According to Ted Nugent, Stevie Wonder is “brain-dead” for defending “hoodlum, dope-smoking, Trayvon Martin.” Nugent made the bold statement during Boston radio show PM in the AM.
Nugent has made it clear that he disagreed with the prosecution of George Zimmerman in Trayvon Martin’s death. In a WND article, Nugent stated that Zimmerman was falsely accused and that the prosecution was driven entirely by race.
Zimmerman, he contends, was an innocent man who was attempting to defend his life. Nugent continues, explaining that Trayvon Martin was “an enraged black man-child” and a “dope-smoking, dope-peddling, gangsta wannabe, Skittles hoodie boy.”
Zimmerman’s not guilty verdict pleased Nugent. However, Stevie Wonder was disappointed with the Jury’s decision.
As reported by Mediaite, Wonder announced that he will no longer perform in Florida, or any other state, where Stand Your Ground laws exist. Although the law was not a factor in the Zimmerman verdict, it was mentioned several times throughout the case.
In response to the announcement, Ted Nugent called Stevie Wonder brain-dead for defending Trayvon Martin.
As reported by Huffington Post, Nugent criticized Wonder for focusing on the Zimmerman case. He suggested that Wonder could better serve the public by focusing on other issues.
Specifically, Nugent stated “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 rarely feels the need to keep his opinions to himself, and this case is no exception. Despite his biting criticism of Wonder’s decision, Nugent has offered to keep “Stevie Wonder and all these other numnuts” in his prayers.”
The fact that Ted Nugent called Stevie Wonder brain-dead is not entirely surprising. If anything, it is just another chapter in Nugent’s continuing rant.
As I've said before, I wish this boycott gains traction. Florida is crowded enough! But alas, starting around Thanksgiving these phonies will be down here in droves getting sh!tfaced at the clubs, seeing the sights, or in the Magic Kingdom feeding the Rat.
No Stevie Wonder concerts for Ted. He’s boycotted! LOL!
okay, stevie wonder is blind for supporting trayvon.
Nugent of course is right. This is what push-back looks like folks.
Go uncle Ted.
Agree 100% with Ted. Anyone that defends TM’s actions is an idiot, probably woefully, willfully ignorant of basic laws regarding self defense; and / or they are intentionally turning a blind eye to the facts in order to push an agenda - be that gun control, racial tension, whatever.
Evidently a part of the occipital lobe of his brain IS dead.
so will Stevie Wonder continue to perform in Chicago? does he realize that more black men benefit from Florida’s Stand Your Ground law than white men do?
Idiot writer. It may have been mentioned, but not by anyone in the courtroom - just idiot reporters.
Can Stevie Wonder and the rest of those idiots who hate the Zimmerman verdict boycott California too, we here have suffered long enough
Ummm... he is turning two blind eyes...
I think Ted should have said, “Stevie is blind! He can’t see the nose in front of his face let alone the clarity of the evidence!”

Heck, I’ve been feeling like I was a lobe donor as of late...
I hate to tell Ted but Stevie was brain dead and on some primo drugs in 1969 when they had to carry him onto the stage at the FSU homecoming game and practically strap him to the piano. This is not new. :-)
He is very good. Can’t believe he worked for the L. A. Times for a while, and they actually paid him to put out those good cartoons.
Thanks for the feedback on that link.
