Here are some of the many comments,
First, thank you for doing what dino7c wouldn't and at least providing a direction to what you are reading. Also, I'm going to simply ignore Fox commenters for the same reason I would disregard a Vancouver Canucks forum - a mixture of ignorance and stupidity breeds same.

The X92.9 Facebook thread though looks pretty much like this thread. A lot of people saying intentional, a lot saying not. Many campaigning for a suspension were saying 10-20 range, which is what a lot of people who expect a suspension here were saying at the same time. So while you posted a few extreme positions, they are still just a few extreme positions. That example does not justify dino7c's hperbolic overreaction.
