Milo Yiannopoulos; the man twitter banned got a book deal. Currently #2 on Amazon.

Milo is probably getting off on the protests here in the Golden State. He gets to make himself out to be a martyr for free speech and loads of free publicity.
Of course, he can say whatever he wants (with limits on libel, slander and yelling "fire" in a crowded theater) but he's not entitled to be protected from any backlash on what he says. If he doesn't like what others have to say in response, he should stay home.

He obviously is entitled to be protected from backlash on what he says if the backlash involves threats of violence or actual violence.

The police presence was there purely to deal with the backlash of how these people reacted to Milo being there to speak.  If they're reacting violently to that in an effort to shut down his freedom of speech then he definitely does have a right to be protected from that violence.

Milo will be loving this, and the free publicity.  I agree with that.  Pretty much a win win situation for him.

Nope no protection if he doesn't wanna get hurt he should shut the hell up .freedom of speech means baring the  results of your speech even violence

As for milo the only reason he does speak is to cause shit like this then play the victim when the logical outcome occurs

Hell if the anarchists were not to blame I wouldn't put it past milo to hire a bunch of thugs to stir up this riot so he could play the victim

As for publicity anyone who uses something like this to sell a book is scum
