I heard the comments on the air and thought they were a little much... but not too out of line with what he typically says. Curtis Sliwa was the replacement and he's kind of an idiot.

"Jay Severin, the fiery, right-wing radio talk show host on Boston’s WTKK-FM radio station, was suspended today after calling Mexican immigrants "criminaliens," “primitives,” “leeches,” and “women with mustaches and VD,” among other incendiary comments. "

Severin is an idiot, but none of the above sounds incorrect.

He's called them criminaliens for ages. Yesterday he just said that American emergency rooms are like condos or whatever.

it wasn't the FCC that suspended him. the FCC can't do that (1995 deregulation). It was WTKK that suspended him. the "women with mustaches and VD" comment was hilarious. The other stuff he's said plenty of other times. This show he was very outspoken about how mexicians come to the US only to spread disease. It's not that they were "out there" but a lot of them seemed "out of place" even for this douche.
It would be like this convo going on
"so we are talking about the gay marriage bill before the NH house. ALL HOMOS ARE FAGGOTS AND GOD PUNISHED THEM WITH AIDS AND NOW THEY ARE PUNISHING US WITH AIDS AND THAT'S ALL THAT THEY CAN DO. So the NH house are a bunch of liberal domestic enemies of the constitution."

So let me ask you this, how do you think one becomes legal? Do you think you can just apply, wait, then get in? Or do you think all you have to do is marry an American? If not, how do you think someone comes in legally? If you don't have a relative here, and aren't a student, you have basically no chance whatsoever of being accepted. And i don't know about you, but if i were born in a third world country, and my options were to live in poverty and not be able to support myself or my family, or go to another country that has more resources, jobs, and opportunities than would EVER be available to me..i think i would try to get accepted legally into that country.... only to realize that getting INTO that country without close relatives already being citizens is near impossible, and if I did get accepted, I'd have to wait 5-10years (still very rare)to actually move there, i am pretty sure i would take a chance and try to sneak in.

My reasoning would probably go something like this... Why shouldn't i have the chance to work hard and actually support myself and the ones i love? Because i wasn't born in the country? Wait a minute, i thought the US was started entirely by immigrants? Well, besides the Native Americans that the "immigrants" slaughtered to near genocide, but that's off the topic. Because i wouldn't want to slaughter anyone, i just want a chance to work hard, to pay my taxes.. ya know, have something that resembles a normal life..

Complain all you want about immigrants taking jobs from "Real Americans" But i still haven't met a single American who was upset because his job cleaning dishes was taken by immigrants. Sure maybe people are angry with immigrants for working for less money than is the norm for a given profession (almost always labor, it's probably pretty hard to get an office job without papers.) but again, anyone could do that, you could go out and work for less than an immigrant and take all their work, but you wouldn't want to because you would feel "cheated". Because your an American and you should be paid more than a wetback... or if you don't feel that way, why should you have the right to the job and they don't?

Let's look at a similar situation. Cars used to be put together by people. Actual people putting all the parts together, but then one day people designed machines to do it cheaper.. and all those people lost their jobs. We didn't try to make the assembly machines illegal because they "Hurt the American worker". That's just part of the fun of capitalism. Your job CAN suddenly be worth less, for a million reasons, and i bet you don't complain when companies compete for your money by lowering prices, why should it bother you when your being competed with? It's not your right to have a job, and getting mad because someone wants to do your job cheaper than you is plain ol stupid. Go to school, do something that pays better, or deal with it and make less money.

I personally know an illegal immigrant and I live with a bunch of legal ones (my parents/grandparents). The illegal guy I know "runs" his own painting/flooring/tile/bathroom/blahblahwhatever "company" and goes around charging EXORBITANT amounts of money for his work. Turns out you can get it done for less by Americans. I don't really know what the point is here but, come on guy? $1400 to paint a few walls?

AndrewBastard said: "we all know 9/10 of these fuckers aren't taking any steps to become legal."

While i understand where your coming from, it's still a pretty big generalization. You'd probably assume i'm biased because of my wife, but because of her I've met and spent time with more illegals than most citizens have. And whether or not you beileive it, i know for a fact that 9/10 of the ones i know have been trying to become legal since years before they even came here.

Let's take my wife for example, she was a surgeons assistant in Brazil and worked 60-70 hours a week there, and still made just enough that her and her son had to eat nothing but rice for two meals a day, Never mind any sort of amenities. During which she spent just under 10grand, and 4 years with lawyers and applications to get even a temporary visa. Which even after all that didn't happen. So instead of accepting an inpovershed life for her and her son, she paid another 5grand to get smuggled into this country. Yup, i said 1 5 grand. And she has spent almost another 5 while she has been here to try and become legal... which may I add, even though she isn't legal, she has an IRS tax ID number, and pays her taxes every year just like you or me.

So again, i could see how people think the way that they do, but try to put yourself in a similar situation that my wife was in, and think whether or not you would have done anything differently.

I still think that people NOT trying to become legal, or people that got smuggled in without trying to get approved for a visa, or people who even do both of those but DON'T pay taxes should be deported. I just think that too many Americans put all immigrants in the same category; and when that group of people are all looked at as lazy criminals who wanna take our jobs, and destroy our country it's really not right, and i think they need to me informed better.

If this were to happen it basically becomes unfair. Why should they be allowed to live in the country just because they tried to do it legally but gave up and did it illegally?
"Oh you had good intentions so you can stay here. The rest of you get the fuck out." Doesn't cut it.

martins, do you understand that "trying and giving up" as you put it really is more like
Trying, not succeeding, then accepting the life of a bum? You might think if you keep trying you can eventually get in, but that's not true. Without relatives here, you'd have to wait almost 10years in some cases, and even then only have about a .5% chance of getting in? At which point your children would have had to go into prostitution to survive. I'm not exaggerating here either, that's what it comes down to, life or death. And if you think that when the people fail at attempting to get in legally they should just suck it up, and live a life with conditions that our government would deem unfit for a pet, or just die off, your not only cold hearted, your delusional. You'd do the same thing.

No one has brought up the complete lack of desire to seal us up from those nasty Canadians. I wonder why? Maybe because they have primarily white skin and frankly, most have no desire to immigrate to the US. I'm sorry but this comes down to the fear of brown people.
Now, as far as Severin is concerned, let him stay on the air. You don't have the right in this country to be protected from being offended. We need voices like Severin to show us how ridiculous people can really become. He's a side show attraction and he appeals to the lowest of our sensibilities. If you don't like what is being said, use your right to protest and turn it off. If you really want him off the air, do it yourself and turn the dial.

And if you think that when the people fail at attempting to get in legally they should just suck it up, and live a life with conditions that our government would deem unfit for a pet, or just die off, your not only cold hearted, your delusional. You'd do the same thing.


When did I say they should suck it up? You clearly have a bias here and that's okay but you have to understand that illegal immigration is ILLEGAL, no matter how positive the outcomes are for the "perpetrator." But please don't ever call me cold hearted or delusional.

I don't know what that is supposed to mean. The FCC's job is to ensure that two frequencies are not being used at the same time or are too close to each other. They are supposed to regulate the industry, not content. We can argue over whether they should regulate content but that was never their original job. I understand that they have grown, however, it does seem that they have overstepped their boundaries. If we are going down that path, it does seem that the fairness doctrine would come into play: if you can regulate content (the arguement being that you need to look out for the welfare of the listeners) then many opposing points of view need to represented equally in all markets to ensure that people are receiving many different perspectives to not get an over abundance of one. Fart fart fart, poopoo.

I guess that you don't deal with FCC regulations at all. FCC does and has controlled content since it's inception:

That's why cable doesn't go full blown on t&a, but gets away with more than network TV. Cable isn't controlled by the FCC, but if they went too far then they would.

The more enraging thing is how subjective these laws are. It looks like they were originally written to be interpreted as we go along so the contemporary culture could determine what is to be considered "indecent", but they have been so misused to essentially black mail stations into censoring their hosts and create an environment of fear for your job if you say something that is deemed "offensive". I own XM and am very pleased with the content and general lack of restrictions there in, but I can only assume that that will be regulated soon enough. Boo content restrictions, yay offensive shit.

Well then explain something to me please. When this scenario happens, what do you think these people should do? You don't agree that they should be allowed to stay, because like you said "a crime is a crime" So what other options are there? I can't think of any besides either sucking it up or sneaking in.

Maybe you don't quite understand what i was saying, but in the situation that i was talking about, there really AREN'T any other options. And saying we shouldn't allow them to stay when they've done everything in their power to do it legally (because a crime is a crime) does imply something in the "suck it up" catagory.

Now i don't think that should be our protocol, I think what needs to happen is major immigration reform, but until that point, our country was build on the idea that all men are created equal, and no matter where you were born, and no matter what color your skin, you should have the same chance as anyone else to have a life not overriden with poverty. So while obviously i can't deny that it's illegal, i can say that there SHOULD be a protocol for the situation i gave, and it should include giving these people a chance at life.



toggletoggle post by ouchdrummer   at May 4,2009 1:15pm
let me add martins,
What would you do in that situation? You've tried for years, cannot get in, can't feed your children, and will need to pull your children out of 4th and 6th grade to work 15 hour days to pay for rent (1 bedroom for your family) and food(rice)?

Would you come into this country illegally? Do you have another solution? Or would you suck it up?

My point was that there aren't options, so what were you suggesting?




toggletoggle post by Martins   at May 5,2009 11:47am
Look, if I had my way, it would become infinitely easier to become a citizen but it's not. I'd much prefer an illegal immigrant return to their country rather than have something shitty to them happen or do something shitty and get away with it because they're illegal. I side with the law whenever it comes to immigration because I personally know people who have done it within the past few years and they also lived in shitty situations. The brother had to have brain surgery when he was like 8 after being shot in the head by someone trying to rob their house of what little they had. The mother didn't have a job. The father was very very old. The sister was too young to be of any help. They've been living legally in the states now for 6 or 7 years. The mother is a nurse. The brother is going to art school. The sister is studying pre-med. It's possible.

wow, so way to not answer the question. What would YOU do in that situation? It sounds like your saying if they can't do it legally they should "suck it up" and go back to where they came from. Just because a family you know got in doesn't mean familys i know that have tried for YEARS haven't gotten in. So THATS why i called you heartless and delusional.

Calling me names gets us nowhere.
If I were in the situation, I would most definitely try to get in legally first. Take the proper steps and map out how feasible it would be for me. If it were really IMPOSSIBLE (as I doubt it would be, maybe incredibly hard but not impossible), I would find a way to sneak in. The thing is, it does take hard work to manage to get in here legally but people have to do it. It's not so much "suck it up" as much as "try, try, and try again." Things may be tough, but wouldn't the outcome be so much better?



toggletoggle post by ouchdrummer   at May 5,2009 1:05pm
"If it were really IMPOSSIBLE (as I doubt it would be, maybe incredibly hard but not impossible)"

Maybe you know something i don't about how to get in, but i don't just know one family who's been through this, and i've even tried to help cousins of my wife, with no success, for the entire time i've known my wife (4years) in which time my wife's son got killed selling dope to help pay rent. I know most situations aren't that bad, but thinking that none are is naive, and thinking that all in that all people in that position can get in legally if they try hard enough is also naive.

And i wasn't name calling, at first you were implying that people shouldn't come illegally no matter what, and i was trying to show you that sometimes there isn't a choice.

I and the men and women for whom, and with whom, I work have a duty to our community to ensure that every day our station offers - in partnership with You - ideas and conversation about the issues of the day which are thought-provoking, compelling, challenging, entertaining - but also always responsible, civil, thoughtful and respectful to all members of our community. This is our standard. However, recently, in making certain remarks, I failed this standard, and thus failed my colleagues and you. My remarks were hurtful, unkind and wrong. For those remarks and for failing to meet the standards you are right to expect of me, I am sincerely sorry. Most especially to the members of the Mexican community and Mexican-American community, I regret my remarks and I apologize for them. I am sorry. I want you to be an engaged and proud member of this audience, but I appreciate I must earn that privilege, every day. And I can only expect to do so by conducting a civil and intelligent conversation worthy of you, worthy of your family - whether or not you always agree with my opinions. To every person I have offended by my recent remarks: I am truly regretful and extend my apology. And to those who were not offended, I have still let you down by appealing to something less than the "best and brightest" in you, and for this I am also sorry. I am tremendously eager to renew - and make better - our ten years together of daily conversation and vigorous debate. You have my personal pledge that I will do my best to make ours the best show on radio. And, as ever, thank you for my job."
