I'm Still Angry

In 2002 Toby Keith released "The Angry American" By June of 2003 it was a popular favorite here in Middle America.
As we prepared for Independence Day, officials in a local town decreed that "the Angry American" Would NOT be played in their fair city during celebrations. We also had certain noise personalities decrying the song. A local radio station too the opportunity as a chalenge. Their entry in the parade played only "The Angry American", and behind their SUV they pulled a trailer containing large 44x44 cardboard boxes on pallets into which we could donate a boot.
