Songs with lyrics . which would be considered bigoted / hatefully / insensitive if released today

Bob Dylan drops a hard N in Hurricane. If a white guy other than Eminem did that these days there would likely be a problem, especially because he calls him a "crazy ..."

Brown Sugar?

Black Betty

Brown Sugar is about raw heroin and Black Betty is about a whip.

In "Shattered" I believe Jagger says "don't mind the fagg#ts".

If it worked then, it'll work now. The hell with worrying about offending people. Let them get offended. Look at the rappers today. You think they give a sh!t about political correctness or offending people? No. White people have turned into complete pansies in the last twenty years. Say what you think, and let others sort it out.

Meanwhile Blacks and their Jew producers crank out hundreds of songs a year talking about killing crackas!

American Redneck Origin

Another possible contributing source of the term redneck comes from The West Virginia Coal Miners March or the Battle of Blair Mountain when coal miners wore red bandanas around their necks to identify themselves as seeking the opportunity to unionize.

Another contributing theory derives the term from such individuals having a red neck caused by working outdoors in the sunlight over the course of their lifetime. The effect of decades of direct sunlight on the exposed skin of the back of the neck not only reddens fair skin, but renders it leathery and tough, and typically very wrinkled and spotted by late middle age. Similarly, some historians claim that the term redneck originated in 17th century Virginia, because fair-skinned unfree labourers(aka white slaves) were sunburnt while tending plantation crops.

Another popular etymology is that the term was originally used by African Americans as a pejorative for white people in general, in the same manner that peckerwood and ofay were coined by blacks.

It is clear that by the post-Reconstruction era (after the departure of Federal troops from the American South in 1874-1878), the term had worked its way into popular usage. Several blackface minstrel shows used the word in a derogatory manner, comparing slave life over that of the poor rural whites. This may have much to do with the social, political and economic struggle between Populists, the Redeemers and Republican Carpetbaggers of the post-Civil War South and Appalachia, where the new middle class of the South (professionals, bankers, industrialists) displaced the pre-war planter class as the leaders of the Southern states. The Populist movement, with its message of economic equality, represented a threat to the status quo. The use of a derogative term, such as redneck to belittle the working class, would have assisted in the gradual disenfranchisement of most of the Southern lower class, both black and white, which occurred by 1910.

Guns n' Roses - One in a Million (was controversial when released in 1988). Not sure what Obama would say about it if it came out today.

Arlo Guthrie says two people singing a bar of "Alice's Restaurant Massacree" would be branded as "f*ggots" and successfully evade military service.

No way would a progressive artist use that expression nowadays. It won't even evade the LRC filth filter-but 40 years ago, it was played on every hippie radio station every Thanksgiving. Funny how things change.

You must be retarded if you think there's anything offensive about his use of "the N word" in that song. And yes I was being purposefully, and ironically, offensive in calling you retarded. If you'd listened to the song you'd realize it's one of the most powerfully anti-racist songs in modern rock music.
