Mark…

You truly have no concept of what an “amateur radio station” is. Have a read at http://www.rac.ca and learn about it before you write such nonsense.

BTW – you break the law – you pay the price of doing so.

It’s amazing how people here got upset about a kid operating a pirate radio station. That’s hilarious. “What a bad kid those parents have raised…setting up an amateur radio station. Deport them!” What a bunch of hicks we have here. Live and let live. He didn’t hurt anyone. Let him duke it out with the bureaucracy.

Jayhaed didn’t even remotely follow safety rules. He was also under age. You can’t compare those two situations fairly. We had to wait nearly a year to get our licensing done so we could play music legally for our online station.

Funny how when slaves follow the dictates of the masters they are not punished. In my dream world people can live with out the violence of the state, but surely there would be rules. The rules of the market would mostly rule out a radio program devoid of compelling content. My world is not so dreamy however, for instance, there has existed in Akwesasne an unlicensed radio station for over 20 years and there has yet to be a problem with it. Other than its format sucking. IMO. The bingo is fun, if you like that sort of thing.

Quite correct Eric. It’s become very quiet from over in Jayhaed land. Sounds like the lawyers talked some sense into them.

Funny how I obey the rules of society and do not “lose my stuff”. He had notice that action would take place, he obviously is aware of the internet and could search Industry Canada regulations etc. followed the rules and we would not be reading this.

Now Rezrevolt surely even in your dream world there are some rules and regulations to follow. Yes, I agree with you in that the current ones are too stringent and over protective of certain societal and corporate interests.

What bothers me most about Jayhaed is that he’s a poster boy for rules and regulations and “Big Brother” can actually support the status quo based on his actions.

YAWN. My my my, quite a group of little fascists spewing here. Obviously the kid is angry at being robbed by the RCMP for having the audacity not to ask permission to turn on his own equipment. I would be angry too, to be stripped of my property by a bunch of flat footed bureaucrats who think they own the electromagnetic spectrum. This is classic protection of the status quo for the benefit of the power elite and nothing more. Great how all the “rules” only serve to empower current businesses to the detriment to upstart entrepreneurs. The lot of you clamoring for deportation and sanctions should examine your own psyche, for you are demonstrating that you are naught but a authoritarian sociopath.

Welcom to the new generations of kids….they wont take no for answer, they thing there above
all, and thats what happens when you have no Parental authority….as the parents are scared these
days to do anything cause the kids might call all kinds of support groups that will put the parents
in trouble… but for this case i think he’s just one big fat loser.
Fined him, and his parents for wasting police time
