Earlier this week, a teen in Fresno, CA was arrested by Fresno police after a search of his family's house, which turned up a cache of guns and ammunition. What prompted the search? The day before, the teen had posted lyrics from an Eminem track called “I'm Back.”
In the track, Eminem raps, “I take seven kids from Columbine, stand ’em all in a line / Add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine / A MAC-11 and it oughtta solve the problem of mine / And that’s a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time / I’m just like Shady and just as crazy as the world was over this whole Y2K thing.”
But confusing the matter, in a press conference, the police mistook the teen's post for lyrics from Eminem's track “Rap God,” which simply use the lines, “I take seven kids from Columbine, stand ’em all in a line / Add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine.”
