Things bother me as well. Personal preferences do not...it is a free country.

Can't go much further...I get offended when lied to...THAT bothers me. I get offended when people are hurt, especially when it's done with intent to hurt, whether verbally or not, because I believe words matter. I hate being misled....I hate when people are labeled...

Those are some things that bother me, more than a small group of people calling a radio station and one station playing along. Only a minority make these "side issues" to be news. As I said, more shocking to me was a network giving so much time to ONE radio station decision.

We seem to be narrow in our scope of things, while ignoring what really counts.

I know I am in the minority, but what I learned when young, had solidified as I matured, those moral attributes remain more important to me.

You are correct that PEOPLE are the answer....People can either reinforce bad action by remaining silent and accepting ,or they can speak up. BUT, priorities are important
