Title: 'God Bless the USA' singer Lee Greenwood on why he pulled out of NRA convention: 'I just couldn't go'

Lee Greenwood said Friday that performing at this weekend's NRA convention would be an "endorsement" just days after the Uvalde, Texas school shooting.

The "God Bless the USA" singer joined "Fox & Friends" to address his decision to cancel his appearance at the event in Houston.

A day after "American Pie" singer Don McLean pulled out of the annual National Rifle Association convention, Larry Gatlin, Larry Stewart of Restless Heart and Greenwood announced they would also not perform.

Greenwood cited the timing of the Texas shooting as his reason for pulling out of the NRA convention. He said he and other artists had signed deals to play at the event, which was canceled in 2020 and 2021.

"The unfortunate shooting in Texas took place at a very bad time. And for me to go and play at the NRA just days after the shooting would be an endorsement. And people would then deem that as, I like this weapon. And obviously, that weapon killed kids. And I just couldn't go," he told hosts Brian Kilmeade, Pete Hegseth and Ainsley Earhardt.

"During this Memorial Day Weekend, we should also remember the servicemen and women, and first responders who’ve given their lives to protect our great country," Greenwood told Fox News Digital.

Greenwood says "that weapon killed kids."

Technically he's correct, but he forgot about the defective nut behind the trigger.

Greenwood is an old man, 78, not that far behind the dementia-riddled nut behind the US government. Maybe he's losing it, not unlike The Bidet, or he's trying to protect his family from the cancel culture mob. I worry about that myself.

I kinda doubt that Lee's turned into a bad man all of the sudden, maybe he's afraid of entering a no-win situation. He's probably got a lot more than me to lose, but I think there's still might be a way to win this "culture war."

That he's old is all the more reason he ought to denounce without waver the gun grabbing opportunists who are using these children's deaths to further their communist agenda.

"For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required." -- Luke 12:48

Greenwood has a national audience; if he were the 2nd Amendment supporter he professes to be he would "stand up next [us] and defend [gun rights] still today." Oh, he loves the USA, but not so much that wants you and me to be permitted the weapons to effectively defend ourselves and our families against government tyranny and civilian violent felons.

Fie on him and all his despicable ilk.

Amen to all that. You should be writing colyums and articles. You should be a youtuber -- could get you some nice $.

Who knows, Greasewood's ditty's so mindlessly peecee and delusional maybe the CIA paid him to concoct it.

Good to have you back, NN! I'm going to look for your recent treatise on Greasewood's soppy sigditty and link to it here if I can find it.

Regarding youtube: they'd surely ban me anon. You might recall my #2 saying that if she were a student at BJU and she didn't get thrown out in the first 15 minutes she would consider her life a complete failure?

You could say a lot in YT without tripping the Orange Alert, Strate -- or the YT alternatives. Or just blog, onymously if you druther!

Screamingly funny about 'the university'! BJU certainly has or had has its points -- am writing all my profs (the ones still living) glowingly about the experience and enclosing a little giftie.

More music I love to hate: Jewdy Garland, Lizard Minelli, Jimi Hendrix, Tony Bennett, Peggy Lee, The Lettermen, the Dead. Just checking pings here.
