Milo Yiannopoulos, the gay alt-right editor at Breitbart, is getting all the attention he craves as protesters clashed with police to prevent him from speaking at the Berkeley campus.

If there's violence then it is a riot, not a protest. "Protest" at UC Berkeley https://t.co/Fc9sA8clYV https://t.co/FL3GukH1bO

Milo calls himself alt-right as he ascribes to many of their tribalistic, racialist beliefs, but many of the more hard-line racist alt-righters have rejected him for being too soft, and too gay, and too Jewish.
So much winning, I can’t take all the winning.
UCBD just gave 10 minute warning to disperse or face arrest. That's not happening. #Milo pic.twitter.com/5MVG8blVwd
