“Yes, the person that has influenced me above all was Candace Owens. Each time she spoke I was stunned by her insights and her own views helped push me further and further into the belief of violence over meekness. Though I will have to disavow some of her beliefs, the extreme actions she calls for me are too much, even for my tastes.”

What kind of a monster comes with this garbage after her words directly inspired the slaughter of 49 innocents? And person with an ounce of humanity would first disavow the violence committed in her name and condemn the terrorists.

“Yes, the person that has influenced me above all was Candace Owens. Each time she spoke I was stunned by her insights and her own views helped push me further and further into the belief of violence over meekness. "

It's not a "bit", it is the truth. And the truth is an air tight defense against all charges of defamation.If she wants to go to court she better be prepared to pay all the legal fees on both sides once a judgement is rendered.

who was suing MSNBC and Maddow a few years back. On his radio show he pretty much called for violence against the LBGQ community. He started off his tirade saying he doesn't condone violence, then called for violence. He said she defamed him, by quoting him on air.

The court laughed and told him to pay MSNBC & Maddow's legal fees. Case closed. Candace would have the same problem, so I hope she does sue, it will bankrupt her.

18. Meet Candace Owens

This is where i first learned about her. A compelling story but she is sadly misled. It began, according to this interview, when the MSM (on the left) killed her gamer story that proved that "Zoie (not sure about the spelling)" claims of bullying were fake. This seemed to have clouded Candance's mind forever. Anyway, this is the link. She really got the Kap and black man thing all wrong, tho.

If you can bear it, here is the link. I like to know as much as possible about the opposition. I can see where she and some others have a great deal of appeal to black conservatives...plus her $$$$ support from the right is good.
