    It's as though it never occurs to them if you don't like what he has to say you're free to simply not attend and not listen... But that's not how the little brown shirts work these days.

    He was not suppressed. He couldn't take the heat, so he ran out of the kitchen. People are free to challenge each other in a setting like that. He accepted the challenge, and engaged the person asking the question, but was not able to answer the question, so he stormed out. Not everyone is cut out for a debate in front of hundreds of people.

    He was literally given the platform to speak, but he chocked. To his credit, its not easy to be on the spotlight like that, and if you are not comfortable, then it's usually best to turn it down. Even Brad Pitt, an actor, admits having stage-fright.

    Someone asked the fake tough guy a question and he ran away. Are words too scary for him? Mean he did kill a couple of people. One would think even with that quivering lip when he cries, he could stand up to words.

    Yeah, as usual, illiberals are suppressing free speech.

    Whose speech was suppressed? Kyle Rittenhouse had a platform from which to speak, and he ran out. Just ran away like a little coward.

    Infantilizing a grown man is certainly a choice by the tolerant and diverse left wing.

    He was shouted down? He had a microphone and was taking a question from the audience, who gave him time to answer. Why defend his cowardice and stupidity with excuses?

    I get it. In your opinion asking a question from a person is suppression of free speech, even though a question is actually the opposite, - it's a request for the other person to speak his mind. In this case KR declined the request, and ran. That's his choice

    Your opinion has been noted. Every now and then I think I've heard it all, and then you open your mouth.

    So you people now think that freedom of speech not only means they should be given a platform but should be able to waive the free speech of everyone else around them to bar them from even asking a question?

    fascinating

    It’s really a damn indictment of our public education system. That’s so many people don’t realize only the federal government is prevented in interfering and freedom of speech. Just because you feel you have the freedom of speech to say something does not mean someone else doesn’t have the freedom of speech to tell you (in this case Kyle) they are an idiot.

    I bet you were up in arms when there were armed protests at drag queen story hour, weren’t you? Oh wait, you weren’t, not surprising.

    They were shouting him down. Maybe they read Romans 1? You think they hate gays, too?

    I am unaware of anyone showing up at drag shows and causing a scene. Perhaps you have some links.

    As for Bud Light, the people who are upset are making individual choices on what they spend their money on, as far as I know there is no organized or central entity out there trying to cancel it. I just don't see conservatives doing what libs do frequently.

    Do you recall when Riley Gaines was at some college in CA and needed police protection because she was in fear for her safety? The cops had to keep her in a locked room until they could get the angry liberal mob out of the area.

    Or maybe you remember when Berkeley had a destructive riot because a gay immigrant was coming to speak.

    The thing is, the right has no organized group of people who go to places where people are spouting outrageous liberals craziness. On the other hand, libs do and they're called antifa, blm and college students.

    If Dylan Mulvany was invited to speak somewhere, how many protesters do you think would bother to show up? Now if someone was invited to speak about the horrors of sex changes, what do you think would happen? We all know what would happen.

    I agree, he's not experienced or polished enough to handle public gigs that might get confrontational. But man, look at the heat he's taking from the left in this thread - no mercy.

    At my last job I had a boss who was in the business for decades and when he had to speak to my techs, maybe 10 at a time depending what office we were at, he froze, choked up and stammered. Everyone isn't the same because I could talk to the techs without a problem.

    If you think that was bad, you should have seen him when he had to give a presentation to a group of vice presidents. It was brutal, but the VPs understood.

    He was shouted down because he's too ****ing dumb too ****ing scared to have addressed with "dialogue" his low-life BFF Charlie Kirk's blatant racism.
    So he was whisked off the stage then later on he posted that the time was up so he had to go. :roflol:

    Yeah, the anti-free speech Leftists always come up with an excuse.

    All fascists justified their actions, just like you're doing, now.
