Country singer Will Hogue pulls no punches in his new song, titled, “Thoughts & Prayers.”<\/p>\n

Written in the immediate aftermath of the mass killing in Sutherland Springs, TX, the song takes aim at pro-gun politicians and the NRA.<\/p>\n

“Another politician sitting far away \/Doesn’t matter how many people got gunned down today \/As long as you can keep your re-election bills paid \/You’re just a whore to the pimp that’s called the NRA,” sings the 45-year-old musician.<\/p>\n

Hogue spoke to Rolling Stone Magazine<\/a> about what led him to call out the nation’s gun lobby.<\/p>\n

“I’d been becoming increasingly annoyed by the statement of ‘thoughts and prayers’ for some time,” said Hogue.”From my own experience, I know that phrase can be a kind and thoughtful way to express sympathy when there is no other way to help, but after these shootings, using that stock response from these cowards on Capitol Hill is incredibly insulting.”<\/p>\n

“They have all the opportunities in the world to make a difference, but they do nothing,” he continued.\u00a0 “Then to just send out a phrase like ‘thoughts and prayers,’ as if we don’t all know that there is something they could do? It’s shameful.”<\/p>\n

Hogue went on to talk about how other country artists have partnered with the NRA under the organization’s “NRA Country” brand.\u00a0 He said that the NRA even spoke to him about featuring one of his songs.\u00a0 But Hogue declined the offer, turning down what is to many a great promotional opportunity.<\/p>\n

“I’m very anti-NRA, and I had thought I had made that abundantly clear personally and career-wise, but I had been approached by NRA Country about featuring one of my songs, “Strong,” and I wasn’t willing to do that,” he explained.\u00a0 “That’s not an organization I want anything to do with.”<\/p>\n

Hmmm.\u00a0 I wonder if Mr. Hogue knows that it was an NRA-certified instructor <\/a>that confronted the killer at that small Texas church on Nov. 5. A man by the name of\u00a0Stephen Willeford. He grabbed his AR-15 and engaged the maniac, sending the perp fleeing. Willeford’s actions that day indubitably saved lives.<\/p>\n

Again, Willeford was a former NRA instructor<\/em>.\u00a0 Now I get Hogue’s point about “thoughts & prayers” being a rather hollow thing to say to victims in the wake of an unthinkable tragedy.\u00a0 Makes sense.\u00a0 It’s a futile attempt to console the inconsolable.<\/p>\n

But don’t judge the NRA by their words, judge them by their actions. Willeford was able to intervene that day because his right to keep and bear arms was fully intact.\u00a0 At the end of the day, that’s what the NRA fights for. Ensuring citizens can defend themselves and each other from those that seek to do them harm.<\/p>\n

We live in a violent and unpredictable world.\u00a0 When the chips are down, I am certain that I’d rather be armed than unarmed. As fallible as it is, I can thank the NRA that I still have a choice in the matter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
