One Veterans View of Jon Justice or Whatever His Name Is

So then why do  conservative morally grounded citizens not rebuke him?
Can you imagine this man’s aberrations,  laced with some obvious adolescent development issues of his own, being in the same room with Ronald Reagan, George Will, William Buckley, George Bush Sr. or Mayor Bob Walkup? They would send him to the principal’s office.
Were his rants to be in a ramada at Reid Park, or a platform at the 4th Ave. Street Fair, the probability is high that he would be violating laws regarding the inciting of riots.  Do you think he could speak the way he does in the Armed Forces where morality and decency still reigns?
Radio talk show formats originally were collateral to campaigning, not obsessive compulsive outlets  for identity politics that curiously attract the same OCD mindset and individuals who have no other core identity. Some folks can only feel themselves in opposition.
We now must govern, not campaign 24/7.  While I am not a fan of Woodrow Wilson,  I can certainly understand what inspired him to shut down radio shows during time of war.  What end do these shows serve?
Get a library card.
I say, ask the sponsors to show some mettle and pay all these narcissists enough to go on sabbatical for 90 days and give us some time to care for our brethren.  Just 90 days, that’s all. Give us a break for 90 days, and use that time to bring to light the work of all the unsung enlightened ones in Tucson.
Talk about the transition program for returning veterans at the U of A, talk about the free retreats at the Merritt Center. Interview a different veteran everyday. Talk about healthy living issues. Create free tutoring centers for students with on air answers to questions.
Toss out the nationally syndicated hosts and give the airways to local clergy and local psychologists. It would revive the local economy and put Tucson First, which has never happened since the idea was launched.
Give more air time to sanity. Allow the likes of John Scott, a man of manners and decency, to create a new Tucson with some of the most innovative radio in the nation.
Radio has the bully pulpit. Use it for the sunum bonum, not the swamp it has become. Tucson could well become known as the city that revived radio the old fashion way–with courtesy, class and culture.

    Above is a site connected to Jon Justice/104.1 FM, one of Justice’s shills works there, she is headlined on his show weekly, note the fact he shills for this site and they for him, profits drive these folks, only way to fight hate radio, television is the way they did it during the 1960’s with the bus boycotts, right wingers love one thing above all else, money! Greed & avarice is their bible, motto, when they talk Christian family values, piety, compassion out one side of their “forked tongues”, remember they hate the poor, naked, hungry those sick and in prison as all deserving of their fates, now how contradictory is that, how false prophet is that?  Jesus had a rich man come to him wishing to follow him, imagine today a rich person of any political leaning right, left or moderate makes no difference only differences is right wingers have no guilt for their wealth, prosperity, left wingers feel a bit of guilt, but both would do as the rich man did in Jesus’s time, go away sad, unable to do as he requested, give up their wealth to the poor, that was his requirement to follow him, now I know this is silly but lip service Christianity is not going to fool Jesus on judgment day, in fact one is either a atheist or a blind biblical goat for him to not know you! The most favorite of my bible passages is the saying for a “rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven is going to be as hard as a camel going trhough the eye of a needle”! The rich will have to dismount them camels and then walk taking either the narrow hard road or the wide easy one, but each leads to a different destination!
    Reality is we need to choose our own paths, do we feed the poor or the rich hatemongers in our society? Do we follow Jesus or Satan? The bible clearly states we will know the false prophets by which proceeds from their very mouths, when did Jesus preach hate, greed was good?

    Can we please stop the historical revisionism that pretends that characters like Buckley were any different from the Republican bigots of today ?

    1. My reference to these gents is one of IQ,  grasp of  the dynamic antecedents of history, dialectic, rhetoric, syllogistic thinking and debate that has an end game beyond hearing the repetition of ones ideology like a drumbeat to a tribal people who have migrated.
      Yes,Tip, I am aware of the infamous debate between Buckley and Gore Vidal, which was not an episode of Miss Manners. Nor, was there any absence of the now overused word, vitriol.
      However, I am certain that the salient difference between a fictitiously named Jon Justice and William Buckley would be their SAT scores. If the latter had one.

      1. >I am certain that the salient difference between a fictitiously named Jon Justice and William Buckley would be their SAT scores
        While that may be true, Buckley used his inherited wealth and education for purposes such as supporting segregation and nuking brown people.
        Personally I prefer bigots with lower SATs who are less effective – like “Justice”.

    1. Rebel:
      You are correct:  Justice is NOT the only one to do harm.  Add in:  Hannity, O’Reilly, Savage, Coulter, Beck, Dobbs, and many more of their ilk.
      Regarding the “Three Sonorans”:  There is no equivalent.  It’s a different mission, a different purpose.  3S has been defending against biased and unnecessary change at the state level.  Justice is truly the dangerous one in reinforcing racism and hatred . . . very negative human attributes.
      I applaud 3S in ALL of his successful missions.

      1. The mere fact that some cannot make the distinction between these two is as disconcerting as the speech itself.  The absence of discernment skills is what makes for blind followers.  The research that is conducted to capture and maintain listening audiences is sheared of intellectual content and fashioned for moo- cow like followers. The Glen Beck Show has a staff of Psychologists, that he pays handsomely, just to  get you lathered up. It works, but only if you are not much of reader, and care little about accuracy and objectivity. See Forbes Magazine expose on Beck.
