"Some folks who call themselves conservatives, would go back to prohibition, if they could."

You do not understand the point. Think deeper.

What this is about is people want to be treated with respect. People really don't want to tune into something and have their intelligence insulted. Maybe people on some sort of substance will have pleasure with the lowest common denominator for a short while. The majority of Americans are not the lowest common denominator. There has to be a minimum standard for communication.

I do understand the point, YOU think deeper. Hillary types in the future will claim that YOUR speech is not giving them their due respect (for example if you were saying perhaps that "GAYS should not be married" it might be considered disrespectful by some gays)... and any website where you expressed that opinion could then be censored.

It's called muzzling free speech. and it's not any more legal or right to do it, just because it offends you or me. We have no constitutional right to NOT be offended by what we hear in the public arena. on the contrary. Potentially being offended by others speech is the price we pay for our own right to speak our minds.

You have no right to NOT BE OFFENDED. Neither do I. That goes double when we are considering using the power of the FCC to do so, either through direct regulation or back door "persuasion".

At some point hillary types will say YOUR or MY stated position on issues lies beneath the level of civil discourse the law allows... and use power to stiffle us.

Then it will be too late. And from the comments I read here amongst us supposed conservatives, it already is.

Having said that, I never listen to howard and have found him repulsive in the past. I don't want him censored. I want to have the right to choose to listen to whomever I want, not have it sorted, censored and altered to fit ANY one group's perspectives on morality, right, wrong or practicality. Being an adult, I would rather maintain the right to change radio stations, without having them altered for me by nannystate lovers... of the left OR the right.

Evidently community standards is an alien concept to those who like to wallow in the gutter.

I prefer to be able to put the radio on, turn the dial, and not be assaulted by gratuitous vulgarity, racial or ethnic insults.

I don't want to hear anything that I wouldn't want to hear my children say in my presence or that I wouldn't say in their presence.
