Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain, The deputy grabbed his gun And in the fight that followed He laid that deputy down.
Guthrie's song should be subtitled, "Commemoration of a Cop Killer." No one has to be a cop -- and in any case the major cause of cop fatalities is their own reckless driving, not people with guns -- but people are born black, i.e., potential Death Squad victims.
10 fewer stupid squeals per year about that "Cop Killer" song would be more evidence of progress against racism than 10,000 "blacks" acting as Secretary for Devastation in the Third World."
