LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Controversial conservative commentator Milo Yiannopoulos is scheduled to speak at UCLA later this month on the topic "10 Things I Hate About Mexico."

Yiannopoulos was invited to speak on campus by the school's Bruin Republicans.

The group wrote in a Facebook post explaining the event: "The debate on immigration often only focuses on the impact immigration has on America, but ignores the root causes of why people are leaving Mexico to come here. Does Mexico do enough for its people?"

1. Ok now he is trolling for a provocation to set off racial strife in California.

[Corgigal]

2. Ok

No one go. Ignore it, then he's a nobody. No press, no care. He's paid to do this stupid crap, be smart.

5. yep...fuck 'im.....

[Ilsa]

3. I hope Dems make it clear across all of the SW that it is

the Republicans on campus welcoming this nazi.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

4. Let me get this straight. A British asshole with a Greek surname is coming here

to tell us who we should or shouldn't let in our country?

[Vinnie From Indy]

6. +1,000,000

Cheers!

8. Now, does his hate business venture provide and pay for their

security or do they reimburse college campuses, if not then regardless if it's racist propagandista kkknazi groups or Mother Teresa or Pope Frank himself, everyone is required to pay and provide security or seek another venue...The liability is far to great a cost than having hate groups, to be fair must treat all groups equally.

7. Sounds like someone is hard up for cash.

Did Anne Coulter turn him down for a personal loan?

[shenmue]

9. THIS WILL NOT END WELL

10. Why is a non American being allowed to speak here on our college campus. He holds no US citizenship.

how can he claim freedom of speech as a foreign citizen he should go back to Greece or England and give his talk.

[Hortensis]

17. Happens all the time. Americans speak around the planet also.

It's really a good thing overall. University students aren't stupid, they're not children to be protected, and they really do need to know about bad people trying to do bad things.

This'll backfire on this group also. If my son were a "Bruin Republican," I'd worry about it hurting him. Employers search backgrounds on line now, searching for indications of personality and character. At very least he'd need to keep activities with this group off his resume.

Btw, this creep doesn't actually have to claim freedom of speech. Our liberal Declaration of Independence claims universal principles meant to apply all men, not just card-carrying Americans.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

19. Hasn't the US Government excluded

some controversial figures in the past? surrounding the IRA? I'm thinking Gerry Adams and Ian Paisley, thought truly I never followed the issues so I could be way off. There is precedent is what i'm saying.

[Historic NY]

22. Exactly.

11. Conservative Milo Yiannopoulos defends pedophilia and pedophiles. Disgusting POS.

Some conservatives are not hung up on that age of consent thing.

(Sarcasm thingie goes here)

[Blue Owl]

12. So... it's a self-titled hate speech.

Way to go, bRuin Republicans!

[BlueIdaho]

13. Controversial Conservative?

Please...

Try fascist blowhard.

[paleotn]

14. Go back to Greece, Milo..

We don't want your immigrant ass here, soiling our northwestern European America. Bunch of garlic eaters!

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

[YOHABLO]

15. Just stoking the fire. The citizens of Mexico don't need Milo to tell them what is wrong

with Mexico. Just as we don't need anyone to tell us what is wrong with our country. WE KNOW!

[Initech]

16. Fuck this asshole!

Why does he keep getting invited anywhere? The administrators and the clubs know it won't end well!

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

18. He and the Republicans are trying to provoke a reaction.

So they can claim to be the "Champions of Freeze Peech!™" and label the left as anti-American fascists.

That's the only reason he's doing this.

[Initech]

21. Honestly the best thing we can do is ignore him.

If that's what they get their jollies on - triggering liberals - then let's ignore him and concentrate on what really matters - winning elections. Let that jackass preach his hate to an empty room.

20. That racist is kind of like a terrorist.
