It's not as if SW is withholding some vital resource, he's just saying he won't play in FL until they revisit the SYG laws. Perfect non-violent protest in my opinion. History is replete with examples of successful boycotts that got people's attention, and money (or lack thereof) tends to get a lot of attention these days.
