Uh, what the hell does a person need with machine guns if they’re not taking part in a revolution or avenging the death of their family by Columbian drug lords or rescuing their daughter from ruthless mercenaries? Seriously, what is so serious in this bitch’s life that he needs to own machine guns? Rapper T.I. was arrested by the ATF in Atlanta yesterday on multiple weapons charges. He tried to have a bodyguard pick up some machines guns with silencers.
Authorities say the bodyguard admitted to purchasing about nine firearms for T.I. in the past and about 17 firearms for other people in the musician’s posse on previous occasions. The bodyguard claims the rapper gave him cash to purchase the guns, because T.I., as a convicted felon, was not able to legally buy firearms. The bodyguard was arrested last week trying to buy several guns. After his arrest, the bodyguard agreed to cooperate with authorities– that cooperation led to today’s arrest.
You might recognize T.I. (aka Clifford Harris) as the rapper who has done guest shots on tracks by Justin Timberlake and Britney. T.I. was scheduled to perform at last night’s BET hip-hop awards last night but, seeing as he was still in custody at the time, I don’t think he made it. But he did win some awards!
