In the article In Grove Hall,Radio Rebels Dig In i believe that the government should not be making a big deal about the radio station that is not licensed. I think this because they know that alot of people like the radio station and also that the radio staion is not doing anything bad they are just doing everything else that the other staions are doing. Except that people prefer them then other stations because they do not swear or say bad things which makes them able to listen to it with there kids there. A lot of people believe nothings wrong with it and they should leave the radio station on.

On the article about the pirate station "The voice of black Boston" it fails to mention why they have not applied for a license. This has an impact on my opinion about them needing a license or not. This is because if they can't get a license for their strong but informative content than i think they should be able to keep the station, but if its just them being lazy and not wanting to go through what everybody else does to get a license than they should be forced to get a license.

well i think that std vaccines should be mandatory so it can be for pevention and it can stop spreading.

In the article of the pirate radio , i dont think they did anything wrong. Eveyone has a right to listen to what they want and they just wanted to target the people they know were interested. i think they shouldnt fine them and let them continue with the station.

It is ok for there to be pirates radio stations. Due to that they dont harm anyone by getting heard. what i have heard is that they been saying good things.

I think that STD vaccines shouldnt be mandatory because of the affects of it. I feel as though itshould be a choice to take that vaccine. I also think that their should be a way to prevent STDs from spreading. Something like birth control but better
