| ROBOTROCK: Ian MacKaye meant "19 years of my time" as in the years he's LIVED (being white). Dude was 19 when he wrote that song. The song was NOT originally written to "critisize caucasians." It was just a "fuck you" to all the (majority) black kids in his school and where he lived that would give him shit JUST for that fact that he's white when he really never did SHIT. YOU need to "do your homework." minor threat page is over here: http://www.songmeanings.net/lyric.php?lid=42988 | |

| slayer is the absolute shit and taking this song and making it some huge racist claim is completely unfounded. he's makign the point that he's tired of having to feel guilt for something he in fact has never done. please forgive them for not wanting the burden of a bunch of hick ass lynch mobs fifty years ago | |

| By the way no matter what hitler said the term Aryan is from Persia/India and the swastika has been in indian history from eww! 1500bc dudes.....i am mixed race black/asian my father is an aryan (origins from persia) i live in England we don't seem to have the same problems with race here as you American guys do i always been into metal with no adverse reactions...its always been about the music slayer/maiden was one of my first joys...i admit you cannot blame the modern white american male for the sins of his ancestors the important thing is to recognise that terrible sh*t happened and not to ever do it again.If i recall the lead singer of slayer isn't even a white dude. einheit13 the problem is aryan is a persian word hitler nicked for his own agenda the problem with being pro colour is that you miss out on lifes diverse beauty if everyone was one colour we would still find sh*t to bitch about....all because of misconceptions. If i see a white shavenheaded bloke i shouldn't think immediatly he's trouble and walk to the other side of the street its the same with black dudes i shouldn't think oh he's going to steal my purse.. its very narrow minded thinking ...metal is an alternative type of music it should be used to bridge divides...to show how to be non-conformists broaden your horizons guys .... | |
