The widow of a retired officer who was killed in the 2020 Black Lives Matter (BLM) riot spoke out in support of Jason Aldean’s new song.
In an interview on “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Ret. Police Sgt. Ann Dorn, whose husband, David was killed during the riots, defended Aldean’s song “Try That In A Small Town” and called the controversy “absurd” after watching the Music video.
“It speaks of small-town values. It speaks of community values. It speaks of standing up for ourselves,” she said.
Continuing, Dorn inquired, “When did it become illegal in the United States of America for us to stand up for ourselves? That’s our given rights to protect ourselves, our life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.”
She further explained she understood Aldean’s intentions behind the song despite the criticism it has received.
“It’s a sense of community. It’s a sense of neighborhood. It’s a sense of taking care of each other, and we’ve gotten so far away from that that it’s actually very scary,” she added.
When asked by Watters if she wished “there were more small-town-minded people around” on the night of her husband’s murder, Dorn responded, “I do. There’s a lot of disrespect now and there’s no sense of community, and people don’t stand up for their community.”
