I liked your reaction! #HOG in the house. For those in the comments attacking this man shame on you!! He said if he miss understood please explain in the comments. So explain DANG don’t attack the gentleman!! The hanging bar, was referring to his previous bar about treason. People were hung for treason in the past. That is what he was referring to. I hope that provide some clarity for you. Great reaction. I’m glad you enjoyed this song overall.

[@tloosereacts2830]

Thank you for explaining much appreciated!!

[@TheDoors777]

Im black and filipino. The song isnt racist. He was referencing being hung for treason and the evils going on in cathedrals

[@kshaek]

He was actually referencing our military troops being hung in Cathedrals in Islamic territory based on religious views...😢

[@kimkurihara9125]

No, the hanging part is a reference to treason. If you listen to the lyrics, he mentions treason before the hanging verse. Back in the day, they would hang you for treason…that’s what he’s referring to.

[@ThaiChinaMalay]

Exactly, nothing to do with race.

[@user-iq5oj5pt7o]

Hang Over Gang in the house! This old vet just loves the song! Salute to my over 16 million brother and sister veterans!

[@travisjones1697]

Adam is talking about the people who want to change kids “with procedures” he has been very vocally against that movement. In this song he is referencing those people as evil and that they need to be hanging from the ceilings. It is unfortunate that you are programmed to not hear the context, but only see it as racial. But that is this world…

[@bobs.3764]

The punishment for treason is hanging, goes directly to the previous bars. #HOG

[@carolynbifano]

I think the hanging part we related to the treason bar since hanging in the penalty for treason

[@Sheruff1978]

It is surprising how different people can hear things. I never in a million years would have thought anything racial about the hanging line. I’m honestly kinda surprised that connection was made. To be fair, I’m a fan of Adams and I know he grew up in Chicago in circles where he was the minority. His other work makes it very clear that he doesn’t care about care about skin color he cares about character. It’s pretty clear to those that know his work who he wants hanging. Lol good reaction man. I love seeing people’s first taste of Adam and Tom.

[@Throlas]

Its a unity song, meant to bring us all together.

[@MVREZZIK]

People have been conditioned to look at everything as race related and looking for it to be racism especially if it’s a white person. That’s what I believe he is referencing when he’s said all they want is division earlier in the song

[@Prozak63]

Every word you spoke at the intro was exactly how everyone should aproach everything they deal with each day.

[@theresamorris2567]

I believe in the truth and tom and adam say it like it is. Love it

[@joefretz7100]

If an old school may lend some knowledge to the totality of the meaning of this song, please allow me to give a brief history lesson to contrast current events. The Revolutionary War, also known as The War of 1776 and The War of Independence, was a very big deal. Our Fathers rebelled against King George in Britain, and thus a bloody battle was fought for the rights and freedoms we have. They formed The Declaration of Independence, which was the letter they sent to King George. They wrote the Constitution, The Bill of Rights, and the Amendments. Now these documents say that ALL men are created equal under one God, and as such are endowed with inalienable rights. Of which, are the right to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The Fist Amendment is our freedom of speech. This includes the right to assemble and exchange ideas in free and open dialogue. "As iron sharpens iron, so one man will sharpen another." Proverbs 18 The Second Amendment is The right to keep and bare arms. That a citizen population should be well stocked and supplied to defend against a tyrannical government. These men wrote this with you and me in mind. Look at the world today. Don't judge it. Just look at it. What do you see. Listen. What do you hear? In your heart, what do you know?

[@LaceyMediaProductions]

He said when you look in my closet you're going to see more than hangers, and then he says hammers meaning a gun, like he does construction, ammo. Going to shoot at something, meaning if you look in his closet you're going to see a bunch of guns and ammo lol. I do hear what you're saying about the hanging from ceilings like chandeliers, but Adams from Chicago and just has a very different style. I would be willing to put money on the fact that he does not mean it in the way you're interpreting it. But I can see why you would draw that parallel. It's okay not to like certain parts lol. I don't think Adam meant it that way though. Glad you like the song overall! Great reaction, I'll be subbing! Did I

[@chriswi8511]

There is nothing racist about this song!! We are all Americans 🇺🇸

[@blueloulove]

It was referenced because you commit Treason you are hung it isn’t a racist thing at all… thank you for your reaction God bless

[@robertringler8659]

All colors have been hung in the past. Js

[@northnova1358]

Great reaction 🇺🇸🇨🇦 I can say from the reactions I’ve watched (Too many) 4 out of 10 reactors will make a face then laugh it off and keep going! I can’t explain the bar but I’m sure he can so I’ll give people the benefit of the doubt! 💯%You should react more🙏🏻

[@tloosereacts2830]

Hey guys listen just understand that I don’t think these guys are racist or what they said was racist. That fact they everyone is commenting and being rude about a natural reaction. Me being a black man from Chicago and the environment I grew up in I love the way I think and how opened minded I am about any and everything. Please use the comments to educate and communicate verse judge.

[@codygregg6683]

Hanging isn't a racist term. People of all races have been hung for literally thousands of years. I'm good with not using racist terminology. I'm not good with being told I can or can't use common words.

[@garyphillips4701]

The Green masks are from Tom's merch store and he wears them in other vids. The the Democrats hung black people not us, they hung white Republicans too.. Treason is a hanging offense, that bar is dope.

[@conniezier6662]

It crazy 10 years ago no one would of thought this song was raciest. If this would of came out after 9/11 everyone would of been jamming this.crazy

[@angelacarney8531]

The first time I heard this song, My eyebrow raised when hearing that part of the song also, BUT ISN’T THAT THE PROBLEM, THE GOVERNMENT HAS SPENT THE LAST THREE YEARS SETTING US BACK 50 YEARS! They have made everything about Race, and have done nothing but instigate HATRED AND wanting us to turn on each other! if there was ever a time when THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO STAND UNITED ,ITS RIGHT NOW! we have got to stop letting them use racism to promote whatever agenda they have! This country was built on many cultures and many religions, and the acceptance of all! UNITED is the only way we’re gonna keep our country!

[@mattkennedy4118]

There's nothing racist about this song whatsoever knowledge is power if you know you know

[@davidbrannon2627]

100%, the lyrics about hanging are in reference to treason, absolutely nothing to do with race ..........I unsubscribed due to his comment .......some folks always gotta flash that card

[@punkjay4681]

"Never gonna take the knee for the anthem" sounds like standing with the racists to me. Is there another way interpret this? Especially after making sure everyone knows he's white...

[@tloosereacts2830]

Thanks for subscribing in the first place! Wish you really got to know me more and how I feel.

[@burkleyanderson2355]

He said gov wants division first brother. Don't let that bar turn your heart please. Not bowing that's a invite bro not weakness believe that. Much love.

[@chago4202000]

You CAN say these words, this is America. The fact that you hear the word hanging and think of black people shows just how conditioned you have been to see everything through a racial lens. Hangars are commonly found in closets, what's in yours? Hanging has been a common penalty for all sorts of crimes, for all sorts of people, for as long as people have had rope.

[@tloosereacts2830]

I completely understand your point of view. Tbh the history before the slavery on hanging is different compared to how blacks were treated. Hanging before was a death penalty versus when blacks were getting hung just for being black. Listen I’m not that type of reactor this isn’t opened minded but lets not judge too much off a natural reaction.

[@chago4202000]

@@tloosereacts2830 I reread my comment and I do come off kind of aggressive, which was not my intention. Growing up in this country as someone who is not white, I always took my Freedom of Speech extremely seriously. I have the same ability to speak my mind as everyone else, no matter what color. Today I see more and more calls for censorship and people being told what they "can't" say, which flys in the face of one of my core beliefs. I was a teenager in the '90s. I can honestly say that the racial tension is far worse now than anything I ever experienced growing up. This is on purpose because it is easy to keep people fighting along racial lines, and as long as we are fighting each other, we are easily manipulated.

It's about Mussolini Italian dictator

Oh please! Neither of them have a racist bone in their bodies!

Please don’t try to make this a racist thing

Just do it!

[@kevinkarbonik2928]

Has NOTHING to do with any color.

It is a patriotic song and the penalty for treason is by hanging......it has nothing to do with race. And the people in charge are what color?

[@cmiller2469]

Next you should listen to Your America

Check out Black and White. Tom/Adam/Dax.

I just reacted to it it was dope

[@BigStarChilton]

Lots of people got hung in this country. In the wild west horse thieves littered the prairie trees.

[@rickm9001]

That's called whataboutisms

[@BigStarChilton]

It's called perspective. Just because you broke your leg in the past that doesn't mean every time someone mentions a broken leg they're talking about you.@@rickm9001

The lyrics about hanging, are 100% about treason, 0% about race.

[@edwarddoddy2130]

Regardless of what anyone’s position is, No matter what anyone says, Trump is the very first President since Reagan that has inspired American 🇺🇸 Patriotism in a very long time. As far as the Chandelier bar, it’s the same as, If you’re looking for trouble, You’ll find it, If you’re looking for racism, you’ll find it 🤷‍♂️

I cant believe him talking about hanging the government triggered you.

[@cornick115]

See here’s the problem when your mind goes to what you’re thinking when Adam was talking about the chandeliers that’s more on you because (the woke )that’s not what he meant but that’s how you mentally wanted to interpret it because that was the side he has pushed onto you… I appreciate you I’m a new subscriber and I do love your channel

[@tloosereacts2830]

I understand where you are coming from

[@cornick115]

[@manuelbadillo7768]

With all due disrespect I think your reach out

[@punkjay4681]

Tom goes "Anybody not tryna make America great again You a pawn, you a clown" and on the next verse Adam "Government they want division". Look who's talking... It's kinda scary how much hype a song that basically calls for a violent revolution can get.

You're wrong on that nothing was said a out race he said he would die for all his people patriots

[@thegame2030]

Yes you are VERY wrong and he can say whatever he wants! Ain't nothing racist or bad about what he said.

[@0331KJ]

Get out of the matrix of thinking brother! I get what your saying, but race has nothing to do with it.

[@MTAUBNVS]

Yeah your wrong

[@tloosereacts2830]

You’re haha

[@scottponce4067]

You're wrong as far as taking it the wrong way as a black man he's talking about traitors not black people

[@mhjyuti]

Brother people were hung forever all the time. People were enslaved everywhere. Blacks in America don't get to claim being oppressed as their own. I thought of the French Revolution when he said the hanging line. Not black people. Stop being so self-obsessed, as a people I mean.

[@cynjwilliams6886]

You're reaching about the hangers and chandeliers. 1) some people have their guns in their closets where hangers are. 2) you are missing the context regarding protecting America 3) the KKK hung white people too, but you're trying to imply that they are referencing lynching black people. Out of all of the many non-whites (including black) that I heard who did reaction videos for this song, you're the only one who tried to put a racist spin on it.

[@tloosereacts2830]

Thats fair I think I really dont try to look at things in that way even if you have listened to other of my reactions. But I can see your point

[@unclesamiswatching9295]

can see how the hanging part triggered you....don't think that's what he meant...anyway enjoyed the honest review..

[@tloosereacts2830]

Idk if it’s triggered because I didn’t get upset just thought maybe others would be upset about it so I thought it would be good to leave it out but after reading some of the comments it understand what he meant. So all good!

[@frankiebhoyz2169]

Annndd you need to understand that as a white man we get tired of you "mis understanding" things and calling people racist. You keep doing it and the R word becomes a little worn.
