At some point, a person whose speech is inciting violence should be held accountable for that speech. At what point does a person who does something like screaming racial epithets in a black neighborhood become responsible for doing so? For another extreme, if someone came to a crowd of children and started talking about raping them, would it be out of bounds for a parent to attack that person rather than call the police and wait for them to show up? I mean they can remove their own child, but what about all of the other children there?

Does that person deserve to be attacked? I think there is an argument there. And not just an "I want to make him hurt" retributive thing.

Now does this in any way apply to Milo? No. This is just some extreme example. For the most part, if you constantly spew the hatred that Milo does, you should expect and prepare for violence, but you don't deserve it. I do think he pushes the envelope specifically to piss people off enough so that he can use the outbursts to advance his agenda. That adds an extra layer of sliminess to it.

Some one finally  gets it (gold star) thou I will admit I got emotional in some of my language Milo has that effect on me

Thou I will disagree in Milo case but we disagree on that

So lets say someone assaults Milo on his way back to his hotel after another of his shitty, scummy speeches.

According to you, Milo had it coming, that he should've kept his mouth shut, and the one who assaulted him should not be arrested?
