Student protesters want talk-show host Savage fired

Latino college students who spent a week fasting to call attention to the Dream Act are demanding the firing of radio host Michael Savage for saying on the air: "Let them fast until they starve to death."

About two dozen young people from across the state - including four from San Jose - are also demanding apologies from 350 radio stations throughout the country that air the program, "The Savage Nation."

Zealots in our government and law enforcement want to dictate what goes over our airwaves, using repressive speech laws in England and Canada as a model for their utopia. Mr. Savage has been very critical of some senators and district attorneys on several high profile cases, so one must wonder who is actually behind the move to get him fired. What ever you think of Michael Savage, he certainly has a right to express his opinion. His affiliates must be freeped to show your support of free speech.

If you’re drawing flak, you’re over the target.

Amazing, he tells em to starve and they do it.

Now if he’d just tell em to go home, the whole illegal problem would be solved :)

"Let them fast until they starve to death."

Oh no, I said the same thing. Should I be worried?

"All we're trying to do is get an education," said Alba Cardenas, 22, who attends San Jose State University under a California law that allows undocumented students to pursue public higher education if they pay for it themselves.

Hey ICE, we just found one for you, now GO DEPORT HIM!!

The Attack On Alternative Media is now in full force.

You can guess who wants to plug the leaks of a socialist-controlled speech monopoly.

One by one, with Imus now crossed off the list, broadcasters from every medium are being targetted.

FR, watch yourself!

I don’t care for Savage but in this case, the illegals have NO right to speak about the former. The illegals are criminals and should be in jail/deported instead of being given admittd into universities at taxpayer expense.

Michael Savage got under their skin. The DREAM Act is really legalized theft - of education FOR American children.

It’s the FIRST AMMENDMENT stupid.
Insured by the SECOND AMMENDMENT.
It’s a right.
Not an answer option of a multiple choice test.
GOD! I’m so repulsed by these ignorant schmucks.
They don’t need a DREAM act. They need a solid twelve years in K to 12 wherein they actually learn something other than belly button piercing and self satisfaction until tinted contact lenses are needed.

Sigh. No spicy language allowed. Gruel on the airwaves is the goal. Please, great leader, may I have another helping of controlled media? I’m very hungry.

Until these people learn that free speech extends to those who say things they don’t like, they should be returned to their country of origin.

About two dozen young people from across the state -

If they could only get two dozen people to protest this must mean Savage has major support. Seems that the consensus is "Let them fast until they starve to death."
