In this YouTube commentary, Kashif Khan warns that a 5G tower is being installed on top of a school and explains that parents opposing it are legally disadvantaged by Section 704, a 1996 federal law that prohibits municipalities from denying tower placements on health grounds. He notes that the only legal standard is whether the tower complies with FCC safety limits, which were also set in 1996—long before modern smartphones, ubiquitous Wi‑Fi, or the practice of placing towers on school roofs. Khan cites a 2021 federal court decision that found the FCC’s retention of those limits arbitrary and insufficiently justified. He emphasizes that these outdated limits remain in force, while communities are barred from raising health concerns. Khan stresses that children are especially vulnerable because their thinner skulls allow more RF energy to penetrate and their brains are still developing. The video concludes with a call to action, urging viewers to share this information with parents who are likely unaware of the law and the associated health risks.

Chapters

They're putting a 5G tower directly on top of a school. And the parents fighting it are going to lose, not because they're wrong, but because of a law written in 1996. It's called Section 704. It says a town cannot block a tower over health concerns at all. So parents can bring every study they have, and legally none of it counts. The only thing that matters is whether the tower meets the FCC's safety limits. This brings me to the part that should bother you. Those limits were set in 1996, before smartphones, before Wi-Fi in every room, before anybody put a tower on a school roof. And in 2021, a federal court looked at the FCC keeping those same limits and called the decision arbitrary. The court said the agency never properly answered the evidence put in front of it. So here's where we actually are. The limits are 30 years old. A federal court already said nobody justified them, and communities are legally banned from even raising health as a concern. And kids are exactly who we should be the most careful with. Their skulls are thinner, so more of it gets through. Their brains are still developing. This is why it's so important to share this with every parent who needs to see it, because almost none of them know that this law exists.
