    R you getting my point? R you in agreement? R we right???
    And I looked up all of your 100 posts and found: NOTHING worth anything!!! So, what have you got against the letter R? What, in fact, have you got, at all, besides negativety? What, in fact, do you, have you EVER contributed to this forum???? NOTHING but bull****...(and lap dancing)!
    Ahhh, Mobile PCP, what are you high on now???? PCP??

    No wonder!! What are you? A facist? What you say or want only works in selective circumstances (namely: people for whom you "can't stand their presence")??? Wow: how loverly ... You are a perfect example of not wanting a "jury of my peers"! Say one thing with passion, and then, change when circumstances permit! What a loser....

    Hmmm...he got booted off of 6 Clear Channel station and suddenly that's censorship? I didn't hear a peep from y'all when CC kicked Bubba the Love Sponge off the air! Have y'all got something against Sponges???
    Listen to be honest I didn't even know the guy was still around. I have never been a fan and believe me I've listened to him for far more hours than I care to admit (long car pool ride in AZ with only one channel to listen to). HellsBells if his show is still popular in the markets that were dropped I guarantee he will be picked up by another syndicator.
    As an aside back in my younger years I listened to a guy by the name of the Tennessee Midnight Rambler. The guy was a freakin' hoot and always in trouble with the FCC. Suddenly a couple of years after I graduated from college he disappeared, but now I understand he's back. Take a listen to his audio files. It was pretty risky stuff 20+ years ago!
    I only post using 100% recycled electrons!!!

    Stay on the bomb run, boys. I'm going to get them doors open if it hair lips everybody on Bear Creek.

    yup, and here i was wondering how long he could keep hidden under his new name. 3 days of posting and he starts up again.

    Well, it's not quite that easy. He is on public airways, during the day, and you can't define his audience as you can with pay channels on cable networks. What that means is that kids of all ages are able to listen to this show. If he proves to be offensive...and of course he does everyday...then I have to agree that shutting him down would be appropriate…Do I agree with the increased fines proposed by the FCC…well, if $27000 a pop didn’t open anyone’s eyes to their own ill doing, then $270,000 sure has, and it might just make a difference, things are out of hand.

    As far as things going out of hand, I watched Survivor last night, the fag was faced off in a challenge and lost, so before being faced off again, he takes off his pants and starts swinging his thing around to fend people off, rubbed himself right up against a female contestant…where was the censorship…where were the criminal assault changes!!! Oh, that’s right, they warned us of “explicit content” right before the scene.

    Watched The OC the other night, they got a MILF (Mother I’d Like to F___) making booty calls with her daughters 18 year old ex-boyfriend. Ok, where is the responsibility in that!!!!!!???? I actually like that show, but am appalled by the content! My kids will never watch a show like that when they are teens, but I am sure all of their friends will!

    You all think it's cool that you got someone banned...you relish it. I have little respect for that. If all of you could just let things go, I am sure that all members could coexist. But you all are the ones that exhibit the power around here…guys like Trip have little chance of acceptance. Grow up…for the sake of us all! (You too Trip)

    Since when did Clear Channel become the government, and when did a company telling someone to clean up their act become an affront to Freedom?

    Hey Trip, shooter, whatever, if you are going to come back under another name, quit the ****ing bull**** already. Or are you now going to say that I am under some strange cliqueish mind control as well.

    Perhaps a slightly more balanced take on the subject.

    Personally I never thought he was very funny anyway so no big loss.

    Then you have serious issues. One must learn to laugh at life.
    When the took all the jews. I did not complain for I was not a jew. When they took all the christians. I did not complain for I was not a christain. When they came for me. I was alone and had no one to stand up for me.

    We must stand together for even if we hange together. IF we stand alone we will surely all hang seperatly.

    Yeah, I woke up on the wrong side of the fence. Someone stop the world, I just want to get off now…

    WORD!

    don't get me started agreeing with you Ya_know. Might be the end of sanity as we know it.

    Life sucks then you die
    Howard has been overly contraversial in his shows and deserves to be reined in hes not the first and wont be the last.
    The words Good Morning Vietnam come to mind.

    Someone once said give me liberty or give me death then some fool shot him and said I rule. You die.

    Not really but if we had more like you he would have.

    We each judge a situation on its merits as observed by our own view point and our own set of personnel constructs no two people are ever in the same camps at the same instant in time that is what makes us unique and able to freely air our views.

    This said we live in a civilised society and in this society we must have compasion and understanding for our neibours set of values weather we agree or not so to say it breeches the freedom of speech in this case is an absurd and hypocritical statement to make in any sense of true values.

    He has clearly and intentionally "gone outside the box" with many of his broadcasts so has ultimatly brought it upon himself to be up for dismissal from any contracts that may be between his company and those of the broadcasters.
