Rock ’n’ roll legend Ted Nugent over the weekend weighed in on the outrage over country singer Jason Aldean’s new song, “Try That in a Small Town,” saying that many of those who take issue with the song’s message are “idiots.”

“Try That in a Small Town” was released in May, with a music video for the song dropping on CMT on July 14.
