He's headlining a ... *barf* ... Sandy Hook benefit concert. When did Tim McGraw become a communist traitor? Doesn't he know those kids died for the right to keep Obama away from our guns, and playing this concert is like slapping Jesus in the face?

But for real, why in the hell does he have to explain his decision here? Gun culture is becoming more and more like a religion every day.

Oh shut up with the faux outrage. Gun crime is down, just like pretty much all crime in the U.S.

Down from what? What are the figures???

I don't even have a problem with that. My problem is that he had to apologize for playing a Sandy Hook benefit concert.So his publicist legitimately thought his image would be hurt by that. Which is pathetic.

His publicist thought his image would be hurt by appearing with an anti-second amendment group. Think of that what you may, but that was the reason.

Except for the fact they're not an "anti-second amendment" group.

Here is the trend for violent crime since 2009.

It is even more drastic over the last 25 years. And yes I know not all "violent crime" involves a gun.

Crime is down because most of them are in jail. Watch out if a lot of them get out because crime could spike up in some areas.
