Several prominent Kat Country 103 artists commented on social media about this weekend’s violence in Charlottesville, VA. On Saturday, Tim McGraw shared this on his Facebook page “This cannot stand. These days surely MUST be behind us. #stayhumbleandkind #charlottesville. Then earlier today he posted this version of “Humble & Kind” that was sent to him by radio station Hitkicker 99.7 in Charlottesville with audio of some of their listeners reactions.
Kip Moore had a very strongly worded reaction denouncing racism on Facebook that got a lot of reaction from his fans…
If your parents taught u 2 hate people of color they’re idiots. If you’re an adult & still spewing their hate, that makes u a bigger idiot

Brothers Osbourne pointed out the irony of what our grandfathers and great-grandfathers fought against in World War 2 revisiting us…
The world’s oldest man, an Auschwitz survivor, died today while men with Nazi flags marched thru Charlottesville, VA. We have so far to go.

Maren Morris, who just played in Wheatland and at Shoreline over the weekend while opening for Sam Hunt tweeted this…
Extremely sad at the seething hatred that still lives here. I just don’t know what to say anymore. We’re better than this. #Charlottesville
