Stevie Wonder Uses
Concert Stops to Campaign for More Gun Control
by AWR Hawkins 19 Aug 2015
Stevie Wonder just
wrapped up a series of three short concerts in Philadelphia,
New York City, and Washington
DC, all of which he used as an opportunity to talk about his desire for
more gun control in America.
All three concerts took place on August 17.
For example, the Philly
Voice reports that he gave a short concert in Dilworth Park then
told attendees that we need greater accountability for privately-owned guns in
this country. He said, “I just feel we have to find a way where everyone is
accountable for whatever gun they have.”
In New York City, PageSix
reported that Wonder performed in Central Park then talked about
“fixing the planet” and about gun violence and gun control. He reiterated the
theme of being accountable “for every gun” and suggested that audience members
needed to support more gun control even if they were members of gun rights
groups.
Wonder said: “We have gotta find a place, we as
Americans of all ethnicities, we’ve got to put an end to it . . . What we have
to do, whether you’re NRA or whatever, is find a place of everyone being
accountable for every gun we have here.”
In DC, Wonder continued with the same themes. The Washington Times reported
that he stressed the need for “love” and more gun control to end “gun
violence.”
Breitbart News previously
reported that Stevie Wonder used a November 22 concert in Atlanta to
broach the topics of guns and gun control and suggested “someone in government”
needed to do something to get gun control passed.
The Atlanta
Blackstar quoted Wonder:
You’re able to fix the problem. If we are able to send
rockets to the moon I would hope that we would have someone in the government
to hold people accountable for the guns they have. I hope someone with a spirit
who wants to see more people living than dying will do this because the only
people making money are the gun factories and the mortuaries. I don’t care if
you agree with me. I love you anyway.
