Good for them. It makes them and me both happy. I would hope all the Liberals would get mad and leave for good. And take Rick Scott, Pam Bondi, Angela Corey, Marco Rubio, and Fredrica Wilson with them.

C’mon Timberlake. I can see Madonna siding with Trayvon on this but you? I thought you had more common sense than this. Obiously not. I gaurantee they know nothing about the details of the case. They’re just taking that stance to draw larger crowds at their concerts. They know exactly what they’re doing.

Artists joining Mr. Wonder reportedly include Rod Stewart, Madonna, Usher, Justin Timberlake, R. Kelly, Rihanna and Alicia Keys. Rappers Jay-Z, Kanye West, Trey Songz, Young Jeezy and Wale also signed on to the boycott,

I am definitely going to buy lottery tickets. State of Florida just got to be the luckiest state in the union with trash like this not coming here.

Still waiting for the downside to this.

Are we seeing the beginning of self-seccession from Libs?

This could be a good thing. A VERY good thing.

Do any of those retards know that Florida isn’t the only State with “stand your ground”? Even Illinois, with then State Senator Obama’s help.

Will they also boycott Illinois because State Senator Obonbon voted for a stand your ground law there?

A bunch of acts I’d never pay to see (and in some cases wouldn’t see for free either) are boycotting states with SYG laws. Oh, how will I ever survive?

That’s right. Boycott Florida. The only people you are hurting are the fans who would want to see you peform. Brilliant.

Stewart was a total embarrassment on The Voice. The judges could hardly contain their amusement.

With all the Florida venues opening up their schedules, this is a prefect chance for a second or third tier act to get some decent publicity in a nice house.

EDM is now passing Hip Hop as a genre, so I’d expect Deadmau5, Skrillex, Shpongle and similar acts to move in. Plus the jam bands. If the progressives somehow think Florida will be punished with a lack of music, they don’t understand show biz or the public.

Music diversity wins!

Quit touring in the 4th. most populous state in the world’s wealthiest country in an era where you get maybe a buck for your song download, presuming it’s not just pirated?

Yeah....THAT’LL last!!

Not only are many of these faded ‘stars’ irrelevant to today’s pop music fans but they are being used - willingly - to attack the perfectly sensible Stand Your Ground laws that many states have responsibly enacted. I would ask these over-the-hill and second tier ‘stars’ about their ‘security’ teams (usually armed) and why they think they deserve ‘special’ security their audiences shouldn’t have. Meanwhile, these leftist idiots with more money than brains can go pound sand with their ‘boycott’. Millions will not notice or care.

Thank you for telling me!

Heck, if more liberal slime decide to boycott the state, I might just do the same !
