The song is about vigilantism. That's not really debatable
In response to unpunished terrorism, yes.

Well that’s to be expected. He’s a leftist and emotion is what drives them.

Yes. Why do you allow a song to hurt your feelings?
I don't allow a song to hurt my feelings. I don't care about this song at all.

I'm just here to educate y'all who need educating.

It's a teachable moment.

uproar over Jason Aldean's song
funny because still up until I'm typing this, the only time I've ever heard is this song is on the OT


Not sure I had ever heard of Jason Aldean other besides the OT either to be fair

The song is not about vigilantism in response to unpunished terrorism.

It's not about vigilantism in response to terrorism at all.

So, it's just going to be ad hominem after ad hominem?

No facts? No logic? No rational analysis?

Just party-line garbage?

Disappointing.

Pretty sure the media and gov jumps in on those quickly for the world to know. Quiet on what’s portrayed in this video.

Why would the US Gov need to speak out about protests and riots shown in this video that happened in Germany, Spain and Ukraine

This is where you go off the rails. You see, in your mind, you probably honestly believe you’re the educated one and all of us are just dumb rubes. But in reality, you’re actually not educated. What you are is indoctrinated. You’ve fallen for leftist indoctrination and mistakenly think you’re educated. The result is you’re in this thread thinking you’re right and everyone else is wrong. And the only thing you’re achieving is to make a complete arse of yourself.

Soooo, if the folks who made the video used the courthouse as a background because of its history with lynchings, that explains why there is an uproar.



Again, how do you know this? What evidence do you have? Or are you just the same type of partisan hack you're railing against in here, just on the other side of the isle?

It's odd how your criticism of this type of thing seems to go only one direction.

Which is exactly what you've done.

If anything the video speaks out against the violence shown in the video.

I had no idea the courthouse in the video was considered “famous for lynching” and I guarantee 99% of the people in this country would not recognize that courthouse as being “famous for lynching”. So if it was chosen for that particular reason it was pretty much a wasted idea. That is until “outraged” people brought it to everyone’s attention.

It is far more likely the courthouse in the video was there to simply represent “law and order”. But it is par for the course for the most vocal people in this country to dig deep to find something to be the most outraged about.

This is the real problem leftists have with the video and the song. Leftists have shown they are eager to use violence to further their Marxist agenda. Anyone who opposes this violence is viewed as an enemy and thus violence against them is justified.

Explaining your lack of logic and emotional tripe.

You see stupid shite where it doesn't exist, because you choose to see it.

The lyrics in this song are not opinion.


Sure they are. Ferguson is less than 7 sq miles and has less than 20k residents and it happened there.

I get what he's trying to say and I don't necessary disagree his opinion and your opinion on it doesnt mean it's a fact...and that's okay.

It's okay to just have an opinion and it's okay if people disagree with it.

Do you see the word "if" in my quote? I underlined and bolded it for you. And, my quote is taken out of context, which seems to be a theme in this thread. Why use a courthouse at all if the song is about vigilantism? Why use that courthouse?

And then again, you are completely missing the context of the vigilantism and the images in the video.

Oh, and it's "aisle," not "isle."
