The owner of a Smithfield’s Chicken ’n Bar-B-Q restaurant in Garner has apologized for the way his employees treated Raleigh Police Department officers. The apology came after a post on Facebook was spread far and wide by officers who said the store’s employees sang NWA’s song “F--- The Police” as they ate. The post, written on the Raleigh Police Protective Association’s page, thanked the restaurant for its “class and professionalism as you sang ‘F- the police’ as my brothers at Raleigh Police Department attempted to eat at your restaurant. The manager sang along as well. Do you really feel that was appropriate?” The post went up at 8:33 p.m. on Friday. Within three hours, David Harris, the store’s owner, posted an apology. He promised to investigate and “terminate anyone employed that doesn’t share our RESPECT of ALL law enforcement.” In an interview Saturday, Raleigh Police Protective Association President Matthew Cooper, who shared the Facebook post, said, “This is something that, unfortunately, officers have to deal with now on a regular basis.” Cooper said there were a couple of officers in the restaurant when employees started to sing the song from the late 1980s, though he would not give the exact number. He said the police association spoke with Harris and accepted the store owner’s apology for Friday’s incident. Harris, in a Facebook post, said, “Willie McKennies is my partner and has been the General Manager since we the store opened over 17 years ago. We have had a long standing relationship with Raleigh Police Department,” Harris wrote. “We respect law enforcement, we have called upon them in the past for assistance, we take utmost seriousness of this issue.” The police association’s page thanked Harris for his, “quick and heartfelt response to this matter. We truly believe that the actions of these employees do not share your values,” the poster said.

lyrics: Right about now, N.W.A. court is in full effect Judge Dre presiding In the case of N.W.A. vs. the Police Department Prosecuting attorneys are MC Ren, Ice Cube And Eazy-motherf***ing-E Order, order, order Ice Cube, take the motherf***ing stand Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth And nothing but the truth so help your black ***? You goddamn right! Well won't you tell everybody what the f*** you gotta say? F*** the police coming straight from the underground A young n***a got it bad cause I'm brown And not the other color so police think They have the authority to kill a minority F*** that s***, cause I ain't the one For a punk motherf***er with a badge and a gun To be beating on, and thrown in jail We can go toe to toe in the middle of a cell F***ing with me cause I'm a teenager With a little bit of gold and a pager Searching my car, looking for the product Thinking every n***a is selling narcotics You'd rather see, me in the pen Than me and Lorenzo rolling in a Benz-o Beat a police out of shape And when I'm finished, bring the yellow tape To tape off the scene of the slaughter Still getting swoll off bread and water I don't know if they f*** or what Search a n***a down, and grabbing his n*** And on the other hand, without a gun they can't get none But don't let it be a black and a white one Cause they'll slam ya down to the street top Black police showing out for the white cop Ice Cube will swarm On any motherf***er in a blue uniform Just cause I'm from the CPT Punk police are afraid of me, huh A young n***a on the warpath And when I'm finished, it's gonna be a bloodbath Of cops, dying in L.A Yo Dre, I got something to say F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police Pull your god damn *** over right now Aww s***, now what the f*** you pullin me over for? Cause I feel like it! Just sit your *** on the curb and shut the f*** up Man, f*** this s*** Aight, smart***, I'm taking your black *** to jail! MC Ren, will you please give your testimony To the jury about this f***ed up incident? F*** the police and Ren said it with authority Because the n***as on the street is a majority A gang is with whoever I'm stepping And the motherf***ing weapon is kept in A stash box, for the so-called law Wishing Ren was a n***a that they never saw Lights start flashing behind me But they're scared of a n***a so they mace me to blind me But that s*** don't work, I just laugh Because it gives them a hint not to step in my path For police, I'm saying, "F*** you punk!" Reading my rights and s***, it's all junk Pulling out a silly club, so you stand With a fake-*** badge and a gun in your hand But take off the gun so you can see what's up And we'll go at it punk, and I'ma f*** you up! Make you think I'mma kick your *** But drop your gat, and Ren's gonna blast I'm sneaky as f*** when it comes to crime But I'ma smoke them now and not next time Smoke any motherf***er that sweats me Or any ***hole that threatens me I'm a sniper with a hell of a scope Taking out a cop or two, they can't cope with me The motherf***ing villain that's mad With potential, to get bad as f*** So I'ma turn it around Put in my clip, yo, and this is the sound {*BOOM, BOOM*} Yeah, something like that But it all depends on the size of the gat Taking out a police would make my day But a n***a like Ren don't give a f*** to say F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police Yo man, what you need? Police, open out! Aww s*** We have a warrant for Eazy-E's arrest Get down and put your hands up where I can see 'em (Move motherf***er, move now!) What the f*** did I do, man what did I do? Just shut the f*** up And get your motherf***ing *** on the floor (You heard the man, shut the f*** up!) But I didn't do s*** Man just shut the f*** up! Eazy-E, won't you step up to the stand And tell the jury how you feel about this bulls***? I'm tired of the motherf***ing jacking Sweating my gang, while I'm chilling in the shack, and Shining the light in my face, and for what? Maybe it's because I kick so much butt I kick *** -- or maybe cause I blast On a stupid-*** n***a when I'm playing with the trigger Of an Uzi or an AK Cause the police always got something stupid to say They put out my picture with silence Cause my identity by itself causes violence The E with the criminal behavior Yeah, I'm a gangsta, but still I got flavor Without a gun and a badge, what do ya got? A sucker in a uniform waiting to get shot By me, or another n***a And with a gat it don't matter if he's smaller or bigger (MC Ren: Size don't mean s***, he's from the old school fool) And as you all know, E's here to rule Whenever I'm rolling, keep looking in the mirror And ears on cue, yo, so I can hear a Dumb motherf***er with a gun And if I'm rolling off the 8, he'll be the one That I take out, and then get away While I'm driving off laughing this is what I'll say F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police The verdict The jury has found you guilty of being a redneck White bread, chickens*** motherf***er But wait, that's a lie! That's a god damn lie! Get him out of here! Get him the f*** out my face! I want justice! Out, right now! F*** you, you black motherf***ers! F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police F*** Tha Police Source: Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC
