Axl is a cac who had a cac moment (they all do :yeshrug:), but generally speaking he's been decidedly pretty non racial since then (tried to tour with NWA, got Ice T on tour, hired two black backup singers etc.). Hetfield has outright been a racist in not only words (check out that Spin magazine link and the Guardian interview - IT'S RIGHT OUT OF THE HORSE'S MOUTH :mindblown:) but in action - he had a black rock band kicked off the tour for what reason breh? You're playing obtuse out of denial of this cac's obvious distaste for our kind (or is it just my kind :mjpls: :sas2:?).

Of all things to lie about why would he choose to single out Hetfield, and call him a racist on top of that (cac metal and rock fans don't care about that)? On top of the other shyt that came out of Hetfield's mouth it's pretty obvious there's something going on, and where there's smoke there's fire.



^Excerpt from the Guardian interview

I'm not saying you're wrong about Hetfield.

You should have links to these interviews though.

I remember as a kid seeing Axle with NWA hats and being friends with Ice-T, but at the same time would not slander Hetfield after the incident where the man almost burned to death. Only to come back from the incident to sing a week later when Axle couldn't pick up the slack because of a tickle in his throat.

If he did say that shyt, then you're right. That was a Misfits shirt so you may be right. At the same time, you need to provide links from these interviews.

The links were already in my first post at the bottom. The SPIN magazine interview is an actual scan provided by Spin themselves through Google.

Hetfield's quote is at the bottom:

Metallica: 'War has its purpose' – a classic interview from the vaults

Hetfield's quotes are at the bottom left of page 45:

I hope he's evolved since then.

Well there's this:



:jbhmm: I'm not sure if his racism is what he's referring to in this video, but he talks about "adopting things from his parents".


Well, his father wasn't around and his mother was a former singer who died of cancer because she was a Christian Scientisf. So I'm not sure what he could adopt.

^Excerpt from the Guardian interview

:ohhh: The lyrics from There Goes The Neighborhood just played in my head reading that Hetfield quote

"Don't they know rock's just for whites? / Don't they know the rules? / Those ******s are too hardcore / This shyt ain't cool." :damn:

I want to give you a dap but the interview doesn't back up your point.

In the video he says he's become ashamed of things he adopted from his parents, which may have included racism (refer back to the "knife designed to kill a black man" quote in the SPIN article). His father was a redneck truck driver from Nebraska (again per the SPIN article). You were hoping that he evolved in some way since those times, and I posited a video presenting such a possibility, vague/ambiguous as it might be. Some racist cacs become decent human beings along the way, and I was saying maybe based on that video Hetfield has (he probably hasn't though).

No offense, but why do I need to spell these basic things out to you?

You don't. I'm just a biased fan who hopes he's evolved because that clip was definitely from the early days. And they were super young.

Maybe therapy helped during rehab.
