Makes me wonder sometimes if some of these people are not extensions of an internet troll. That is, are doing their thing to cause a stir for shits and giggles. Let's face it, it's pretty easy to troll both sides of the political spectrum and hundreds of people do it everyday on the net ... so isn't that far of a stretch to think people would do it in a more visual and public forum.

There was recently a circumstance where a group, Project Verita who are set up primarily to "trick" media, tried to trick the Washington Post into publishing a story about an sexual assault case against a senator. The Post however found that the "victim" was actually an actor for this Project Verita group. This group does it for a bit more sinister reasons than simple trolling though, they are trying to discredit media by setting them up to report false allegations / news, with the goal of then being able to discredit their other work (in this case trying to dismiss the other allegations against this senator). They should have targeted Sunrise, or ACA ... much easier targets!

But as you can see it wouldn't be too far fetched if it came out Milo (or some others of his elk) were simply portraying a character .. .in effect Ali G and Borat managed to do it for many years, even with the show being televised and shown as a parody / satire.

BLM protests often became violent..... I don't discredit movements to address inequality of African Americans in the USA at all, just BLM started off that way and then became far more than just a rights movement. If you're upset about inequitable treatment from police, violence in rioting isn't really going to change many minds....

In Australia it may be a very small minority but he does make international news. Remember the reaction to his invitation to speak at Berkeley in California? Trying to stop him speaking only inflates his free speech rhetoric. 

I have absolutely no love for the man, I actually googled some of the stuff he says about women and its pretty retarded. It diminishes anything even remotely constructive when taking on the feminist movement in the USA. I do however enjoy seeing people get riled up by him, it's hilarious. 

SOME BLM protests but not all become violent. No one condones the violence but I understand their frustration. 

Your second point is exactly what I was trying to say. He gets more coverage when he gets banned and also wins more support  from the right.

He is not a God. He defended pedo's ffs.

It makes him a racist and sexist. He also has links to neo-nazi groups which would make him a white nationalist.

He married an African American. He is also half Jewish.

Obviously, he is a pretty piss poor racist and neo nazi.

That's not true at all!

here are his real comments.

So these comments are not racist?

Did he hurt your feelings? Its not white people's fault that A) Aboriginal art is total fucking garbage, and B) Aborigines couldn't invent the wheel.

Western culture is superior to all other cultures and if you are upset by this then you can go and eat a giant bag of dicks. Its really that simple.

A: Yes their art is just a bunch of polka dots being applied all over the place

B: again thats true

But they are definitely skilled at living off the land. when the end of the world comes, we would need those skills, otherwise we are stuffed and it'll be the Aboriginies who will live on.

feeding on the cockroaches?

No, its not that simple at all. Western culture, philosophy and technological advancements were possible due to interactions with a myriad of civilisations over the course of several thousand years. 

As someone whom in normal life attempts to live one windup at a time, I freaking love watching Milo do his thing. He openly admits he is hated by the right and hated by the left and that's exactly where he wants to be, and I applaud him for that. I loved his interview with Channel 10 when Jessica Rowe couldn't actually debate anything of significance/relevance, and what I loved most about it is that there are people in existence whom watched that and don't think Rowe was absolutely destroyed in debate, which just further feeds Milo for future. Milo's "stats" of people whom believe there is gender inequality vs people whom identify as feminist is overwhelmingly and surprisingly massive in gap between the two, and it's hard to argue against a large amount of his points on the subject when you keep that in mind. I will happily grab my bowl of cereal and watch on for the years to come of the Milo show, it is just so damn fascinating. I like to think I attempt to live life pointing out hypocrisy in my own but also everyone elses lives, and Milo in his entirety is about that. Far out, what a time to be alive. 

I find that his points are very targeted and find him to be a shock jock rather than a genuine political commentator. 

What I do love is how his appearance brings out the true colours of the 'tolerant' side of politics who will fight tooth and nail for the rights of anyone but straight white people and then have the ignorance to stop a man from talking because he appeals to the right. 

I also saw that Vicpol intends to bill him for having to provide police support. I disagree with this as it would set a precedent for all controversial public speakers. If it succeeds, all the ANTIFA criminals would have to do would be what they always do and show up and cause violence. This shitstorm over Milo has shown just how ugly Australia can be, disappointing given the success of the SSM bill.

I read that was happening too. But wherever I read it said it's standard practice to bill this kind of thing direct to the person, so it sounds as if the precedent is already set well before Milo. I didn't investiage any further though.

I thought that related to sports events and the like and not so much political speakers?

Looks like the knives are out for Turnbull, Abbott and the LNP this morning, following their successful SSM policy. Can you imagine if Shorten and Labor has suggested the plebiscite, the gay community would probably hold a ticker tape parade and erect a statue in his honour.

It was encouraging to see that none of the proposed "concessions" were accepted by either house of parliament. I think we should be looking to celebrate that a discriminatory law has now been removed, rather than trying to "bait" people (yes the 'dickhead-radar' is well and truly locked onto you rusty ... nowadays we are a bit more PC though and call those comments trolling ... I still prefer dickhead!).

I'd imagine it would cover hosting an event (irrelevant if sport or otherwise)
