Stomp on the flag and light it up
Yeah, ya think you're tough.
Well, try that in a small town.
See how far ya make it down the road.
Around here, we take care of our own.
You cross that line, it won't take long.
For you to find out, I recommend you don't. Try that in a small town.
Got a gun that my granddad gave me
Last week Country Music Television, which initially aired the video, pulled it from rotation. But after Aldean defended the music video by stating that "there isn’t a single video clip that isn’t real news footage," Stark said it was easy to prove him wrong
In a TikTok video that's gotten at least 1.5 million views, Stark found that two of the clips in the video came from stock footage. One showed a woman flipping off police at at labor day event in Germany and another was a commercial stock clip of a molotov cocktail.
Lying about it and then getting caught.
Stark shared screenshots with NBC News of hateful messages she's received since posting her videos about Aldean's song, which included racist slurs, fatphobic remarks and death threats.
Newsflash: unironically listening to modern country like Jason Aldean or any other arena country act, makes you an idiot. It's a bad song, with bad lyrics, with bad music, sung by a millionaire larping as working class. Everything about Country is a lie.
Someone with better video editing skills than myself (none whatsoever) should remake this video but exclusively use footage from the January 6th insurrection.
I lived in conservative california and that sounds about right. Only thing that kept us alive was that my spouse happens to be a vet and we're asian so we get a pass. We lived there for a while until my spouse got a job after covid. They literally think that it's a warzone out there. So much bullshit spread about the city. Of course the news just fans the flames.
This lady I knew never went to the fashion district in LA because she pretty much believed that her blond and blue eyed kids would be snatched off the streets by minorities. The ironic thing is that we lived off the I-15 which is a huge human trafficking corridor so the kidnapping would have more likely happened closer to where they live. Also phelan is full of meth heads but you know, that doesn't matter.
The song is about sundown towns and that makes it racist AF.
