It's also a song about violently suppressing legal free speech that you don't agree with. Cussing out a cop and burning the flag are legal protected activities and no one should have their speech suppressed with threats of violence. I don't agree with burning the flag, I'll stand up and protect a person's right to do so. Free Speech includes legal speech and activities I don't agree with.
@@TexasRose50 yup, which is why I've only ever objected to the "Cussing out a Cop" and the Flag lyrics as trying to suppress free speech with threats of violence.
I was born, raised, and still live in a small town in Alabama. Jason is speaking to ANYONE, regardless of skin color, who might think they can bring violence, destruction, chaos, and disrespect to our communities. My small town is integrated, as most are around here, and we WILL stand hand in hand, - white, black, yellow, and red, - and we WILL take care of our own. And we will NEVER relinquish our second amendment rights. Those people calling this racist sure have some mighty racists beliefs of their own.
@Michelle_Cm & @EllinJimmerson I am in Cullman. I have watched this town, and this state, pull together many times when there was a need. This song is about community and helping each other.
It’s a problem for those that don’t want Americans to stand together. It’s time for Americans to show everyone that we will NOT be played. “I recommend you don’t!” ❤🇺🇸
I’m a small town, country woman…around here we seldom lock our doors at night, worry about getting robbed or attacked for any reason. We know our neighbors and their families, what dog or cat or cow or horse belongs to whom, and we all watch out for each other while still minding our own business. I feel this song embodies that feeling. Crime is dealt with swiftly, and people who cause too much problem usually are well known and avoided. I’m not saying we are insular or prejudiced, just that we look after each other. I see nothing biased in this song at all. I appreciate your reaction that racism has no place in this world. It’s a good feeling when you know your neighbors have your back. Love from the wilds of western Pennsylvania!
In 2017 Jason held a concert for the Harvest Musical Festival in Vegas. While he was preforming, a lone gunman shot over 1000 rounds into the crowd of Jason's concert. He killed 60 people and injured over 400. Due to the panic there were another 800+ people injured. The incident is the deadliest mass shooting by a single gunman in American history. Jason takes these violent protests and riots very seriously. This is not a song about race or an attempt to keep us divided. This is a song reminding all of us that we are brothers and sisters, friends, neighbors, coworkers, business owners, etc. and we should always have each other backs. We are all connected in some way and we should take care of our own. I love this song.
He cares so much about anti gun violence that he proudly supports the NRA & all things MAGA! You would think being involved in a mass shooting he’d be trying to help with gun control instead of making music videos and songs in support of of it!
@@Nctracklifewhy. It's a right to keep and bear arms, not your opinion. But to be clear he did take an antigun point of view after that. So tell us you know nothing about him and just run off at the mouth before you check it out... 😂
@@Nctracklifewhy would anyone opposed to gun violence want gun control. There are between 500,000 and 3 million instances of defensive gun use every year in the US. Do you literally want more people to die?
Yeah, have you seen those that call out dog Whistle racist comments? Kinda telling on themselves. Only dogs can hear Whistle so, stands to reason that only racists hear those dog whistles!😂😂😂😂
I am in a small town in Texas and my neighbors are black, white, Puerto Rican, Hispanic, Asian and Middle Eastern. We all have one another's phone numbers and know one another's names. We all speak often and are always ready to lend a hand with home or yard improvements or car or truck repairs. I dare say that if anyone brought trouble to our little corner of the world we would take care of one another... without thought of race, religion. gender, age or beliefs. That is how it should be. Turn off the lame stream media and go talk to your neighbor... love one another! God bless you and keep up the great work! =)
Simply put, Jason is merely saying, "don't bring your violence to a small town; we won't sit by and allow the violence to prevail and destroy our town." He is just saying that they will fight back to protect each other. Nothing wrong with that.
I agree….I am from Texas and I see nothing except advocating for being a good citizen….there is no need for the violence. There is nothing racial about this song in my opinion. Thank you for checking this song out.
If that was the case then he should have used clips from the Jan 6th riot at the capital by the MAGA terrorists instead of stock photos from events that happened in other countries! He isn’t from a small town, he’s a well known MAGA supporter and this isnt the first time he’s shown his hate & bigotry.
This song has struck a chord in everyday patriotic Americans . Small town America is the last bastion of hope to our citizens. Small town still believe that humans are the best commodity and helping those in need is what we are suppose to do. Your reaction is correct.
Aussie here, and thank God that someone has taken the lead in trying to save what was once a Great Country, sadly going under due to the corruption of government and the 'woke' brigade who think they have the right to tell us what to think and say. Jason Aldean is speaking the honest truth and more people should stand up and be heard.
You are a bit behind the times mate, defendant Trump's corrupt government was kicked out ages ago and now he has been indicted several times and will soon be found guilty and sent to prison for his numerous crimes. Oh and you clearly have no idea what woke means either, or perhaps you do and are just comfortable being racist etc. As for "telling us what to think and say" you do know that the political-right in America has been banning books, as well as the right to terminate a pregnancy, even if it involves rape, incest or paedophilia?.....They have also brought in several measures to make it as hard as possible for the average American to vote, as well as trying to overturn a fairly elected government, too. And do you reckon the politically right-wing Jason Aldean will ever condemn defendant Trump over his numerous crimes and his fellow insurrectionists over Jan 6, or does he only speak the "honest truth" as and when it suits him to do so?
Love to our U.K. and Aussie brothers and sisters! Your damn right. I get mad alot...but also I beleive in Jesus( even though imma damn good sinner) , and what he says about love. We need more of that. There are people that try to separate us because of race and they stand back and get money and power for it. I got news for them, we are ONE race....Human!!
Love this reaction! I'm from a little southern town, we all take care of each other regardless of skin color or religious beliefs, we are neighbors...period. Values and common sense are under attack and that is why 'they' don't like this song that promotes values and common sense.
Yep, no racism here. Love this song and I'm not even a Jason Aldean music fan. He speaks the truth. Small towns, rural communities take care of their own. Pretty much all of the black TH-cam music reaction channels I watch love this song and understand the meaning perfectly. Thanks for the reaction.
I live in a small town in GA and we do take care of our own and our City. that's everyone, no matter the color of your skin, we take care of our own (everybody). Glad you liked the song.
I live in Northwest Alabama and I love this song. The only message he is conveying is to have each other's backs all over like we do in small towns. I wish the leftests would close their mouths and open their ears. If I see injustice and I can do anything about it, i will jump right in and I couldn't care less about skin color or religious beliefs or political beliefs. I just want to see everyone caring about each other. Thank you for your reaction, it is spot on!
Totally agree. People are trying to write a narrative that simply doesn’t exist in this song! Not even an ounce of racism here… Jason is simply saying when you play stupid games you’ll win stupid prizes… Follow the law and RESPECT others!
Facts by Aldean here.. we don't play lawlessness in the country like the cities do. Nothing racist here, only pro decent people. " The truth "is another good one by Jason, his first hit. Great take and reaction here.
It's songwriting. Is it a good song? Yes, and it is because it provokes thought on the subject. My problem with it is it's aggressive and divisive, though it is uniting those in the small towns. It's more powerful to craft a message that can unite the small town and the big city
@@daniellaplume3840 tell the left to unify.. we're not gonna allow that progressive swill here.If you can't unite behind good ole American values, then I'm not sure what would wake y'all up. I stand with Jason all day everyday.
@@jasonbradham1172it's only people with drug addiction or with mental illness that take part in crimes of opportunity, not progressives who are self respecting. I think the song is taking an ignorant stance, but at the same time I appreciate it for being a good song that resonates and provokes thought and conversation like all good art However, you have proved my point about it widening the dividing line in your admitting that you don't choose to want to bring bring good people in towns and in cities together. But that's your problem
I'm from Iowa...grew up near a small town of 5000 people and many other small towns like it nearby. When those riots were going on and being shown all over.....all of us were saying...."They're all insane. Just try that here!" ....small town folks definitely take care of their own. Neighbors looking out for neighbors.
I’m from small town texas with a population of less than 1K. This song is on the money. It doesn’t matter your race here. We will protect and serve each other at all costs. Don’t think you’re coming here to burn this town down. The result will be the opposite of what you had planned. As a white man, if anyone in my community find themselves in trouble as described by this video, whether they are white, black, brown, red or green, you can put your life savings on everyone from my county showing up to put an end to it. Forget town. This entire county will meet you on the street. People think it’s cool to follow the “mainstream” way of life. What they fail to realize is it’s not as mainstream as they believe.
This song is what being a good human is about. Defend your neighbors and help them when needed. Who cares about skin color. If your a good person your a good person.
I live in a small town in Texas. A large portion of our town own guns and will only use them if our families or neighbors are threatened (and for hunting, of course) Jason is singing for all Americans who love their country and their neighbors no matter the color. Love you Jason Aldean
God Bless our small towns. Had a tornado 3 years ago. My husband passed away 10 years ago, last week would have been our 50th anniversary. My kitten and I were under the staircase in a small coat closet. Sounded like machine gun was hitting the back of the house, due to baseball sized hail. Heard beating on my front front door. It was Joey across the street and Michael next door. My bedroom was scattered with broken glass and Venetian blinds. They got the window covered. Had to get whole back of house and garage resided. New roof; one broken sky light; new gutters and guards. Yes…….God bless a small town.
He is literally talking about if he sees his neighbor getting robbed or a local business that he knows the guy/women in the store they arent going to sit and watch it happen hes going to handle that guy robbing them. Which is a good attitude to have and i feel like thats what a lot of countries need these days.
I’ve never bought a country song until now but it was the best $1.25 I’ve ever spent. They seriously tried to Bud Light him nope. They were warned that they wouldn’t like us if they pushed us too far it’s not just country music fans that “stand with Jason Alden” it’s a song for real Americans, the ones that love our country
Thank you for your reaction....I, too was raised in a small town in Texas. We take care of everyone in our community. If you need help we all come together regardless of race. That's what it's all about....Love for our nieghbors!
I'm in Knoxville Tennessee less than 2 hrs from where this was filmed and where Jason lives. Everything in the video is real and recent news footage. All this song is saying: keep your crime away from us because we take care of our neighbors and community. We don’t care about race, religion, or different views... we band together against crime.
I've lived all of my 65 years in a small town, and plan to live out my days in this same town. Nothing racist about this song. The message is in the chorus: "Around here we take care of our own." And if you decide to bring your big city crime, rioting, and looting to our small town you'll see how far you get down the road- it won't be very far.
I’ve heard it’s the videos playing, they are all from news broadcasts. Then it was the building he is standing in front of, apparently a lynching happen there in approximately 1827. He is only speaking the truth. ❤
I've lived in a small town out in the country and in a much larger suburb. I want to go back to the small town where we all watched out for one another. I miss that family/ community feel. All who lived there were like family.
They actually did try that in a very small town here in southern Illinois, when the riots were going on. They were met with trucks, tractors, combines, you name it, lined up and men with shotguns as their not so welcome wagon. They turned it it around and headed back to the city!
I grew up just outside a town of less than 2000 people and many years ago and around Christmas main Street caught on fire and 3 business burned down. Everyone was helping anyway they could. After the flames went out we all went to the other side of the street for a drink and some food. The bartender had put a big box on the bar for donations to help and by the end of the night it was overflowing because everyone gave what they could.
I'm from a small town in Missouri called cuba we may have 3000 people are less and I tell ya that wouldn't happen around here!!! There is nothing racist about that song Jason is just telling you the truth
I live in the middle of nowhere. Where I live, people do take care of others. Whenever someone is ill or unfortunately has past away, you will never have to worry about cooking for a month. We cook casseroles & other dishes. Our churches get involved if money is needed. I don't even have to lock my doors. My husband is from DC, so he is a bit paranoid about leaving our house doors unlocked, so he locks them. My county has only had 3 homicides in the last 20 years. Believe me, I know how fortunate I am, & I am far from being rich.
Im from a small town on the Florida Georgia line! Leo husband and E7 son... yep we will not have ANY of that shite here!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 if they want to tear up their town , that's on them. Not over here!!
Been waiting for you to react to this, and your reaction was just what I hoped for- and you are right....nothing racist here. You know, if a person hears a song about violent crime that neither mentions nor shows black people, but he/she immediately assumes that song and video is about black people being criminals, then THAT PERSON is the racist.
Loved your reaction. You nailed it. People in our small towns we stink together and protect each other. We help each other. A great song musically too!
I am from a city. Los Angeles to be exact. I do not see anything racist here. I have lived in small towns and they do look afterward one and other so much more than a city. I do miss the small town living. Thank you Craig for the reaction!!
I grew up in the country and the closest town was small. Knew the kids and their parents from church and school. This song hits home because everybody knew everybody.
I love your reaction! I watch a young black man review this and he reacted much like you did. He stated that the ones who thinks it's racist are the ones who are racists.
I'm from a small town, we're family and we take care of one other, there's nothing racist about it, thank you for your reaction and I hope you and your family have a blessed evening 🙏 sending you love from Lafayette Georgia 🍑
I knew end up over there. It's spread like wildfire bad ass song. I'm glad you got to enjoy it . Cant wait see what your view is Love your videos big fan 🤠🇺🇲
I’ve seen many reviews just to hear the song over and over again and the opinions. All has said it’s not racist at all, which is true.. beautiful song!
They should never have removed the videos. I love this song. It is not racist and not been deleted. Think about all the rap songs that they can say what they want. I grew up in a small town and it is true.
To me this song is more about what small community's are all about helping each other when they need it ... DEFINITELY NOT racist imo .personally I think we need more songs with meaning like this.❤
We are families and we stand with our families and friends and take care old the elderly and people in need. Does not matter about skin color or nationality we are all together taking care of each other in these small towns.
I’m a citizen of the town this video was shot. I worked a block away from that courthouse. Jason Aldean is correct. We are a richly diverse community that comes together to celebrate often, and we will also come together to help our neighbors. When you harm a member/establishment of this community you hurt the community as a whole. We don’t allow such nonsense. Societal decorum will be maintained otherwise people will intervene. These are our family and friends homes and businesses. Keep cognizant of that. You may think you’re just destroying a shop, but we know that the owner is Mr. Rick, a kind widowed gentleman who has helped and supported the community for decades. We respect our town and , if you want to try that nonsense here, consequences will be reaped.
Columbia is a beautiful town, I did landscaping at two historical buildings there one downtown. One had a huge fountain and a courtyard and statues the other was a big farm called the peacock. Amazing! The black people in Columbia didn't seem "oppressed" at all but I was by their loud car speakers lol. People don't know what the hell they're talking about!!! And I'm from up north!!!
Jason has had some great Songs in the past. Two songs that are memorable for me are Tattoos On This Town and Laughed Until We Cried. I love the message in these songs.would recommend these songs to do a reaction to.
Hi from Indiana :) This song is FIRE and no one can cancel Jason Aldean..... Now that the "Silent Majority" a.k.a. us Conservatives have finally stopped being quiet stuff is starting to change...... This song went mega viral, the movie Sound of Freedom went mega viral, Bud Light has been destroyed and Disney is losing masses amount of money. The Patriots in the USA are tired of it and have had enough!!!!!!!!!
This is a song about not acting like an a$$hole. More people should understand consequences. That is the message here.
It's also a song about violently suppressing legal free speech that you don't agree with. Cussing out a cop and burning the flag are legal protected activities and no one should have their speech suppressed with threats of violence.
I don't agree with burning the flag, I'll stand up and protect a person's right to do so. Free Speech includes legal speech and activities I don't agree with.
Spitting on an officer or anyone for that matter is not free speech, it’s called an assault. And you can be arrested for it. As well you should.
@@TexasRose50 yup, which is why I've only ever objected to the "Cussing out a Cop" and the Flag lyrics as trying to suppress free speech with threats of violence.
Small Town citizen here. What he says about us is true. Respect goes a long way.
AMEN!!
You can do alot of things in life, but you ain't gonna act a fool as long as I am alive. Best advice my mom ever gave me.

I love it.
Rural unincorporated East North Carolinian here-doesn’t matter your race or economic background-we look out for each other🇺🇸
Jason Aldean is a good citizen of the country. Amen!
I’ve never bought a country song until now but it was the best $1.25 I’ve ever spent. They seriously tried to Bud Light him nope. They were warned that they wouldn’t like us if they pushed us too far it’s not just country music fans that “stand with Jason Alden” it’s a song for real Americans, the ones that love our country
Thank you for your reaction....I, too was raised in a small town in Texas. We take care of everyone in our community. If you need help we all come together regardless of race. That's what it's all about....Love for our nieghbors!
Thank you for reacting this..... I agree with this and you....
I'm in Knoxville Tennessee less than 2 hrs from where this was filmed and where Jason lives. Everything in the video is real and recent news footage. All this song is saying: keep your crime away from us because we take care of our neighbors and community. We don’t care about race, religion, or different views... we band together against crime.
I've lived all of my 65 years in a small town, and plan to live out my days in this same town. Nothing racist about this song. The message is in the chorus: "Around here we take care of our own." And if you decide to bring your big city crime, rioting, and looting to our small town you'll see how far you get down the road- it won't be very far.
Great song great message
I love this song
United we stand, divided we fall, couldn't agree more, new sub, thanks, God bless.
Right on, brother across the pond!!🙂❤
it's about 'bad' behavior, and the ones complaining about the song are the ones that don't like being called out on their own 'bad' behavior
I'm from a small town in the Mid-west and if those people came to our town and tried that stuff we would run them back out of town!!!
I’ve heard it’s the videos playing, they are all from news broadcasts. Then it was the building he is standing in front of, apparently a lynching happen there in approximately 1827. He is only speaking the truth. ❤
Jason Aldean did it again 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Target Corp: We can sink our own company faster than anyone.
CMT: Hold my Bud Light
I love this Song!
Totally agree. Not racist, just expressing that in a small town, we take care of our own, our neighbors, regardless of race.
I've lived in a small town out in the country and in a much larger suburb. I want to go back to the small town where we all watched out for one another. I miss that family/ community feel. All who lived there were like family.
Great song zero racism
Great reaction Craig!!Totally agree!!
I love this song. It’s true. People in small towns and rural a
Amen brother Couldn't have said it better.
They actually did try that in a very small town here in southern Illinois, when the riots were going on. They were met with trucks, tractors, combines, you name it, lined up and men with shotguns as their not so welcome wagon. They turned it it around and headed back to the city!
That guitar riff is the best I’ve ever heard and my husband is a musician.
I grew up just outside a town of less than 2000 people and many years ago and around Christmas main Street caught on fire and 3 business burned down. Everyone was helping anyway they could. After the flames went out we all went to the other side of the street for a drink and some food. The bartender had put a big box on the bar for donations to help and by the end of the night it was overflowing because everyone gave what they could.
A small town girl here and I respect that song,! I would hate to see my town destroyed like we didn't care about it !!!
I'm from a small town in Missouri called cuba we may have 3000 people are less and I tell ya that wouldn't happen around here!!! There is nothing racist about that song Jason is just telling you the truth
This video is so powerful!
I live in the middle of nowhere. Where I live, people do take care of others. Whenever someone is ill or unfortunately has past away, you will never have to worry about cooking for a month. We cook casseroles & other dishes. Our churches get involved if money is needed. I don't even have to lock my doors. My husband is from DC, so he is a bit paranoid about leaving our house doors unlocked, so he locks them. My county has only had 3 homicides in the last 20 years. Believe me, I know how fortunate I am, & I am far from being rich.
Im from a small town on the Florida Georgia line! Leo husband and E7 son... yep we will not have ANY of that shite here!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 if they want to tear up their town , that's on them. Not over here!!
Been waiting for you to react to this, and your reaction was just what I hoped for- and you are right....nothing racist here. You know, if a person hears a song about violent crime that neither mentions nor shows black people, but he/she immediately assumes that song and video is about black people being criminals, then THAT PERSON is the racist.
What he is saying is, we will not stand for it…and I 100% agree..awesome track.
Loved your reaction. You nailed it. People in our small towns we stink together and protect each other. We help each other. A great song musically too!
I am from a city. Los Angeles to be exact. I do not see anything racist here. I have lived in small towns and they do look afterward one and other so much more than a city. I do miss the small town living. Thank you Craig for the reaction!!
I grew up in the country and the closest town was small. Knew the kids and their parents from church and school. This song hits home because everybody knew everybody.
I love your reaction! I watch a young black man review this and he reacted much like you did. He stated that the ones who thinks it's racist are the ones who are racists.
Great reaction. Spot on analysis.
He's speaking for the small town... we love our peace....Dont try to destroy it..We'll protect it and those we love...
Love this song and the message. It's a call to regular Americans everywhere to stand against violence if any kind
I'm from a small town, we're family and we take care of one other, there's nothing racist about it, thank you for your reaction and I hope you and your family have a blessed evening 🙏 sending you love from Lafayette Georgia 🍑
I knew end up over there. It's spread like wildfire bad ass song. I'm glad you got to enjoy it . Cant wait see what your view is Love your videos big fan 🤠🇺🇲
Facts Craig! Great reaction!
I agree 100%.
I’ve seen many reviews just to hear the song over and over again and the opinions. All has said it’s not racist at all, which is true.. beautiful song!
I’t definitely isn’t racist he just showing and stating the facts! I don’t understand the craziness. Thanks Craig for your perspective.
Its a beautiful song. We should all feel this way about our own town ...
They should never have removed the videos. I love this song. It is not racist and not been deleted. Think about all the rap songs that they can say what they want.
I grew up in a small town and it is true.
To me this song is more about what small community's are all about helping each other when they need it ... DEFINITELY NOT racist imo .personally I think we need more songs with meaning like this.❤
We are families and we stand with our families and friends and take care old the elderly and people in need. Does not matter about skin color or nationality we are all together taking care of each other in these small towns.
Thank you,love Jason Allen songs
Also loved your reaction ❤
🥰🤗👍👏 So glad you got the point. This song is incredible and very much an expression of how a lot of people feel.
The clips of riots and violence are all from news footage. Sad state that our country has fallen in. Hope and pray we can recover from this craziness
The majority of the footage isn't from the US. People do their homework...pretty impressive to find out where he's using footage from.
Great reaction- God bless small town America and our flyover states🇺🇸🙏❤️
I’m a citizen of the town this video was shot. I worked a block away from that courthouse. Jason Aldean is correct. We are a richly diverse community that comes together to celebrate often, and we will also come together to help our neighbors. When you harm a member/establishment of this community you hurt the community as a whole. We don’t allow such nonsense. Societal decorum will be maintained otherwise people will intervene. These are our family and friends homes and businesses. Keep cognizant of that. You may think you’re just destroying a shop, but we know that the owner is Mr. Rick, a kind widowed gentleman who has helped and supported the community for decades. We respect our town and , if you want to try that nonsense here, consequences will be reaped.
Columbia is a beautiful town, I did landscaping at two historical buildings there one downtown. One had a huge fountain and a courtyard and statues the other was a big farm called the peacock. Amazing! The black people in Columbia didn't seem "oppressed" at all but I was by their loud car speakers lol. People don't know what the hell they're talking about!!! And I'm from up north!!!
Jason has had some great Songs in the past. Two songs that are memorable for me are Tattoos On This Town and Laughed Until We Cried. I love the message in these songs.would recommend these songs to do a reaction to.
Hi from Indiana :) This song is FIRE and no one can cancel Jason Aldean..... Now that the "Silent Majority" a.k.a. us Conservatives have finally stopped being quiet stuff is starting to change...... This song went mega viral, the movie Sound of Freedom went mega viral, Bud Light has been destroyed and Disney is losing masses amount of money. The Patriots in the USA are tired of it and have had enough!!!!!!!!!
This is a great song and your commentary was spot on . Thank you for sharing!
From a small town in Georgia to even an smaller town in Wyoming. This song speaks for both. Love small town life
Great song and message! If a person thinks this song is racist, then they are part of the problem, not Jason.
Great reaction , thank you !
Amen, I think it's a great song
