Pinks. Mike Huckabee was kicked off a country music board because a top Nashville record exec. said Huckabee didn’t support he and his “husband’s” marriage.

Devil is in the details. Nobody knows what to do, or what specific legislation can pass Congress, etc.

they could do all the background check and red flag laws and limit ammunition sales and other things, and you would still have demented individuals who would carry out attacks.

People sometimes point to Britain as having such a small number of gun crimes, but they have acid attacks and knife crime which kills people.

So, RINOPuff, I’m sure that you knew Kacey Musgraves is a deranged piece of garbage, right? She hates the President, is a proud “progressive socialist” and routinely writes songs that are anti-religion, pro-sodomite and that promote various SJW causes. She’s not mainstream by any stretch of the term.

Maren Morris is another liberal who went on a gun grabbing kick after Vegas.

To present these two as country music stars is more than disingenuous.

I trust my fellow Americans with guns far more than I trust the government with police powers.

yes car crashes don’t register. Because they normally kill 1 or 2 or 3 at a time.

“Nearly 1.25 million people die in road crashes each year, on average 3,287 deaths a day.” -— Seems a wee high.

Lyrics must include:

Red dirt roads
A can of beer (or a bottle of moonshine)
The bed of a truck
A girl with cutoff shorts
Any other pandering we can think of

The Left runs on feels, not thinks ... it makes them the perfect fit for the infantile among us.

>>Ban music...

The Dayton shooter was in a misogynist grindcore band. He’d voiced his thoughts. This was after he’d been busted with a rape list and a hit list.

>>In the time since Petty died, country is even worse. Modern pop with faux hick lyrics.

Number one country song, you are absolutely right
