Stevie Wonder rules out Florida

 

Florida's 'Stand Your Ground' law that permits the use of a weapon based on a perceived threat of physical harm stands between Stevie Wonder and any future concerts in the Sunshine State.  During a Quebec concert Sunday (7/14), Wonder told his audience, "I decided today that until the 'Stand Your Ground' law is abolished in Florida, I will never perform there again."  Wonder added that he would also rule out appearing in any other location with a similar law on its books, adding. '...for those of you who've lost in the battle for justice, wherever that fits in any part of the world- we can't bring them back. What we can do is let our voices be heard.'
