I also agree with the OP, if they really don't want ads like that on the station, they - and everyone that agrees with them - should contact the station. If enough to, I expect the station will stop running those ads. And, I am cool with that too - our choice, we can express our displeasure with a company and not use it, but "they should be stopped" is not how this country is supposed to work.
Well said. I find to understand others the old likely fake quote applies-walk a mile in his moccasins. Sadly too many think we are right so anyone not we is wrong. The southern flag. Truth I did not, I could not understand why it bothered some. I am Jewish. To understand all I needed to do was to imagine it was a Nazi flag. A simple trick all need to honestly try it.
