Fuck tha police

[scaredyclassic]

Classic song, by n.w.a. 1988.

Wow. 32 years old.

Still fresh. Couldnt say that about 32 year old tunes in 1988. Maybe time has stopped and we are living in a crappy repetitive present.

“Right about now, N.W.A. court is in full effect
Judge Dre presiding
In the case of N.W.A. vs. the Police Department
Prosecuting attorneys are: MC Ren, Ice Cube
And Eazy motherfuckin’ E”
“Order, order, order
Ice Cube, take the motherfuckin’ stand
Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth
And nothin’ but the truth so help your black ass?”
“You god damn right!”
“Well, won’t you tell everybody what the fuck you gotta say?”
Fuck the police comin’ straight from the underground
A young nigga got it bad ’cause I’m brown
And not the other color so police think
They have the authority to kill a minority
Fuck that shit, ’cause I ain’t the one
For a punk motherfucker with a badge and a gun
To be beatin’ on, and thrown in jail
We can go toe to toe in the middle of a cell
Fuckin’ with me ’cause I’m a teenager
With a little bit of gold and a pager
Searchin’ my car, lookin’ for the product
Thinkin’ every nigga is sellin’ narcotics
You’d rather see, me in the pen
Than me and Lorenzo rollin’ in a Benz-o
Beat a police out of shape
And when I’m finished, bring the yellow tape
To tape off the scene of the slaughter
Still gettin’ swoll off bread and water
I don’t know if they fags or what
Search a nigga down, and grabbin’ his nuts
And on the other hand, without a gun they can’t get none
But don’t let it be a black and a white one
‘Cause they’ll slam ya down to the street top
Black police showin’ out for the white cop
Ice Cube will swarm
On any motherfucker in a blue uniform
Just ’cause I’m from the CPT
Punk police are afraid of me!
Huh, a young nigga on the warpath
And when I’m finished, it’s gonna be a bloodbath
Of cops, dyin’ in L.A.
Yo Dre, I got somethin’ to say
Fuck the police
Fuck the police
Fuck the police
Fuck the Police
“Example of scene one”
“Pull your god damn ass over right now”
“Aww shit, now what the fuck you pullin’ me over for?”
“‘Cause I feel like it!
Just sit your ass on the curb and shut the fuck up”
“Man, fuck this shit”
“Aight, smart ass, I’m takin’ your black ass to jail!”
“MC Ren, will you please give your testimony
To the jury about this fucked up incident?”
Fuck the police and Ren said it with authority
Because the niggas on the street is a majority
A gang, is with whoever I’m steppin’
And the motherfuckin’ weapon is kept in
A stash box, for the so-called law
Wishin’ Ren was a nigga that they never saw
Lights start flashin’ behind me
But they’re scared of a nigga so they mace me to blind me
But that shit don’t work, I just laugh
Because it gives ’em a hint, not to step in my path
For police, I’m sayin, “Fuck you, punk!”
Readin’ my rights and shit, it’s all junk
Pullin’ out a silly club, so you stand
With a fake-ass badge and a gun in your hand
But take off the gun so you can see what’s up
And we’ll go at it, punk, and I’ma fuck you up!
Make you think I’ma kick your ass
But drop your gat, and Ren’s gonna blast
I’m sneaky as fuck when it comes to crime
But I’m a smoke ’em now and not next time
Smoke any motherfucker that sweats me
Or any asshole that threatens me
I’m a sniper with a hell of a scope
Takin’ out a cop or two, they can’t cope with me
The motherfuckin’ villain that’s mad
With potential to get bad as fuck
So I’ma turn it around
Put in my clip, yo, and this is the sound
Yeah, somethin’ like that
But it all depends on the size of the gat
Takin’ out a police would make my day
But a nigga like Ren don’t give a fuck to say
Fuck the police
Fuck the police
Fuck the police
Fuck the Police
“Yeah man, what you need?”
“Police, open now”
“Aww shit”
“We have a warrant for Eazy-E’s arrest
Get down and put your hands up where I can see ’em”
“What the fuck did I do, man, what did I do?”
“Just shut the fuck up
And get your motherfuckin’ ass on the floor”
“But I didn’t do shit”
“Man, just shut the fuck up!”
“Eazy-E, won’t you step up to the stand
And tell the jury how you feel about this bullshit?”
I’m tired of the motherfuckin’ jackin’
Sweatin’ my gang, while I’m chillin’ in the shack, and
Shinin’ the light in my face, and for what?
Maybe it’s because I kick so much butt
I kick ass, or maybe ’cause I blast
On a stupid-assed nigga when I’m playin’ with the trigger
Of an Uzi or an AK
‘Cause the police always got somethin’ stupid to say
They put out my picture with silence
‘Cause my identity by itself causes violence
The E with the criminal behavior
Yeah, I’m a gangsta, but still I got flavor
Without a gun and a badge, what do ya got?
A sucker in a uniform waitin’ to get shot
By me or another nigga
And with a gat it don’t matter if he’s smaller or bigger
(Size ain’t shit, he’s from the old school, fool)
And as you all know, E’s here to rule
Whenever I’m rollin’, keep lookin’ in the mirror
And ears on cue, yo, so I can hear a
Dumb motherfucker with a gun
And if I’m rollin’ off the 8, he’ll be the one
That I take out, and then get away
While I’m drivin’ off laughin’, this is what I’ll say
Fuck the police
Fuck the police
Fuck the police
Fuck the Police
“The verdict
The jury has found you guilty of being a redneck
White bread, chicken shit motherfucker”
“But wait, that’s a lie!
That’s a god damn lie!”
“Get him out of here!”
“I want justice!”
“Get him the fuck out my face!”
“I want justice!”
“Out, right now!”
“Fuck you, you black motherfuckers!”
Fuck the police
Fuck the police
Fuck the police

Well lets not lump all police together.

I have a few that are close personal friends of mine and I can tell you that, at least my police friends, are very intelligent, warm, and funny people. And I can assure you they are not racists in the least. Far from it.

Are there bad apples? Sure. But the majority that I’ve personally met are great folks.

The one common trait I do see is that they like to step in if they see an injustice…I’m more picky and let sleeping dogs lie until it gets to be too bad to ignore. They step in way earlier than I do. Which spooks me sometimes but they are probably way more used to it and know they can have their uniformed buddies on the scene in just a couple of minutes. Me, I can’t say that.

I wish I could take credit for this, but as Chris Rock said….
I know it’s hard being a cop … But some jobs can’t have bad apples. Some jobs, everybody gotta be good. Like, pilots. American Airlines can’t be like, ‘You know, most of our pilots like to land, we just got a few bad apples that like to crash into mountains.’

[scaredyclassic]

Here was 4 that thought it was cool to choke a guy out on film.

Is that a bad apple or a systemic thing.

[scaredyclassic]

Dont get me wrong. I call 911 when im in trouble. But if i had bern dealt a different hand i prolly would avoid the cops

Can’t say that I seek them out either, best to stay clear cuz I just never know if i’m doing something on the edge of illegal – why tempt fate.

It’s just that the lyric “f the police” implies that they are all bad – and they are not. Just a few bad apples. Just as bad as saying all lawyers are ambulance chasers.

Do they need to be weeded out? Absolutely! no question about that.

They do exist just as bad pilots exist. Such as the one who tried to land in Pakistan with his landing gear up, killing 97 of 99 on board this month.

If u have 10 bad cops and 1000 good cops, and the 1000 good cops dont turn in the bad cops, you have 1,010 bad cops .

Which is prety much the set up. You cant snitch and make it as a cop. No way.

Its pretty weedy. No one can keep thrir job and call a weed a weed.

Is the current system essentially fair and good, is our policing system basicalky just cept for a few bad apples?

Where you stand depends on your zip code

Attitude, empathy and compassion make a world of difference.

Don’t piss into the wind and don’t do stuff that attracts cops. duh

[outtamojo]

sleeping in one’s own home shouldn’t get one killed, but it does.
Storming a gov building carrying arms should attract cops yes, but nobody got killed from that group.

[scaredyclassic]

[quote=Hobie]Don’t piss into the wind and don’t do stuff that attracts cops. duh[/quote]

Being black definitely arouses suspicion. A fully masked society would at least cut down on bad stops.

Best course of action is to be born not black to family of good means. Duh.

[ltsddd]

[quote=Hobie]Don’t piss into the wind and don’t do stuff that attracts cops. duh[/quote]

Yeah. Like while sitting at a Starbucks shop while black. duh

[scaredyclassic]

Anyone who still insists on being black in this society is just bring hardheaded and stubborn. They judt need to get with the program and be white.

There are channels in the PD for officers to report other officers. You and I are not privy to how often that channel is used for privacy reasons.

But I can imagine that the police union is a lot like the teachers union, meaning it is difficult to get a union member removed.

If a police dept has a bad apple, I don’t we can assume it is because his fellow officers didn’t report the bad apple. As one of my friend officers said recently, nobody hates a bad officer more than a good officer. Nobody.

[outtamojo]

Be that as it may or however things are done or under what conditions the time for excuses is OVER.

If there are as many good cops as you say then it would be an easy matter to allow into their next contract more oversight and easier removal of bad cops.
Blaming Unions is always the route of the lazy and incompetent.

Most unions operate on the basis of a contract that must be ratified by majority vote of its members so if oversight and ways to remove bad cops dont make it into the contract that would indicate that cops not interested in policing their own are the majority.

So a good cop that say he/ she hates bad cops but not doing anything or allowing the change that would remove the bad cop is just the ultimate in hypocrisy.
