All these Christian LPFM's popping up around Miami

[Ai4i]

I wonder why these formats are so atypical (no hyphen) of the Creole (kreyòl) pop, hippity-hoppity, and reggæ, heard so often the undocumented stations?

WVGK on 94.5, by where I-75 begins is Spanish Christian
WLJM on 95.3, on Biscayne Blvd where North Miami meets North Miami Beach is English Christian
WPSI on 98.7, on the Datran tower near the Dadeland mall is Spanish Christian

They want to take over the world with there(sic) garbage

No.

I think their intent is to save the world as their scriptures and faith teach them.

No person's faith is "garbage" if it respects the right of other to practice a different faith.

I think it is that members of the Haitian and other communities don't know about things like LPFM and likely could not afford the legal help needed to file for one. Further, they are from marginalized segments of the community and may feel that there is an entitlement to have a "voice" even if it means breaking the law.

A number of years ago, a hip-hop pirate located next to Power on the dial; they even sold ads. They did it by going to clubs and saying that they would cause fights and get the club shut down if they did not advertise. Disrespect for the law, either as a reaction to a perception of exclusion or because of lack of education seems to be a characteristic of a number of the pirates that have made statements over the years. And then you have the religious pirates, who feel that it is not only their right to have a voice, but a divine right.

Then there is reggae station, WZPP-LP in Hollywood, FL, which runs one screaming underwriting announcement after another, ad infinitum, ad nauseum, just as those undocumented stations love to do.
