In the days after a terrorist opened fire on a crowd of people at a Las Vegas country music festival—killing 58 people and wounding 546 others—the genre was forced to address its relationship with guns. A small percentage of artists publicly changed their stance on gun control, some distanced themselves from the NRA's country music promotional arm, and Roseanne Cash wrote a powerful gun control op-ed in The New York Times. Others, like Big & Rich's Kenny Alphin, declared their allegiance to firearms and the second amendment. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
