Country Music Televison (CMT) took this song off its channel.
Meanwhile, for thirty plus years, thousands of rap songs glorifying murder, mayhem , drugs, armed robbery and hoes have been allowed to saturate the culture.

“Country music legend Jason Aldean showed that he is utterly unafraid of the woke mob by releasing his new hit song “Try That In A Small Town.” In it, Aldean shared his disdain for the left’s proclivity for riots and violence when things don’t go their way.
The theme of the song is laid out clearly in the opening verse, in which Aldean details some of the nastiest things that have happened during riots in American cities in the recent past. “Sucker punch somebody on a sidewalk/ Carjack an old lady at a red light/ Pull a gun on the owner of a liquor store/ Ya think it’s cool, well, act a fool if ya like/ Cuss out a cop, spit in his face/ Stomp on the flag and light it up/ Yeah, ya think you’re tough”.
In the music video, Aldean shares footage from 2020 showing destructive and deadly riots. Aldean then points out that his kind of vagrancy is not taking place in America’s small towns in nearly the way that it does in large cities. Hence the name, “Try That In A Small Town.”
In the chorus, Aldean dares the rioters to try that same behavior in one of the many small towns like where he was raised. “Well, try that in a small town/ 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’t/ Try that in a small town.”

I posted “Try That in a Small Town” here a few days ago.
It reminded me of a story that my cousin told me happened in her small town of Coeur d’Alene, ID.
When the riots and burning was happening in big cities across the nation a bunch of Antifa/BLM tried to march into Cd’A, they were met by practically the whole town out on the highway telling them to turn around and march right back out of there, they were NOT wanted there, NOT welcome.
It worked, they left.
Jason is right, NOT happening in a small town.
Waters covered that last night. Called a racist song.
