Democrats aren't liberal, they just claim it to have a market which opposes that of the republicans. However, both parties are pretty much conservative.

As for the radio, that kinda' falls under the FCC's jurisdiction.

Why does the FCC even exist in the first place? They serve no practical function and actually limit freedoms which have no possible way of being percieved as harmful.

Yeah, that's discrimination. If you can't wrap your head around why that's wrong, then I don't know.

But it is only subjectively wrong, and not objectively wrong. We are individuals and as individuals it should be up to us to determine what we like and dislike and for what reasons. It is rather dangerous to say the government's role is to attack such a basic freedom.

So? Conflict isn't always a bad thing. It is a means to progression. If people are going to naturally stop being racist than they'll naturally stop being racist, if not than they shouldn't be forced to be accepting of anything. As long as people aren't actually hurting non-consenting parties than it shouldn't matter. Violence and theft should be illegal, but acting upon your own beliefs shouldn't. If I believe having attribute A makes you socially undesirable why should I have to associate with you?
