Just a regular citizen who grew with Civics classes, and a thorough knowledge of American history and how our government is supposed work for all. Knowing the difference between right and wrong, and choosing to do wrong is unacceptable to me.

::UPDATE:: Hate crime charges have now been filed following a racially charged brawl outside a Simi Valley movie theater against four white kids who brutally attacked an innocent Black kid.. One of the suspects is the son of a police officer.

Snoop went from Gin & Juice to whining about a lesbian kiss in a Pixar movie. Imagine surviving decades of censorship, police harassment, and being labeled a “threat to society”… only to turn around and fear visibility for others who’ve been marginalized just like you.

Mr. Brentwood, in 1966, there were no cable channels, so the definition used back then was "cable systems", it evolved into cable "channels" much later as history shows. You are referring to the way things are now, but they were different then, which is why I'm talking about the FCC's history.

bluesman60.bsky.social @bluesman60.bsky.social · 08/07/2025
Mr. Brentwood, at one point in time, all cable stations were under the jurisdiction of the FCC. They have a history and were around when these stations were just starting. That's why when you sue them, the case is the Government vs you, or whoever the party is suing.

FCC case against CBS for ‘news distortion’ may go far beyond precedent, scholars say
As the U.S. Federal Communications Commission probes CBS for potential violations of the agency’s rarely-invoked policy on “news distortion,” communications lawyers and FCC scholars say that the move under newly installed commission chair Brendan Carr could mark a sharp departure from agency precedent.

2/ In the past, they decided what lyrics were decent and indecent and could be broadcasted on the airwaves. This goes all the way back to the 60's. Even now, the trump administration is weaponizing them by threatening to take away TV stations licenses from them. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal...

Mr. Brentwood, I don't think I'm making myself clear. My criticism of the FCC is they are a commission under the federal government decides what's decent and indecent, and that changes according to who's on the commission at the time. When you sue them, you are suing the federal government. 1/

The FCC has been targeted Rap music way before Eminem became an artist. They have been sued so many times over First Amendment rights violations it's hard to keep count. The early rappers paved the way for artists like Eminem to be heard. firstamendment.mtsu.edu/article/rap-...

This is bullshit. Not only do ICE bounty hunters refuse to identify themselves, they won’t say where they’re taking the people they’re kidnapping. Deliberately shuffling detainees from facility to facility so families can’t find them & they miss their chance at legal counsel. (Anaheim, CA)

Yes, Kalendae, I do. I was just trying to point out the powers that the FCC had been enforcing for decades. There were tons of First Amendment cases filed against them. But that didn't stop their regulatory powers granted by congress that they still have and use. Thanks for your civility.
