 Florida Finally Gets Over Morrison’s JimmyPosted on Dec 9, 2010
Florida Gov. Charlie Crist has pardoned the late Doors frontman Jim Morrison on a conviction of showing his penis to a Miami concert audience in 1969. Morrison’s bandmates have long claimed that the singer may have been belligerent, drunk and obnoxious that night but kept his instrument in his pants. —PZS

I’m pretty sure Jim wouldn’t care if he were pardoned or not. Probably would
Report thisprefer to not be pardoned by the ‘MAN’.
He was a bit obnoxious but he was also somewhat talented. His father was quite
high up in the Navy, I seem to remember. Don’t think he was too happy with his
son.

Ah Florida:
Land of cockroaches, bad drinking water, endless strip-malls and Hooters, used-car dealerships and haven of credit criminals and those avoiding their child support. It’s a red-neck dump…...so, this “decision” is hardly a surprise.

Too bad stealing a preidential election is not as big a deal as public drunkenness seems to be in Florida.

What is this…a joke? The Governor has done this in the last month of office, why did he not do this on the first day in office? All a publicity stunt. Jim doesn’t need your pardon…history has already absolved him.
