Country fans were outraged and on April 16, Currington announced he was pulling out of the concert.

According to the International Business Times (IBI), the gun control concert got the wrong kind of exposure when Breitbart News reported that concert beneficiary Sandy Hook Promise “is a vehicle through which various relatives of Sandy Hook victims have joined to push gun control until it passes.”

Did you see where McGraw’s daughter had to take down her facebook pages showing her holding guns? McGraw in an ass. I don’t like country music so I can’t pull any support.

Your memory is serving well.

Roy was a firm believer in our 2nd Amendment Rights, and in fact appeared in TV commercials as an NRA spokesman, opposing a proposed gun ban in California.

By the way did they disband, haven’t anything about them in years.

Except for him and his family. I had a professor at my work place make the statement to my face they just need to ban all guns and stop people from owning them, except for me I might need mine, I’m responsible with mine. I just rolled my eyes and walked off, not worth the effort.

Sort of reminds me of “Tattoos & Scars” by Montgomery Gentry.

Wonder how many fans of McGraw, hunt and own guns for hunting and for self defense?

If they have any brains and common sense, they should boycott McGraw until he fades into oblivion.

Thanks for posting this excellent suggestion. Ask the Dixie Chicks how they did economically after their left wing BS.

Time to ‘Dixie chick’ Tim McGraw

“McGraw also supports obama and hillary!”

That makes 3 strikes for him when you add his left wing gun control fascism to his political left wingery.

“Anything out of Nashtown is queer.”

My oldest friend was an audio engineer in Nashville. He’s now retired. He worked at TNN from before it went on the air to when it closed, then he went independent. He tells me that shortly after TNN’s demise, all control shifted to New York City. All his work orders for years, came from NYC. That should tell you something!
