The Gay, Lesbian, Transgendered Shortwave Club fully supports hybrid
digital or in-band on-channel broadcasting. Letters composed on official GLT stationery have been sent to over 200 general managers of radio stations in major markets throughout the United States. More letters will be sent as funds allow. My constituency will not be bullied into silence by the noisy minority in this newsgroup. A.W.S. President G.L.T. Shortwave Club |

Do you wear your KKK sheets while listening to skywave, and then celebrate by going-out and beating-up a gay man until he's a bloody mess? You close-minded, hateful *******s disgust me. |

You people are no better than racists. Do you wear your KKK sheets while listening to skywave, and then celebrate by going-out and beating-up a gay man until he's a bloody mess? You close-minded, hateful *******s disgust me. Thank you for your moral support. I have grown so used to being attacked and ridiculed that it no longer bothers me. I regularly receive death threats from members of the shortwave newsgroup. Generally speaking, the demographic here is that of a generation born when ignorance and intolerance were the rule and any one different from them are demonized. Exhibiting no capacity for growth, they pass along their cultural wasteland to each succeeding generation because, unfortunately, they breed. It is no mystery why the radio hobby is dying a slow death. It is dominated by dinosaurs that make anyone who doesn't share their particular viewpoints and prejudices unwelcome. Instead of encouraging my efforts to bring folks into the shortwave hobby they use their time and energy to ridicule me. I've stopped counting the number of people I've encouraged to learn more about the shortwave hobby by reading this newsgroup only to be told that they are turned off by what they've seen here. And that is the saddest part of all. A.W.S. President GLT Shortwave Club |

You close-minded, hateful *******s disgust me. Thank you for your moral support. I have grown so used to being attacked and ridiculed that it no longer bothers me. I regularly receive death threats from members of the shortwave newsgroup. Why not post them? I'd like to see them. Generally speaking, the demographic here is that of a generation born when ignorance and intolerance were the rule and any one different from them are demonized. Exhibiting no capacity for growth, they pass along their cultural wasteland to each succeeding generation because, unfortunately, they breed. It sounds like you're demonizing everyone from 'their generation'. That's not very tolerant of you. It is no mystery why the radio hobby is dying a slow death. It is dominated by dinosaurs that make anyone who doesn't share their particular viewpoints and prejudices unwelcome. Hmm. It sounds like you're saying that anyone with the set of attitudes illustrated by most of the posters here is unwelcome in this group. Instead of encouraging my efforts to bring folks into the shortwave hobby they use their time and energy to ridicule me. I've stopped counting the number of people I've encouraged to learn more about the shortwave hobby by reading this newsgroup only to be told that they are turned off by what they've seen here. And that is the saddest part of all. Then why do you tell them to come here? There are plenty of other SW groups out there. You could even start your own on Yahoo. As group owner you could crush anyone who disagrees with you, thereby insuring an atmosphere of tolerance. |

You close-minded, hateful *******s disgust me. Thank you for your moral support. I have grown so used to being attacked and ridiculed that it no longer bothers me. I regularly receive death threats from members of the shortwave newsgroup. Which is illegal. You should report it to (1) Googlegroups (there's a "report it" link on every message) (2) the person's ISP, and (3) the police of both your hometown and the poster's local State Attorney General or Police. Generally speaking, the demographic here is that of a generation born when ignorance and intolerance were the rule and any one different from them are demonized. Exhibiting no capacity for growth, they pass along their cultural wasteland to each succeeding generation because, unfortunately, they breed. I've noticed. Their brains are so old, they've turned into marble. They simply lack the ability to accept new ideas, and worse, they're not even willing to try. It's like what I said to one guy on this group: "I'll bet you were a lot more open-minded in your 20s..... before you grew old and set in your ways." Well, I'm from Generation X, and we've learned to "live and let live". I'm a Republican which is supposedly a "close minded" party, but I've always supported the rights of the gay community to live however they want to live. Including marriage. (Who says it has to be only man-woman; why not man-man or woman-woman? I don't see any harm in that.) As Thomas Jefferson said, "Whether my neighbor believes in one god or many gods, matters not to me. It harms neither my person, my property, nor my rights. I will allow my neighbor to live as he chooses." Jefferson was speaking of religious freedom, but the same principle applies to ALL things as far as I'm concerned. That's what freedom means. To be able to follow your own "pursuit of happiness" whatever way works best for you. It is no mystery why the radio hobby is dying a slow death. It is dominated by dinosaurs that make anyone who doesn't share their particular viewpoints and prejudices unwelcome. Well said. Instead of encouraging my efforts to bring folks into the shortwave hobby they use their time and energy to ridicule I've noticed that "flaw" in many different groups. I belonged to an airplane club where all the members did was say, "That's not right" or "The officers suck" or make new people feel unwelcome. So I quit and went somewhere else. I've stopped counting the number of people I've encouraged to learn more about the shortwave hobby by reading this newsgroup only to be told that they are turned off by what they've seen here. And that is the saddest part of all. Yep! Take care. :-) |
