minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink88•9 months agoThis implies there was ever a time cops weren’t violent pieces of shit. I’ve heard many stories of cops in the 80s regularly beating on people in my area. In fact, sociologists like to say cops were invented in America specifically make sure slaves stayed indentured to their owners.
minus-squareJack Riddlelinkfedilink67•9 months agoSure, but they weren’t as militarised back then. They were violent pieces of shit with sticks rather than machineguns.
minus-square@JusticeForPorygonlink26•9 months agoExactly, they beat the shit out of them because they couldn’t turn them to swiss cheese as easily. A revolver only has so many bullets before you have to stand there and load them back in.

This is literally the second verse: Now here’s a likkle truth, open up your eye While you’re checkin’ out the boom-bap, check the exercise Take the word overseer, like a sample Repeat it very quickly in a crew, for example Overseer, overseer, overseer, overseer Officer, officer, officer, officer Yeah, officer from overseer You need a little clarity? Check the similarity! The overseer rode around the plantation The officer is off, patrollin’ all the nation The overseer could stop you, “What you’re doing?” The officer will pull you over just when he’s pursuing The overseer had the right to get ill And if you fought back, the overseer had the right to kill The officer has the right to arrest And if you fight back they put a hole in your chest (Woop!) They both ride horses After 400 years, I’ve got no choices

Now here’s a likkle truth, open up your eye
While you’re checkin’ out the boom-bap, check the exercise
Take the word overseer, like a sample
Repeat it very quickly in a crew, for example
Overseer, overseer, overseer, overseer
Officer, officer, officer, officer
Yeah, officer from overseer
You need a little clarity? Check the similarity!
The overseer rode around the plantation
The officer is off, patrollin’ all the nation
The overseer could stop you, “What you’re doing?”
The officer will pull you over just when he’s pursuing
The overseer had the right to get ill
And if you fought back, the overseer had the right to kill
The officer has the right to arrest
And if you fight back they put a hole in your chest
(Woop!) They both ride horses
