Sheryl Crow is disappointed in the country music community.\u00a0 The\u00a0Grammy Award-winner believes that more of her peers need to speak out in favor of gun control.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou would think after Vegas we would see some leadership from our country community,\u201d Crow told the Guardian, in a recent interview<\/a>. \u201cBut all I can say about that is if there\u2019s money involved, and fear, these conversations come to a screeching halt.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no one that I know of in the popular country world that is willing to step out and really to take a stand on this, and that\u2019s really unfortunate.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope there will be people who find a way out of their fear, who stick up for humanity as opposed to sticking with their fanbase or the money that can come along with having those large crowds,” she continued.<\/p>\n

Well, maybe Crow doesn’t know about anti-gunners Faith Hill and Tim McGraw<\/a>.\u00a0 Or, Will Hogue, who published a song earlier this month bashing the NRA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Point is, there are country musicians who have come out in favor of gun control.\u00a0 While it’s probably true that some don’t out of fear it will affect their bottom line, what is also likely is that many more\u00a0practice what they preach in their songs.\u00a0 That is to say, a majority of country artists support the Second Amendment.\u00a0 That’s why they don’t feel the need to “take a stand.”<\/p>\n

What bothers me about Crow’s comments is the presumption that being pro-gun is antithetical to being pro-humanity.\u00a0 It’s not.\u00a0 Empowering people to defend themselves is about as pro-humanity as it gets.\u00a0 Violence against evil is what’s allowed mankind to flourish.<\/p>\n

Later in the interview, she talks about living in fear following Sandy Hook.\u00a0 Not knowing what to tell her young children about mass shootings.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a horrible feeling for my kids to not even be able to know what happened at Sandy Hook,\u201d Crow said, \u201cfor fear they\u2019ll walk into school and think they\u2019re not in a safe place, or that mom will go to work and there\u2019s a chance she may not come home if there\u2019s somebody in the audience with a gun.\u201d<\/p>\n

I can empathize with Sheryl’s dilemma.\u00a0 It’s a question every parent faces.\u00a0 How do we keep children safe in an unsafe world?\u00a0<\/em> Crow can choose to answer that however she sees fit.<\/p>\n

But she also needs to remember that for millions of Americans, keeping their children safe is directly tied to keeping and bearing arms.\u00a0 Attacking that right, or attempting to infringe on that right, is an attack on their humanity.<\/p>\n

I wish we\u00a0could wave a magic wand to rid the world of all the bad eggs.\u00a0 Alas, we can’t.\u00a0 Until we can, we’ll have to make do with our guns.\u00a0 Or in Sheryl’s case, an armed security detail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
