Whoopi Goldberg, co-host of “The View,” went absolutely ballistic over the brand new song, “Try That in a Small Town,” from country superstar Jason Aldean, which many woke critics have claimed contains racist lyrics, making the case that Black Lives Matter rioters during the aftermath of the death of George Floyd, were simply “taking care” of their towns when the destroyed local businesses and looted to their heart’s content. Ladies and gentlemen, I’m convinced that Goldberg is completely, utterly, and helplessly insane. I can think of no other explanation for this insanity.
According to the latest report from the Daily Wire, “Goldberg made the comments during Thursday’s broadcast of ‘The View’ on ABC, following controversy over Aldean’s most recent release, ‘Try That in a Small Town.’ She argued that Black Lives Matter rioters were no different than the small-town people depicted in Aldean’s music video defending their own.”
Faux conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin claims the song promotes racist mobs chasing down black men.

“He’s talking about people taking care of each other, and I find it so interesting that it never occurred to Jason or the writers that that’s what these folks were doing,” Goldberg stated during the program. “They were taking care of the people in their town because they didn’t like what they saw, just like you’re talking about people taking care of each other in small towns. We do the same thing in big towns.”
Please enlighten us all how burning down businesses and stealing all of their goods is helping them take care of each other? The owners of these establishments cannot put food on the table for their families, make their house or car payments, or pay for any other sort of necessity when their livelihood is obliterated like this. Taking away another person’s means of provision is not exactly what I’d call “helping each other.”
“Goldberg again accused Aldean of making the song a commentary about Black Lives Matter — despite the fact that the group was not mentioned once in the song. Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin followed Goldberg, noting that there were two sides to the issue and suggesting that while Aldean may not have meant the song to be taken the way some have taken it, the lyrics did remind her of white people chasing down black people in the streets,” the report said.
Later on, co-host Sunny Hostin decided to weigh in on the song, stating she couldn’t be gracious enough to give Jason Aldean the benefit of the doubt due to the fact she visited his hometown of Macon, Georgia, and believed the whole town to be “racist.”
Flaunting her insanity, Hostin claims the song is popular because America is a racist country. "We have a problem in this country about race and the biggest problem is, we refuse to admit that it exists!" she exclaimed.

She then went on to say that her dad was also from Macon and Augusta, stating she spent numerous summers in the area during her childhood. “It is one of the most racist places in this country,” she bloviated. “Don’t tell me that he knew nothing about what that imagery meant and what he – so I don’t give him the benefit of the doubt.”
Hostin then said that when she heard Aldean’s song, her mind went to a dark place and time, when blacks were not safe after sundown, which has not been the case for decades now, but hey, why let modern facts and truth get in the way of a good race bait.
“We have a problem in this country about race and the biggest problem is, we refuse to admit that it exists!” she whined. Who has said that racism does not exist? Of course it exists. Sin exists. Human beings are imperfect beings corrupted by sin. So, logically, racism exists.
Here’s what folks say does not exist: institutional racism.
That was done away with a long, long time ago. Perhaps Hostin and others who share her point of view need to stop trying to pretend like they are living in pre-Civil Rights era America and actually find a worthy cause to fight for that actually exists today?
