Why is Rush allowed to incite riots here in America? Has our legal system, in this country, become

[IsItJustMe]

so maligned and inept because of this administration, that it can no longer take action against right wing nuts, using our public air waves, calling for violence.

There is something very seriously wrong here.

1. Imagine the furor if Randi Rhones or Mike Malloy said that. n/t

[RazBerryBeret]

5. I wish one of those two

would call for riots @ the Republican convention...
and see what happens!

[HereSince1628]

2. It's all about dancing around the law...this is beyond street level

feelings of what should be common sensical.

DU needs broadcasters and lawyers who represent them to explain this.

7. I understand exactly what Rush said, and believe me, I get it. Is it because he used the word

'dream' that he can get away with this type of speech? Is it a technicality?

[lonestarnot]

3. Yeah, just why is he allowed? Is he sharing his drugs with the right people?

4. I've e-mailed the FCC -- anybody else?

I know we should inundate his company, advertisers, etc., but I'm thinking if the FCC fines him, it'll be big news and have the trickle down effect.

Has this been covered by the media AT ALL?


EDIT -- there's a simple complaint form to fill out - very easy and quick. www.fcc.gov

11. That's what should be done. Make Kevin Martin take notice of something other than "f&ck" on the air

Kick

6. Why is he allowed to incite the subversion of the nominating process?

Any newspaperman who did that in years gone by would have found himself cooling his heels in the county lockup. What Lamebawl ordered, and what continues to happen, is a felony in several of the states it's happened in.

Face it, the Justice Department belongs to THEM and there is no way they're going to take that fat Nazi down unless we grab it back.

8. Do you have examples

of newspapermen who were prosecuted for what they said about elections?

13. I know the Nader Trader thing went to court. Don't remember the outcome though.

This is the best I could find in a quick search.

9. SOP as far as I know. IOKIYAR.

10. So does this mean Blackwater will be there.?

That is my take on that rant. Staged unrest by the neocons.

12. wrong spot

[movonne]

14. And his dope problem that he seemed to have gotten away with...If this had

been a dem calling for riots in the streets, well you know...
