November 6th and yet again it's the CMA Awards
The 47th in fact

Why do these people get away with this blatantly racially defined competition?
There must be dozens of British clog dancers, brass bands and bagpipers who would like to enter but know it's hopeless unless one hails from America or Canada.
I know the usual flock of apologists for this sort of thing will say people of any race or creed can enter, but based on previous results you can bet the vast majority of winners will be white, from the mid west and wearing silly big hats indoors.
I bet if someone (such as BBC Radio 2) tried to hold British Folk Awards they'd be shot down in flames for being racist and anti-cowboy.
Perhaps other ABers will join in condemning this celebration of MOWO
(Music of Wildwest Origin) prejudice
