Stevie Wonder calls for more gun control

[Gary and Alla 3,694]

In this case I agree with Mr. Wonder, it is probably unwise for him to have and handle firearms.

Except there is no evidence that blind people are hurting anyone with firearms

Again the point of concealed carry is missed.

CONCEALED carry means you do not know who has a firearm. It is a force multiplier...a deadly shell game. If you create a class of person KNOWN to be disarmed, particularly if those people are handicapped and even more so if they are unable to identify their assailants by sight...you have simply served up dinner to the Hyenas. Maybe if you want to fade the heat off yourself, you can serve up handicapped people to be victims and be safer yourself. I dont go for it. seems like shooting your neighbor in the kneecap with a .22 so you can run to escape a bear attack as the bear eats your neighbor.

Better to leave the possibility that the blind guy MAY be armed and MAY just be able to sense your presence enough to whack you with the pistol he MIGHT be packing.

Publically announcing the disarmament of disabled people is just STUPID Stupid beyond belief because it is simply unnecessary and a "made up issue"

Now if we are having a problem I am unaware of...blind people with concealed carry permits shooting up the place...then please inform me and I will reconsider my position after further study. I just think it is a solution to a problem that does not exist and creates another, far more dangerous, situation.

I support Stevie's right to be armed...or not. And for NO ONE to know if he is...or not.

I doubt he will see it... your way/

What a pathetic attempt at humour. Shame on you.

Sorry, I'll really pay attention when he gives a free concert in Chicago,

where the audience is limited to gangbangers

and each attendee must give over 2 handguns as the price of admission.

I agree. to keep perpetuating the myth that the biggest threat to young black males is some white guy with a gun is obscene.

No it's worse than obscene . one would have to be blind and have a 40 IQ to swallow that Hoarse #######.

I think the odds of a young black male being murdered by a middle aged white guy are right up there with a lightning strike.

The odds of him dropping out of school and going to prison are over 30%

The odds of not having a father in the house 80%

I stand corrected..George Zimmerman is the single biggest issue facing young black men today

Never said that, just pointed out your statement is a bit flawed.

It's bad enough we're killed by our own, now we have to worry about armed middle aged white men who feel threatened, but go looking for a confrontation.

What a pathetic attempt at humour. Shame on you.

Stevie wonder is a grown Azz man. Quite treating him like an invalid.

And no doubt you were deeply offended when Palin's baby was ridiculed and her teen daughter called a #######.

[Danno 1,228]

I'm thinkin, what Stevie wonder thread would be complete with out honoring the mans music.

Now on one cane touch the original but this is a good rendition.

[Darnell 8,478]

how does Stevie turn the corner, you ask ?

Well, after a cane touch, he knows the space is there.

Thanks, Danno !

[Janelle2002 3,865]

Wow, people complain that black people don't try to work on issues and when the man addresses an issue that currently IS affecting the black community people complain that it was not directed enough?

Really?

Can't win with these people who are just looking for ways to bash black people.

Funny, your party passed the laws to allow the blind carry concealed weapons.

Now arming the "black" blind guy is just ridiculous?

Bravo...

First of all let's not call anything my party.

Secondly, you need to cultivate a sense of humor, it really is an attractive quality.

Then you'd need to cultivate your comedic skills a tad, because ignorant never strikes me as all that funny when there's no punch line.

But by all means, please continue with your thriving stand up career.
