This week, in my country, considered by some of its more embarrassing denizens to be the greatest country in the world, an outspoken Florida gun rights advocate left a loaded .45 calibre handgun in the back seat of her car and was promptly shot and wounded by her four-year-old child. Truly a pinnacle of human potential, much like the invention of paper in second-century BC China, or Aristotle holding forth in the Lyceum, or whoever first pointed out that Florida looks like Americas penis.

Hank Williams, Jr. is not afraid of controversy, but according to the artist, his new song God and Guns from his most recent record Its About Time doesnt fall into that category.

While many may consider the sentiments in the tune envelope-pushing in todays climate, Williams doesnt see it that way. In fact, he says it reminds him of a song hes released in the past. In my world its not controversial. Its pretty strong, he says via Big Machine. It reminds you of Country Boy Can Survive. Very slow, low notes, big rockin build up.
