I've been saving money up to buy a hardcore sound system for my truck, so I can blast my hardcore music.

I'm just wondering if its legal to blast offensive music so that people may end up hearing offensive words. And thats not the intent. I just need to blast my music because I love it loud, and I have to spite rap fans. My music sounds so much better loud.

I know I want to be a lawyer, but could you help me out anyway?
I bet many would dispute the ideals behind this, I'm simply asking if it is legal. If its illegal, than I may as well spend my money on something else.

It is illegal I think in UK. Not sure in USA as some parts are pretty much lawless. Depends where you are I guess.

There are two groups of people in the world - those that hope, and those that wish. The first group hopes that nothing bad will happen. The second group wishes that they are there when it does. Which one are you?

The offensive words..prolly not illegal unless there are specific municipal ordinances about it...and yes those are constitutional. The sound level is more likely to get you busted, many municipalities have ordinances about sound levels.

my friend blares his music way loud in his car (like, you can hear it from 2 blocks away at the least) and half the stuff he listens to has "offensive lyrics" but we've never been in trouble for it yet. And we live in Utah!

Then again, you can probably get busted if you play it later at night for Disturbing the Peace.

You want to be a lawyer, but you've never heard of the phrases "noise pollution" or "disturbing the peace?"

Yes, you can get fined for playing music too loud, if it bothers someone enough to call the cops about it.

I hate it when people play music loud. Especially rap music.

Ex used the word "hardcore" too much in his(?) post.

Jay finds the best music for blasting at rap blasters to be LOUD Scottish bagpipe and drum stuff, especially folk songs.

Hah i wish it was. The amount of times i have been walking around my quiet town of Salisbury when all of a sudden I hear bad music blasting out is amazing. In my opinion I don't think its fair to force the music I like onto other people.

I know about the noise pollution issue. I just was unclear on the area of bad words.

Another type of music to blast to beat rap blasters, is some Carl Orff "O'Fortuna". Thats the best classical song ever. I have the whole CD. Its classical and it has more bass than your average rap song. Plus its powerful.

ITS HARDCORE!
