    As a black woman who grew up in Appalachia Edson, TN in the 80s. I approve of this message. He speaks the complete truth to this day. Never met a neighbor or small town member not willing to help another out and have a heart of gold. But also dont ever forget the America we grew up on and what it stands for. Do the crume paybthe price, threaten another mans home or family, pay the price. Thats what America is about. Love my country/bluegrass roots and whatever soft person whos feelings are hurt, and I quote the beautiful Mrs. Candice Owens "Life's tough get a helmet".

    Charlie Daniels ranks right up there with Willie Nelson, Kris kristofferson, Waylon Jennings, and Johnny Cash, as one of the greatest country artists ever.
    Edit:
    His best quote, I thought:
    "The news is not about the news anymore. It's about protecting some people, destroying others and shoving the Socialist agenda down the collective throat of America."
    RIP Charlie Danials, October 28, 1936 - July 6, 2020.

    I'm an Englishman now living in the lovely countryside of Ireland after living all my life in London.
    In my fifty years on this earth I watched that place go from bad to worse: The crime, the over crowding, the indifference, the intolerance and just the downright nastiness of humanity.
    Sitting here today, gazing across the valley, I can see for miles as I play this video and it feels as relevant to the life I left behind in London as it does as to what's happening in America this year.
    Some people need to learn some respect, both self respect and mutual respect. They need to take some personal responsibilities, grow the hell up and get a job to buy what they want, not expect it handed to them on a plate or go out rioting and looting to get it. I was sorry to hear of CD's passing earlier this year, the world sure could use a few like him about now.
