Take a look at the excuses the U.S. feds gave.

I don't know if all of these people really were terrorists or not as
the feds claim, however looking at the reasons the feds gave, I don't
see any way of any legittimate ham radio operator getting out of being
accused and arrested and ruled definitely a terrorist even if you are
a legitimate law-abiding ham. You won't be able to prove you're
innocent.

The same might eventually be said for cbers also. Along with frs.gmrs
users, eventually.

You are a troll and so is the story.. you guys took this crap hook
line and sinker..

This story is bogus, look at the names in the story..."Lucifer
Barrientos"

Who, but in hell is going to name their kid "Lucifer" or even
Ramakrishna Lakshminaramayanan. Google William Roberts and terroist,
not one hit, nothing, nada.

The only place you can find this bogus story is on Usenet.

Actually, there are some Doctor Who books written by a guy whose last
name really is Lucifer.

Lofficer is French for Lucifer.

Yes the story is bogus. I did not notice the date on it until
afterwards.

However it was very plausible since in the past,I have actually
experienced similar catch-22 situations by certain self-appointed
cops who turned out to be hams.

What is it with ham radio that seems to attract all of the self-
appointed radio cops???

Not sure, never ran into these folks, but I have heard of them.
Mostly OO's hanging out on 75 waiting to pounce.

CB doesn't seem to attract them.

CB doesn't seem to attract anything around here but three types, drive
time users, truckers, and professional CB'er's with their big amps,
echo mics, roger beeps, noise toys, etc etc etc, so they can ride
around in their vehicles yelling, "NO NAME NO NAME NO NAME", or
"SQUISH SQUISH SQUSIH", or "CB FAGGOT CB FAGGOT CB FAGGOT" or "DAVE
MADE DAVE MADE DAVE MADE", or varibles of such. *Quite amusing for
about 10 seconds listening tor grown men acting like a bunch of
morons.

Which is why we call it, at least around my parts, the Children's Band
Radio.

This isn't anything against all hams

This isn't anything aganst all CB users

It's just a certain few that seem to give all hams a bad name.

Ditto

Come to think of it, it's not jst hams. GMRS seems to attract them
also.

It seems like radio services requiring a radio license attracts all of
the self-appointed radio cops.- Hide quoted text -
