Ted Nugent provided a predictably unhinged response to Stevie Wonder's decision to not perform in Florida after the George Zimmerman verdict, telling WXBR that he found the decision "brain-dead."
"You've got to be kidding me," he said. "So 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. Are you kidding me? What is this, 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'? How brain-dead do you have to be? How strangled by denial, how dishonest, how cheap do you have to be to focus on a clear-cut case where all the evidence, from the DOJ, from the FBI, from the army of investigative specialists in Florida determined that George Zimmerman acted in self-defense against a life-threatening attack by hoodlum, dope-smoking Trayvon Martin?"
Nugent also said that he would pray for "Stevie Wonder and all these other numnuts who think that Trayvon Martin's life is more important than the tens of thousands of slaughtered blacks at the hands of blacks."

(6,635 posts)thing from the Zimmerman supporters and apologists on DU. NRA gun huggers of a feather, flock together I guess.
Regardless of what Florida system of injustice allowed Zimmerman to get away with, he is guilty of stalking, deliberate provocation, and murder. What happens in Chicago, or any place else for that matter, does not alter these obvious facts.

(6,635 posts)and they're still defending Zimmerman and SYG on other threads today. Their low post-count sock puppets (or resurrected zombies) are using the standard "statistical analysis" approach to prove their right-wing NRA talking points, and their fellow right-wing Gungeoneers are playing supporting roles.
Gun huggers are so predictable...

It's just another lameass RWingnut TP as far as he's concerned.
