The Family of Jim Morrison and surviving members of the Doors have issued a statement in response to Florida‘s pardon of Morrison for allegedly exposing himself at a Miami concert in 1969. They say that Jim didn’t need to pardoned for anything!!Morrison’s performance that night, while “certainly provocative,” “the charges against him were largely an opportunity for grandstanding by ambitious politicians.” They say the state of Florida and city of Miami should issue an apology, expunge the incident from the record and “promise to stop letting culture-war hysteria trump our First Amendment rights.”
