Stevie Wonder Wows Atlanta Crowd, Goes Off on Gun Violence

Before going into intermission, the singer wanted to take a poll of the audience. He told everyone who had been standing to take a seat and to only stand up if they answered “yes” to his next question.

“Do you feel that we have a gun problem in America?” he asked. The whole house stood.

“You’re able to fix the problem. If we are able to send rockets to the moon I would hope that we would have someone in the government to hold people accountable for the guns they have. I hope someone with a spirit who wants to see more people living than dying will do this because the only people making money are the gun factories and the mortuaries. I don’t care if you agree with me. I love you anyway.”

The gun problem is that not enough good guys have more of them. Since the only info that mr. wonder receives is most likely edited by his handlers, does he really know anything other than what he's fed by them? Uh, no. Shut up and sing.

Aaaaaaaaaaaa.

I’ve loved his music for so long. But I fear the oxygen deprivation at birth didn’t only take away his sight.

Shut up an sing

+1000

Why is it that idiot dems don’t get that lawful citizens like us who own guns, are protecting ourselves and our families FROM the thugs with guns?

They don’t get that criminals do not care if guns would be illegal? Duh, they are criminals, law-less, hello libtards!!! Wake the hell up!

Someone should tell him that we *can’t* send rockets to the moon any more. And that this was caused by the government.

Another moron who believes that stricter laws on the law abiding will make criminals stop shooting people.

Sadly that is true. It disarms the honest and makes desperadoes of the rest.

What’s with all these gun stories this morning? They’re all over the place, anti-gun op/eds and the such - it’s like some libtard ordered all the goons to play solitaire like in that movie. As for Stevie Wonder, blind guy has bodyguards, lots of ‘em.

What’s with celebrities making liberal political statements during shows???

Madonna urged everyone to vote during a concert in 2012. But, she told her audience they better f#$%ing vote for Obama. Great public service announcement from Madonna Ciccone.
