Julien Blanc: UK denies visa to 'pick-up artist'
 

Anyone see anything wrong with this?

The Home Secretary has the power to exclude an individual if she considers his or her presence in the UK is "not conducive to the public good".

Author and columnist Daisy Buchannan tweeted: "It makes me very happy that on #InternationalMensDay, Julien Blanc does not get to be an International Man."

Last year, Mrs May banned anti-Islamic activists Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer from coming to the UK to join an English Defence League demonstration.

In 2009, then home secretary Jacqui Smith refused to admit Dutch far-right politician Geert Wilders.

The guy is a scumbag...

No doubting that, but the wording of the article raises other questions.

Wow, someone took a stand against obnoxious assholes who think all other people in the world are their toys.

Cool.

"Mystery" and "Matador" tried to pick up my ex-girlfriend one time and she thought they were the biggest geeks in the world

Damn straight....... and there's too many of that kind of idiot!

He's a prick :321GFY

But sadly now he's got momentum, he'll probably get an Oprah show and then his own TV show....... Oprah must be sitting in meetings right now trying to figure out how to present him to the world.

Isn't the Oprah show retired by now?

Good for England, but where's his next stop? Even USA needs to ban this trash from entering.

Mr Blanc has apologised, saying his intention was "a horrible attempt at humour" taken out of context.

Appearing on US network CNN on Monday, Mr Blanc said: "I just want to apologize, you know, to anybody I've offended in any way.

"This was never my intention, and I just wanted to add that I'm extremely sorry for - for everything that happened."


------------------------------

I knew he'd try to play this off as humor. Anyone know where he lives? Where he is from?

He's apologizing for what went down as a result of his actions. He is not apologizing for his actions, his conduct or behavior. Would be great if someone removes him and his buddies from the gene pool.

Really sick of him and dim-witted, self-entitled, self-important dirtbags like this him.

Just read the article. Swiss-born American working for an LA company. Now that's a shit cocktail if I ever heard of one. LOL

I don't get why he is even on TV ?

My friend is so called Pickup artist, he is really crazy and can speak to any women even if she is with bf he dont care, also bang a lot :)

Yeah lets ban everything that hurts anyones little feelings.So much freedom.But this is britain, where they just love a good ol nanny state and cuckolding is no1 pasttime activity

Well its not like he was a UK citizen. It's a visa after all - you can be denied a visa for any particular reason on matter of public interest (as far as I am aware). Personally, I think it was a good call....

My understanding is that he has been denied a visa and that is totally different to being banned from ever visiting the UK. I'm sure once the storm is over and some time passed, if he were to apply for a visa it will not be a problem, in the future, as every application will be considered on its merits. It may also be relevant what kind of visa he applied for.

mm, i wonder how many new subscription he gets, ever since he is on the news

what a shitdick.

PUA kool-aide drinkers are the worst kind of people.

Years ago I was with a friend's friend in a nightclub, he was telling me all the same stuff as what Blanc does, he was average looking but he was a complete magnet for women, tried a few of his tricks and found myself surrounded by pretty ladies

Bit too shallow for me, but an interesting science all the same

that guy can't even rent a space to present his seminars any more. i doubt this is good for his business.

you can order his stuff online, sets of CDs..

I guess im not mad at him so much, because if a girl falls for this abusive courtship, then they just deserve each other

then again I have never been in an abusive relationship and I never will

doubt that guy couldn't walk into a nightclub now without getting punched the fuck out. being a social pariah is not good for business.

All press is good press. I never heard of him prior to this.

I think they have a high success rate with women who have an IQ of room temperature.

agreed, that or lower

He goes around choking women in public. I hope I run into him one day and he pulls this shit, because I will rip his fucking balls off.

Of course, they never choose women with a backbone, because they're scared little punks who need to leave real women alone and go get a job bottoming at TSseduction.com

You can easily pick up women by appearing confident. They are desperate for you to woo them. No need to pay someone that tells you to chant pokemon at cooch

The news has ISIS, Keystone pipeline, Florida shootings, and other major events and just why are they giving him airtime if they hate him?

Your comment is correct but why give him any attention at all?

Exactly.

We do lobbying differently in the UK, but it's just as effective.

YesSignals - Body language gestures women use to attract, flirt, pick up and sedcue men. :thumbsup

Do they lease their content?

for $200 you can buy it and rewrite it in your own words :)

While he may be an ass.

Is this a reason to ban someone from the UK.

We are supposed to have freedom of speech in the UK.

It becomes a dangerous matter when people are banned for simply speaking.

Simply put, someone could come to the UK who wants to expose part of the system as corrupt. It would be easy for the government to ban them.

We are already putting people into prison without charge because they are expressing (or we are told they are) extremist views.

I do not know about you, but I would be interested to listen to an extremist muslim (for example) on his/her views. They are not going to convert me. But I may find what they have to say interesting and thought provoking. I may think they are talking utter rubbish. But I would wish to listen. And not have my government ban them from speaking.

You guys are funny... of course freedom of speech should be protected LOL

WTF

But freedom of grabbing random girls heads and jamming it into his crotch? Should this be legal?????? Would you like him to do this to your sister, daughter, niece, cousin?
... is this fair to the female victims? Call them whore, bitch stupid, idiot, fat, anything but touching? this is on another level imo

I am a pua too.. my methods are pretty simple.. I will teach you the basics.

get drunk, combine beer and shots to boost your confidence level..this is very important because this will attract women.

Make stupid jokes with your friends. Racist jokes are always great to make friends.. Women will notice you for this, and will probably think you are interesting.. Drink some more now...order some shots..

Drink some more.. and add coke if you can handle it.. be loud and rude to random people... As you will understand this shows even more confidence! Great work.., you are almost there...

Now.. this is time to make your move... there is a good chance you can't talk normal anymore... so to solve this we go to a filthy strip club with cheap hookers..

practice.. practice.. . practice... and one day you too will master the art..

If he or indeed anyone does that in the UK, then its a crime.

I could go to uni, and learn how to make an atom bomb. If I make one, its a crime. Be its not to learn about it (well these days it may be in the UK).

As I wrote in previous post, he was not banned from the UK.
He was simply denied a visa and there is a big difference.
