Musician Stevie Wonder has vowed to stay out of Florida until the state repeals its "stand your ground" law. The law allows people to meet "force with force" if they believe they or someone else is in danger of being seriously harmed by an assailant.
"I decided today that until the 'stand your ground' law is abolished in Florida, I will never perform there again," Wonder told the audience at a concert in Quebec on Sunday night. "As a matter of fact, wherever I find that law exists, I will not perform in that state or in that part of the world."

I will never perform there again, ok we’ll get someone else
He blindsided us.
Stevie just doesn’t see things the way I do.
Stevie who?
I checked his tours and in the 3 years since that article was published he has toured in over a dozen States with stand your ground.
The real tragedy of Stevie Wonder’s life is that he was born blind and not deaf (can’t STAND his music).
The states that have adopted stand-your-ground laws are Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts (though the term is used very loosely there), Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina (Stand Your Ground law (N.C.G.S. 14 51.3)), North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

And how many armed body guards does Stevie have?
Well damn! I would have though a blind heroin addict would have long been worm food.
If he really is still alive, I’m thrilled that he will stay away from States I like.
Stevie is scheduled to perform 28-April in Louisiana..... one of 21 States that have enacted “stand your ground” laws.
I see what you did there. Nice.
P.S.: Stevie Wonder is a terd and sucks balls when he can find them.
Oh, my. What will I do? /s
