Jason Aldean's "Try That in a Small Town" video shows footage from riots in other countries and his fans are sending threats to the Tik Toker who found the real sources

“The Daily Show” sent Jason Jones to Palin’s home town to poke fun at what a generic suburban strip-mall place it is — clearly devoid of whatever people imagine to be small-town authenticity — but it was 15 years ago and Comedy Central does not seem to be maintaining old video links

This song is a lot closer to the mark, re: small towns:

And that’s why he wrote it.
Clickbait.
Though, he might be a raging asshole as well.

Sounds like Cumbria. It’s just one of many reasons why I won’t move back there.

But clickbait or not, you don’t write a pro-lynching song without being an asshole and in particular racist.

You are, of course, correct, and it was dumb of me to give this jackass the benefit of the doubt.
Mea culpa.

Was he too cheap to buy footage from the Riot Squad, or does Fox have an exclusive contract?

eta: Alternately, considering Andy Ngo & friends factual accuracy, maybe it did come from the Riot Squad?

Worse, the average case there involves someone who murders at least three people in separate incidents, making them a serial killer. There’s obviously something in the water…

omg, I’d nearly forgotten about him. I am lucky enough to know how to ride a horse, and how to keep the beasts happy. I checked the video again, and yeah, all I could thinks is “Who let this happen?” I hope the horse threw his sorry arse.

He’s just precious all dolled up like that. I wonder if when he does a swirl you can see matching panties

The classic line in every episode; “Sir, there’s been another murder!”

I lived in Midsomer for over 10 years. It was great fun to visit the villages and towns used for locations and point out; “That’s the window Mrs Miggins got defenestrated from. That’s the pub where DI Barnaby questioned such and such a suspect.”

Now I live in Father Brown territory.

Much safer - they don’t even have a murder in every episode!
