Beyoncé fans are pissed at John Schneider

The actor known for his role in the 1979 TV show “Dukes of Hazzard” is being labeled a racist after comparing Beyoncé to a dog marking its territory when she put out two country-themed tracks this month.

“They’ve got to make their mark, just like a dog in a dog walk park. You know, every dog has to mark every tree, right? So that’s what’s going on here,” Schneider, 63, said while appearing on conservative media outlet One American News. The comment came after the anchor asked Schneider his thoughts on fans pressuring an Oklahoma radio station to play the “Single Ladies” songstresses new country music.

They should quit trying to make everything racist... If everything’s racist then nothing’s racist.

If that remark is racist, Joe Biden has over a two digit IQ.

The Left doesn’t need a reason to call someone a racist. It’s like breathing to them.

Much ado about nothing:

Charlie Pride - Kiss An Angel Good Morning

[nickcarraway]

Charley Pride was always a country musician. Maybe a better comparison would be Lionel Richie or The Pointer Sisters, who made their name in other genres, then dabbled in country.

Or Ronnie Milsap. His first hit was on the soul chart, and much later he was big in country.

Of course not. Beyonce, being black, is of course never wrong, and always does the right thing for the right reason. Anyone who suggests otherwise, when we all know she’s perfect, must clearly be a racist.

That’s racist????? PLEASE!!!
Oh, I forgot, EVERYTHING is racist!

[Robert DeLong]

My point was that country singers have been black as well as white. Regardless of what genre someone made their name in, it doesn't deny them the right to present a country music song. It will be judged upon how it is received, period.

Country music has already changed by the white artists who have basically made it into another form of rock, country rock.

Music genres goes where its fans allow it to go.

Who cares if Beyonce sings county music. Modern day country music is just Pop music with 10-Gallon hats, button down collared shirts, high hair/bouffant for females, and Roy Rogers type Native American frills. Nothing burger. If anything Beyonce can bring some new nuances to the genre.

Beyoncé’s red carpet outfit is a nod to her new country album.

In his book The Plus by Greg Gutfeld he said: “If I have to see Beyonce’s rear end and thighs in fishnet tights ever again it will be one time too many.”

I’m kind of curious how she does country. Does she sing “Salty Dog”?

[WKUHilltopper]

The term racist...a weak hand that means nothing anymore.

[Dr. Sivana]

He said they, not she. And he included a white singer in the “they” group.

Yup, he could have said the same thing about Paul McCartney when he hit the country charts with "Sally G" (flip side of "Junior's Farm".
