Talk:Fuck tha Police

message: Back in the 90's, a friend of mine had a version of this song (I assume a remix done by NWA) that was different than the version on the album. This version ended with what sounded like somebody swearing profusely in Spanish. Anybody know what version this is, and/or on what album it came from? Was hoping that the Wikipedia article might mention it, but doesn't. 70.253.67.214 (talk) 05:19, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Answering my own question :) The name of the song is called Sa Prize (Part 2) and is on their 'efil4zaggin' album. So it's not actually a remix, but a sequel.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.253.67.214 (talk) 09:12, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

message: I realize it was quite a few years ago, but if this sort of thing happened today wouldn't everyone just laugh at them? Like, "You were harrassing people on the street with a paintball gun and the police stopped you, and you're surprised? You're upset? That's somehow unjust?"

message: 'crass' means 'grossly stupid', and i don't think that that's what's intended when quoting those lyrics. it should be something like 'extreme', etc.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.13.29 (talk) 20:24, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Why is the word "nigga'" censored?  If we're adult enough to include the word "Fuck" in the title and repeatedly in the body of a work of academia, why not "nigga" or "nigger", especially in a quote?
That's a good question. Wikifixer1990 (talk) 17:39, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

message: I have heard this song used very often in Libertarian seminars and gatherings. it seems to be a big thing for some Libertarians esp. black Libertarians. Therefore Ive added the libertarian sidebar.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.174.97.34 (talk) 16:36, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Libertarianism 

message: Whoever made up the themes section has an axe to grind. Not only do the NWA never even mention white crime in Fuck tha Police, the song is about police brutality and racial profiling! Yet the author of "Themes" has it that the song is about white crime. To try and source this, the author uses two books, one from 1962 (twenty-six years before this song was released), and 1975 (eleven years before the song was released). Finally, as proof that the author is merely grinding an axe, we have this little treasure: "The stereotype of all blacks being criminals now seems to be completely foolish." Ice Cube only went so far into stereotypes when he rapped about police searching his "looking for the product, thinking ever nigga is selling narcotics". There is not a lyric about "all blacks being criminals". This is original research and thoughts by the author of Themes.
Fuck tha Police is about Police Brutality! About persecution! About the struggles of urban black youths! It has nothing to do with white people beyond racist white police officers. It never went into the struggles of all black people.
I'm deleting it. It's a complete farce, and it is clearly meant to incite. Wikifixer1990 (talk) 17:32, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

message: If anyone's watching this page, the song is intermittently—but in pretty equal numbers—refered to as both Fuck tha Police and Fuck da Police.Whichever is true, we shold be consistent. If they're somehow both true—e.g. a misprint in creation or registration—then we should have it as an alternative name and an explanatory footnote.  ——Serial 18:07, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
