Crowder is a safe space? When someone mostly agree's with you, there's zero possibility it's because their logic tells them you were mostly justified?

So Ben was asked to do an interview on his book, and when the time came they didn't interview him about his book, but they did pose questions to Ben about things he's done or said in general, and because he wasn't prepared to combat that in a worthy manner since he wasn't anticipating the ambush, it's entirely Bens fault and he just needs to deal with it?

So say there's someone who knows a famous guy who is publicly vocal about upholding the second amendment, who loves guns, uses them all the time, has fast reaction times and is deadly accurate, and is always conceal carrying in public. This is something quite well known about this famous guy by many. This someone hosts a speaking event and invites the famous guy to be the main speaker. After finishing their famous guy welcoming speech, instead of this someone presenting their hand in good faith while exiting the stage, they pull a gun and put an entire clip into the famous guy, killing him before he can react. The famous guy, as always, was conceal carrying at the time.

In court, this someone explains to the judge it's not their fault that the famous guy was tricked into thinking he was simply going to be giving a speech at a friendly event, and that the famous guy should have been quite capable of backing up his claims mentally and physically, yet he could not when put to the test. The judge, who is you by chance, agree's with this someone and acquits them of all charges.

Umm, ok?

During the interview the interviewer made several references to Ben book and then challenge Ben on exactly that and Ben got angry.  You forget that once Ben got angry and basically quite the interview there wasn't a chance to go any further.  From what I take is that everyone must treat Ben with kid gloves but never challenge his position like he does all the time.

You seem to love your analogies but in the end all I see is excuses.  None of your analogies plays out to what happen but is just you looking for a way to excuse Ben and how he behaved.  I will give you credit though, if I ever need an excuse for anything wrong that I have done, I will definitely look you up because I am sure you will have a number of them ready.

He makes references to what Ben's said but doesn't seem to make any direct references to the book. Go further? The 'interview' was already over 15 minutes. How long does it take to get to the point? Obviously Ben has all day to sit and be whipped, because who doesn't?

Let's have a party. I'll bring the excuses and you can bring the spin and denial. Better yet, let's record it, post it online, and call it an interview...
