Over the last week, we saw stupidity hit a new low. The video by Jason Aldean is called Try That In A Small Town. As someone who grew up in a small town, I can attest they are tight-knit and can be hard to get into if you didn’t grow up there. Once you are welcomed there, you are part of the community. Until your last day on earth. That is something I have missed about small-town life. Here is where we are going to look. I AM NOT A COUNTRY FAN…. The lyrics themselves are top-notch. The video itself is well thought out. There are clips that we’ve all seen over the last three years alone. Throughout the song, not once did he mention a race. NOT EVER!
We are going to look at the song and listen to pieces of it. Because of copyrights and I do have respect for other artists who put time and energy into creating content. The song starts out with Jason referring to some of the violence happening to people just out of the blue. The rise of violence in large cities in America is out of control. Even Jason Angry Prepper based in NYC has admitted that. Adam Marfoogle in Seattle has stated how violate and chaotic Seattle has gotten. This WON’T happen in a small town. I don’t care what part of the country you’re in. He also refers to the level of disrespect shown to cops in large cities. NO!
The bridge: He makes it clear this chaos won’t fly in a small town. I can tell you if you walk up and punch someone’s granny at the store there will be a coming to Jesus moment for you. As Jason said, I don’t recommend you try their patience.
The second verse talks about a gun being handed down to him by a grandfather. This is common and it’s called inheritance. Some people pass money down generations, some people pass recipes, and some pass firearms. We’re seeing a push to round up guns because a few people are stupid and irresponsible. That’s not going to happen in a small town.
