KJ5IRQ, Josh, this is WA6ABC Michael in Rockaway Beach. If you have Echo Link, put it next to the name there. I don't know. Sounds like you're coming through something other than Echo Link, maybe. But, yeah, it's Michael in Rockaway. It's a complex topic, free speech. Obviously, everybody should have the right to say what they want to say, as long as it doesn't put people in danger. And then that's the question mark, you know. Is it hate speech? Does it put people in danger? Those are the edges that are not so sharp in terms of free speech or not free speech. You can't yell fire in a crowded theater because you're posing a risk to the people in the theater. When you do that, you can't just say that's free speech. And the examples you cited, I think they can be argued both sides. I'm not here to argue a side or not. I just think it's a complex topic. And Jimmy Kimmel, putting back on the air. And yes, there were private companies that decided to take them off. Were they influenced by the government? Were they influenced by their business merger? It's a good question, but Jimmy's back on the air. He's not holding back. I find that refreshing. Whether you think Jimmy's funny or not, I don't think is really the point. I think that somebody who's an entertainer gets to say what he wants to say. Even the stuff he said that got him taken off the air. Which if you check it, it had nothing to do with Kirk. It had to do with the shooter and what his leanings were one way or the other way. But yeah, complex topic. And you guys have very strong opinions on these things. I don't have such a strong opinion. I'm just focused on getting through each day. Which is hard enough for me. I'm in the process of moving. I don't want to time out. I'll send it back to Nat from WA6ABC, Michael and Rockaway.
