        So we are just being clear here that the Left is applausing authoritarianism...Well bravo on your being truthful.

        Just to be clear here the Right is supporting a pirate radio station that has been unlicensed since 2013 for flaunting the rule of law.

        Totally missed the point, huh? Also, direct threats of violence (which Jones has consistently done for years) is NOT protected speech and thus subject to censorship ✌🏼

        Hahaha Alex Jones is obviously comedy to me... Are you going to advocate CNN, who got us into the IRAQ war even though that was fake news? No right? Why not?

        to everyone who's going to read the headline and not the article... it was shut down because it was a pirate station that was operating without a license since 2013

        Free speech doesn't apply to using designated airwaves needing a license. It's like deciding to drive on the wrong side if the road cuz you want to

        I'm confused. Was the station pulled at the behest of @RealAlexJones for pirating content, or for operating sans proper licenses? And if the latter, why did it take 5 years to do so?

        “Allegedly saying the massacre was staged” Seriously? Unless we’re operating under the Trumpian rule of not believing what we see & hear, there’s nothing “alleged” about this. 🙄
