For you idiot fucks who can't comprehend the context of the lyrics, the term "nigger" is used as a reference from the point of view of the police officers that the Offspring are ranting against. The LAPD view the minorities and lower-class white-trash as such, leading to the point of view from inside the minds of the officers. They are making a statement as though they are the police in a satirical fashion.
@TheReapersSon You say this like you get offended by the word yourself as well. So what if they WEREN'T using the word in reference to the cops point of view, if you dislike cops you probably already know that swearing isnt serious business, nevertheless the world needs to be desensitized to all cuss words especially "nigger" and "cunt" because those words still offend people, and people should realize that they make themselves look pathetic and unintelligent if they get offended over any word.
No, it's not the word that offends me. You are correct in your statement that no word should ever offend anyone. It is the idiocy of people arguing over something like a song that is supposed to wake people up to something important that really happened and the way humans conduct themselves towards one another regardless of social status or authority. That is what offends me.
Wow. I like how there are people who assume this is racist by taking one line completely out of context while ignoring every other word of the song.....
@johnnythesailorman It's more to make a point that the police are racist. The actual band probably isn't. Think about it, black (forgive the expression) commit roughly 10 percent of crimes, yet 30-50 percent of inmates are black. It's obvious someone's biased. Just my opinion though.
@YourDeathAtAllCost I thought that was obvious, i mean offspring are often sarcastic or/and take the point of view of someone else, like in bad habbit or cool to hate.
Americans are wusses, they think that trying to fight the government by using "rallies" and "petitions" are gonna do much. That's bullcrap, I'm sure a LOT more action will be done if someone were to pop a cap in the crooked bastards...
Not trying to get on the watchlist.. but it's the truth. If someone had the courage to Revolt, the country might be saved. If not... I say hit the RESET button.
A great song from the BEST Offspring album from back in the day when they were a good band and not the sad bunch of characters putting out MTV crap like they are now.
yes he does. this song is supposed to define corrupt cops and their hypocritical ways. And as you can probably gather from the name of the song, it focuses on the stereotypical "bad" cops working in L.A. After all that is where this great band came from.
ahaha, yeah im from west hollywood and the cops ther get pretty nasty; i can only imagine wht their like down in inglewood and the rest of south central. the thing is tho, he might be saying it sarcasticly but some people could use this song to empower their hate-driven racial riots. offspring might think their dissin the LAPD but in reality their public appologies are all for positive-publicity, and the actual officers commiting these crimes probly laugh at all this.
@troutshooter yup. but when this song was made was back in the late 80's. thats over 20 years ago. Its a different department from those days. a very different department. Those guys he is singing about are all probably retired or about to retire
@Retro90Flashback Yes - "Beat all the niggers, beat whoever you see, don't need a reason, LAPD". Followed by "Beat all the white trash (etc)". It's not supposed to be funny.
@2009OffspringFan theyre two seperate genres of music you fuckin moron. with an alias of "offspringfan" and not "motorheadfan" im pretty sure its obvious who youre going to choose of the two. lemmy is a genius in his own sense and im sure you'll find a LOT more true motorhead followers than you will offspring followers.
@2009OffspringFan yeah, because of a bunch of punk dipshits will choose Motorhead, a classic Metal band, over a punk band. "2009 offspring fan" ... I'm not even gonna start, what a loser. You're so desperate for attention aren't you. fuckin lowlife. I'm sure offspring had songs about people like you.... I'm sure of it. douchebag
@2009OffspringFan there is no possible comparison between those two mate. motorhead is a totally different band from offspring they have nothing to do with each other but both kick ass
look when this came out and hes talking about rodney king you moron, it was on the news the kid with the water gun. wtf is wrong with you to say this is racist you stupid moron.
He's not racist. That beat the ___ whatever, he's singing from the perspective of the LAPD! Like the policeman is going beat all the blah blah, beat whoever you see, don't need no reason... LAPD!!! He's making a point, not a racial remark. plus, this album came out way back during the LA riots...
The first chorus is as follows: CHORUS Beat all the niggers Beat whoever you see Don't need a reason (We're) L.A.P.D. The second like this: Beat all the white trash Beat whoever you see Don't need a reason (We're) L.A.P.D. Dexter isn't a racist.
i like all new and old stuff by the offspring its all gd splinter is a bit pants, tho rise fall rage and grace takes some getting used to but its good music at the end of the day
everytime a pregnant woman buys then listens to a Jonas Brothers CD....a baby with downs syndrome is born....no i cant prove my theory but you cant disprove it either...scary huh so just listen to real music to be safe
Amazing song... and to quote a review of this album: 'angry, incisive lyrics; fast-driving rhythms; -and dare one say it- melodic chord progressions. It's easy to hear why Ignition was an underground hit and why the Offspring's later records, while somewhat diluted, have been so successful'.
Bought this album when I was 13 on cassette tape. Still have it, still listen to it before I go surfing. lol. Brings me back to good times in life...wide leg jeans, chain wallets, manic panic hair dye...lol...Puts a smile on my face just thinking about it.
