That again, is reaching for an answer.

Who watched that video for the first time and immediately said, oh my gosh, that is a courthouse where a person was lynched 100 years ago. Likely no one  

Who would recognize it? Probably a better question would be, who did the research to find something in the video to be offended by? Why would anyone try to google something in the background in a song? Was this courthouse some well known symbol of racism? If so, why was Hannah Montana mostly filmed not only in that city, Columbia, TN, but at least one scene shot at the very same courthouse? Maybe Mikey Cyrus was pushing a hidden agenda on racism in front of that apparently well known symbol of hate…. that no one would recognize unless they were told to do so.

If a person are looking for that nail, he will find it.

Not that I would expect most people to view this 34 minute clip from Candace Owens. If a person is so inclined, scroll to the 8 minute mark and see Hannah Montana coming out of the same courthouse. Then go to around the 15 minute mark and look at some of the lyrics of current top 40 music. 
 

 

You can't dictate when someone should feel offended, and  I can't dictate what should offend you.

That doesn’t have anything to do with any other genre. It is a comparison of lyrics. It’s also called an analogy.  For example…  A guy sings a country song and at some point the lyrics

Always remember…….the left boycotted a song and made it a #1 hit. The right boycotted a beer and inflicted a $30 billion hit on the company.

I'm not surprise a lot of redneck, trailer trash like that song. Lot of folks in these small towns would love to do what they did back in the day if they could get away with it.

As opposed to wholesome gangsta' rap lyrics extolling the virtues of raping, killing, drugging, pimping and thuggin', correct, wbfan?

When a bottle of syrup offends you, you have a big problem.  Are you offended by lyrics of some of the thug rappers music, when they talk about killing cops?  Or, do you give them a pass because of the color of their skin?

The song doesnt bother me at all. He said it is not about race, so I believe him. If it is about race then it only shows that he is an idiot. I don't like violent rap music, but here is why some people find the country song offensive.

I gotta say, it was a terrible choice of a back drop for the video.

Do you know the story regarding the name of that syrup? The person on the bottle is based  on a minstrel show. I am not talking about Nancy, either. I don't like trap music

Good thing I never mentioned dictating feelings.

All I said was that there is almost no way that someone saw that video and went, OMG! A guy was lyched there 100 years ago.

 That would mean that someone was actively looking at different aspects of the video and doing a Google searches to try to find a reason to be offended.

What do this have to do with bet .. or hip hop this is a county artist banned by CMT. Rap lyrics have nothing to do with either. I doubt CMT will play most rap songs.

Who said it had anything to do with hip-hop?

Did you read previous posts. Snoop dogg this rap lyrics this as if it has any bearing on CMT decision.

It’s called selective outrage, you know Hypocrisy.

I believe I’ve already posted it but CMT is owned by Paramount which is just another left leaning Woke Corporation, no surprise by their actions.

It is a comparison of lyrics. It’s also called an analogy. 

For example… 

A guy sings a country song and at some point the lyrics say, “don’t mess with me or I’ll hurt you”.

Someone who listens to rap is outraged at such violent lyrics. At the same time we find out that his favorite rap song has a verse that says, “don’t mess with me or I’ll hurt you”. 

That is selective outrage.

Every person absolutely has the ability and right to be selectively outraged.

We are just calling it for what it is.

It’s no evidence that anyone Who listen to rap has issue with the song. Hip hop artists don’t fall under paramount.  paramount can do what it wants with it business hip hop aint its business. Who are theses people that are outraged? It’s no evidence that if paramount owned bet or anything in hip hop they wouldn’t or would do the same.

It’s useless to keep trying to explain something to him!  Just like any good Dem/Lib, he doesn’t get it or doesn’t want to.

      Or a less lethal option would be to have law enforcement yell improper pronouns at them...they'd scatter like sheep. I still prefer your way, lol.

      I ve seen this done in several other countries.  And in those countries it happens very lil because of the severity of the consequences.   I saw a video of other world leaders ask “why does America allow such destructiveness” when all the civil unrest was happening because a criminal/criminals were killed  by not following commands.     we have a great system in place but it’s been compromised and we could still learn from other countries.

      You start opening fire and drop about 10 or 12 of these protesting morons it will break up pretty quick.    This ties in with killing the chicken killing dog.

      This is an easy one. We have let grifter unqualified coaches infiltrate our children and convince them that they will be D1 athletes if they only focus on a single sport. We've got kids, with single digit ages, playing their sport year-round to "maximize exposure" despite the fact that most college coaches on the recruiting trail will value a multisport athlete. This translates to the school year and ends up with kids being football, basketball, baseball only kids. Track is pretty much the only one left that keeps kids playing other sports and that's primarily because football coaches demand their football kids be track athletes. I literally talked to a man last night, who just moved to Texas from Oklahoma who was telling me his kid played on two different football teams during the season last year. One for his school, one for his select league. During the week the kid was a RB for his school, and on the weekends, he was a QB for his select team. This would equal 7 days a week of full contact football for a 6th grader......6th grader. Once that ends, rolls straight into 7 on 7 for the spring and back to football in the summer. All this for a kid, who seems to be a good athlete, but probably has a ceiling of D2 at best, if he doesn't burn out before that. Parents are silly and think they can develop their kids into being the next Quinn Ewers, but they completely miss the biggest factor in creating that type of athlete.....genetics. Genetics are undefeated. Always have been, always will be. Play sports because you love to compete then compete in everything you do. Quit giving bullsheet rings to "state champions" every single weekend all over the US and get back to valuing team championships won at the community level to build the continuity when they are young. This is the only way to reestablish the pride once felt by every kid in every town across Texas when they got to put on a uniform with their school colors. Otherwise, we can kiss the magic of high school sports goodbye.
