if you have a hate-radio station that has spent 50 years dehumanizing the very citizens they are supposed to serve.

The people who work at that station. Those that answer the phones. Those that sell advertisement, the Morning Drive host, they are all local.

I bet their studio and offices are probably right there in Minneapolis.

They eat at the same restaurants.

They send their kids to the same schools.

They attend the same concerts and sporting events.

They enjoy all that the city has to offer, while working to destroy it.

You can, actually, and any prosecution that results from reaction to the shouting are not First Amendment cases. WhiskeyGrinder Jan 18 #6
