar as you are not disrupting other people. The people who rented the venue have the right to use it and not be disrupted. Disrupters can be uninvited from private property at any time -- 1st amendment doesn't forbid that at all.
Just like when idiot liberals were crying "FREE SPEECH" while being ejected at Trump rallies, while not realizing people are ejected from Democrat rallies every day for the same thing.

jewish racemixing homosexuals are not conservatives, let alone "alt-right," so why should any of us care?
