An anecdote. I was chatting with some old friends from Rockland County NY who are Black and also have Native ancestry (Ramapo Tribe, Lenape, Munsee). We have some political disagreements but we still get along. The only thing they take issue with was the courthouse in the vid where a lynching occured 100yrs ago (Miley Cyrus did a Hannah Montana vid in front of that same courthouse. I suppose twerking is now racist?). Otherwise they understand exactly where Mr. Aldean is coming from. As one of them said Try that in Hillburn. Or Mahwah. Or Ringwood, wherever these folks live
I watched dozens of black reactions videos yesterday and almost all were positive about the songs message. I’m not shocked. People everywhere share concerns for family, neighborhoods, safety and can recognize stupid “woke” liberals for what they are.

White liberals are (and have been) our biggest problem. The reason is they are the root cause of so many ills by their voting patterns.
Take the disproportionate young BM crime stats. Yet it was white liberals, under LBJ, who ruined the black family structure with his Great Society.
Look at our disastrous border policy. Who created it? Well mostly white leftist politicians like Edward Kennedy. A far leftist politician he kept getting re-elected in a state with about 85% whites in the 90s (down to 70 now and dropping fast).
A lot of “black people” live in small towns too! They won’t tolerate all that “city ****” in their small towns either.
I can honestly say at this point I could not care less about any black reactions.
Personally I reject the video because of it. It's deceptive and misleading. I mean what is the actual ratio of theses situations between white assailants band black!!?

Black don’t like being crime victims either. What a revelation!
Thanks for that post.

I believe the country music industry started this fake outrage in order to get more black folks listening to country music.

... And it appears to be working.
What struck me recently is this: how many people would even know about that that lynching 100 years ago if the liberals didn’t shove that down our throat? So they are publicizing and repeating this past tragedy ad infinitum, emphasizing racism probably perpetrated by southern Democrats, when it might have been a lot less divisive and a lot more honest to see that building as just a classical background to the music video.
