In light of the Trayvon Martin verdict, music legend, Stevie Wonder was one of the first musicians to openly declare his “Boycott” in performing in the state of Florida due to their “Stand Your Ground Law” . The singer stated that he will no longer play in any state that has inducted the Stand Your Ground law [including Florida]. Since Stevie’s admission, more celebrities have reportedly joined the boycott banner [including Usher, Madonna, Alicia Keys, and more], and are calling for the abolishing of this law – writes the Huffington post.
Well, rock musician/right wing extremist, Ted Nugent had a few choice words for Stevie Wonder and others – as he agrees with the decision of the court and feels that Zimmerman acted in self defense against [what he calls] a “hoodlum, pot smoking, Trayvon Martin.” Here’s what he says:
“So 700 black people, mostly young children and young people were slaughtered in Chicago last year by black people, and not a peep out of Stevie Wonder,” Nugent ranted. “Are you kidding me? What is this, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest? How brain-dead do you have to be? How strangled by denial, how dishonest, how cheap do you have to be to focus on a clearcut case where all the evidence, from the DOJ, from the FBI, from the entire army of investigative specialists in Florida determined that George Zimmerman acted in self-defense against a life-threatening attack by a hoodlum, dope-smoking Trayvon Martin?”
Nugent continues:
“I will pray for Stevie Wonder and all these other numbnuts who think that Trayvon Martin’s life is more important than the tens of thousands of slaughtered blacks at the hands of blacks,”…… “How do you go from being one of the most soulful people in the world, to being absolutely soulless”.
