The one law that actually helps blacks instead of hurting them and blacks want it overturned because it's "racist". Makes sense.

It didn't help Trevor Dooley.

Nah, we decided boycotting Republican candidates for POTUS was more productive and better for the country.

I have trouble believing groups cancel over this.

Can you say lawsuit and damages ? They should have contracts.

Sounds like a BS story to me.

now, if you add all those ticket sales up you are talking billions!

Justin timberlake 20/20 vision tour was due to kick off in miami - he canceled and he quoted:

"i refuse to entertain a state who's government allows people to shoot-n-kill un-armed teenagers!"

Easy for them to say - they are all millionaires who live privileged lives and most likely live in very secure gated communities. So they refuse to play Florida? I thought their music was suppose to make the world a better place...so where are they going to play- perhaps a private party for a few million - at the lavish home of some murderous third world dictator? Give me a break...to not play is letting the bad guys win...apparently they are not bright enough to figure that out.
