Leftists ‌Enraged After Country Star Jason Aldean Torches ⁣Blue Cities in New Music Video: ‘Try That in a ⁤Small Town’

Liberals have ⁤been apoplectic over ‌country star Jason Aldean’s song in which he blasts ⁣the left’s ‍urban lawlessness and ⁣celebrates small‌ towns where dangerous ⁤behavior is not ‍tolerated.

The lyrics of‌ the tune, titled⁣ “Try That in a Small Town,” begin with a ⁢panoply of attacks on ⁣civility and ⁤law and order that some on ⁣the left ⁢think‌ are ⁤“cool,” including sucker-punching people‌ on the ⁤sidewalk, carjacking ‍old ladies, robbing liquor‌ stores, spitting on cops ⁣and burning the U.S. flag.

“Well, try that in a small⁣ town,” Aldean sings ‌in the chorus, adding:

See ⁢how far ‌ya make it down ‍the road.
’Round ⁢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’tTry ‍that in a small town.

Aldean’s ‌song ‌goes on⁤ to⁣ note that folks⁢ in⁤ small towns are⁢ for law‌ and order, they are armed and they⁢ are ⁣“good ‍ol’ boys, raised up‍ right.”

The country star, who is a vocal conservative, warns leftists, “If you’re looking for a fight, try that‍ in‌ a⁣ small town.”

Conservatives ⁢praised it as ⁤a⁢ refreshing takedown of⁤ the left’s soft-on-crime ⁣attitude.

Jason ⁢Aldean just released an absolutely epic music video for ‍the ⁤song‌ “Try That In a Small Town” that⁤ rips into ‌the left-wing⁣ riots, soft ⁤on crime ‍governance in‌ cities, gun control, and other leftist‍ degradation. pic.twitter.com/dUYzGbnvc6

Leftists, however, were furious over the video.

Woke Twitter user Jim Stewartson’s ⁢Monday‌ tweet was typical of⁣ the extremist, ⁣hyperbolic, left-wing ⁤lines of attack, calling the video “racist” and ‌“white nationalist” and howling that it⁤ glorifies guns.

This is one of the‍ most dangerous, irresponsible videos from a mainstream artist ⁢I ⁤have ever‍ seen. @Jason_Aldean is openly radicalizing‌ his fans‌ into ‍white nationalist vigilante⁢ violence.@BMG @BMG_US‍ Everyone ⁣associated with‍ greenlighting this should be ashamed. Your ⁤artist ‍is… https://t.co/FgYT2DwVZV pic.twitter.com/YqkV1oBrpp

— Jim Stewartson, Anti-disinfo⁤ activist ⁢(@jimstewartson) July 17,⁣ 2023

In Stewartson’s estimation, ⁤it is‌ “dangerous” because it is “encouraging” ‍white people to “exact ⁢summary justice” on black people ‌and others.

“This is one of the most ⁤dangerous,‍ irresponsible videos from ⁤a‍ mainstream artist I‌ have ⁤ever ⁤seen.‌ @Jason_Aldean is ‌openly radicalizing ⁤his fans⁤ into white nationalist vigilante violence,” ⁣Stewartson bleated in his tweet.

“Everyone associated ⁤with ‍greenlighting this ⁣should ‍be ashamed,” he⁢ continued, directing ‌his comment to‌ label BMG. “Your artist ⁢is intentionally dividing Americans against each other ‌and⁣ ENCOURAGING‍ the viewer to exact‌ summary justice on people who ⁣‘try that in a small ‌town’ who happen to‍ be ‍Black⁣ or a‌ caricature of the⁢ ‘left.’

“Aldean⁤ goes on to invoke images ‍of weapons of war in conjunction with his incitement. Music should be inspirational,‌ but ⁣should not be ⁣used⁢ to inspire ⁢aggrieved⁢ white men to usher⁢ in a second ⁤civil war. You should take this⁤ down — everywhere.”

Of course, neither the song ⁣nor⁣ the⁤ video features ⁢any “racist” or “white nationalist”⁢ rhetoric or ⁢images. In⁢ fact, the crimes included in the video are perpetrated ⁢mostly by white ‌people.

Leftist podcaster ⁣Bryan Combs ⁤agreed with ‌the claim that Aldean was ⁤“advocating ⁤for gun violence.”

“These ‌are the lyrics to the ‍(atrocious) new Jason ⁣Aldean song. Any radio station ‌that plays ⁤this should be⁣ ashamed. It’s‌ 2023 ⁢and we⁤ have‌ a ‍‘country ‍musician’ ‌out⁤ here advocating‌ for gun violence, and to make matters worse Aldean was on stage during the⁢ Vegas mass ⁤shooting,” Combs piously lectured.

Anti-gun‌ nut Shannon Watts also attacked ⁣Aldean for his pro-Second ⁤Amendment stance.

.@Jason_Aldean ⁢– who ‍was on-stage⁢ during the mass shooting at a‍ Las‌ Vegas concert in 2017 that killed 60 people ‌and wounded over 400 more – ⁣has ⁤recorded⁣ a song ⁣called “Try That In A Small ⁣Town” about how ‍he ⁤and his‌ friends will shoot you⁢ if you⁢ try to take ⁢their‌ guns.‍ pic.twitter.com/hWGdEgS33v

It is interesting‌ that these leftists⁢ have such a laser-sharp⁢ focus on “guns” because ‍Aldean mentions the word ⁢only once⁢ in the whole song. ⁢The video also does ⁣not dwell on‌ firearms, except ‌in ⁢the⁣ few ‍crime videos ⁤that show ⁢criminals using ⁤them against‌ people.

No,⁤ what irks the left the most is‌ that ⁣Jason⁢ Aldean is right.

Big blue cities are devolving into⁣ crime-ridden states⁤ of nature where it is‌ everyone ⁢for himself. If you want ⁤to compare‍ Democrat-run ⁣cities to entertainment,⁢ you’d⁣ have to choose the violent “Purge” ⁢movies as your model.

The ‌left knows this. But they ⁣don’t want ‌you⁤ to know⁤ this.

But, as ⁢Aldean says,‍ you better not “try that” ⁢in a ‍small town.
