Sure. Is it okay that the government can issue broadcast licenses?

Pathetic. Broadcast licenses are about permission to transmit on specific frequencies, not about censorship or the First Amendment. They are analogous to hunting licenses, which are independent of the Second Amendment. (People living in places that lack the Second Amendment can still hunt, and despite the Second Amendment, there are restrictions about when hunting may occur, and what may be hunted for us.)

I see. So if I cited some examples of stations that were fined or lost their license because of something they broadcasted, I'd be lying?

I am begging you please to ignore robertpaulsen.

He is a troll who’s only goal is to disrupt all RKBA posts by hijacking them.

His method, which has worked brilliantly so far, is to make outrageous claims and bait you into wasting your energy trying to convince him and educate him. Which is not possible, since it is not his goal.

His goal is to hijack the threads. He does so successfully anytime people respond to him.

I personally know how hard it is to let such ignorance just go without succumbing to the temptation to educate. But trust me, you only play into his hands when you fall for this temptation.

The only way to prevent him from consistently hijacking these threads is to completely ignore him and to not respond to any of his posts, no matter how outrageous or how badly he gets your goat.

I’m begging you to please ignore him in the future, for the sake of reasonable discussions on these RKBA posts. Thank you.
