T.I. ARRESTED IN ATL on weapons charges

Saturday, October 13, 2007

T.I. in Cali earlier this week. (Splash News)

Clifford Harris aka T.I was arrested and jailed just hours before he was to receive the award for Album of the Year and perform at the BET Awards on Saturday.

According to various reports, Harris, 27, was charged with two felonies — possession of three unregistered machine guns and two silencers, and possession of firearms by a convicted felon. The ATF executed a search warrant at his home, and according to Atlanta’s FOX 5 News, T.I., remains in custody.

Hassan Musaddiq, a cameraman for the Atlanta public access hip-hop show “Severe Entertainment,” said he was in the Walgreens parking lot and witnessed the arrest. He was there to pick up a video camera for red carpet interviews.

“I saw the ATF come out of nowhere,” Musaddiq said. “They had them all on the ground. At first, I didn’t even realize it was T.I. It was crazy. There was an unmarked black van and then about 10 squad cars came in.”

Mussaddiq says he saw ATF officers take T.I., his longtime girlfriend Tameka “Tiny” Cottle and rappers Mac Boney and Young Dro, who record for T.I.’s Grand Hustle record label into custody as well.

I really think that T.i is going to jail for a very long time because so far hes not entitled to a bond and we all know he has the money for it so thats not a good sign even O.J. Simpson got a bond of only 1,200 dollars, but being the charmer that T.I is, he prolly will be let out early somewhere in his jail time for example if he has to do 5 years he will probably do only 2 but who knows right?

I like T.I., but stupid is stupid, ok? IMO, Tiny is equally stupid. How many woman are locked up behind the stupid decisions that some of their boyfriends make? All folks can do is sit back and talk about how Tiny is a “ride or die” chick? Excuse me, but the last time I checked, children NEED their parents. If 1 parent is busy trying to live by the “code” of the streets, the other parent at least needs to have better sense. There’s nothing wrong with standing by your man, but stand by your man is he’s wrongfully accused. You can’t stand by a man that’s wrong from jump.

There’s nothing terrible about wanting to protect your family, but there IS a legal way to have a gun in your house. Get a license and get your weapons registered. It’s that simple. This mess could’ve been avoided.

Somebody posted that in the New Jack City post talking about Walgreens. Talking about they let Dro go and searched his College Point home. So I had to got to Hot 107.9 and the fox station link said it was at his house not Walgreen’s. Since I don’t post things that’s not relevant in other topics I’ll say it here….Where in the world is College Point? Is half the property in College Park and the other half in East Point? I mean I’m just saying! LOL.

When I saw that interview I almost threw up. He hurt the stop snitching movement in the end he sounded like he was working for the police. Stop snitching was never about witness like someone’s Grandmother that sees a crime, but rats that make deals to lower their time.

This is so funny because when he was on Punked he was so scared of the police. He had stated that he was on probation for like 5 years or something and he wasnt gonna get in any trouble. So I really hope he had nothing to do with this. Didnt he learn anything from Vick. When they wanna take you down, they will do all they can to take everything you have worked hard for. TI? I just dont know what to say….and for Tiny, you need to be smarter. You are a mother of small children and you are involving yourself in something that can get your children taken away from you. Not a good look. They both need to wake up and think about their kids first.

That’s because you have been taught not to. It’s sad that it is that way in Black America. In white America it’s not the same even on TV white criminals are not bashed as much as black ones are. Ask yourself why is Bonds given such a hard time but not Jason Giambi or what happened with the NBA ref scandal. Or why was it not widely reported that AI help save 2 women in a car accident. You would be amazed at the stories I could tell of criminals with morals.

And the media doesn’t have issues? Yeah sure. I bet if he had been illegally fighting gold fish it would have been the top story on CNN no matter what our dear President was doing

Samaritan Iverson aids crash victims

Nuggets guard, friends drove past Virginia accident

By Aaron J. Lopez, Rocky Mountain News

October 2, 2007

Along a busy highway in southeastern Virginia, Nuggets guard Allen Iverson delivered an assist that never will be included in his impressive NBA stat line.

Imagine the surprise of two women as Iverson crouched down in the median to find out if they were injured when their car flipped over along Interstate 64 near Hampton, Va.

“I remember looking in there and asking them, ‘Are you sure you’re all right? Is anything broken or anything like that?’ ” Iverson said Monday. “One of them looked up and said, ‘Oh, my God, are you Allen Iverson?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, but don’t worry about that. We’re trying to get you all out and make sure you’re all right.’ ”

An eight-time All-Star and one of the league’s most recognizable - and sometimes polarizing - players, Iverson has received plenty of negative publicity during his 11 NBA seasons.
He hardly was thinking about his image when he and a group of friends approached the accident on that August night.

In addition to being upside down, the car was smoking. Iverson told his friend who was driving to slow down so they could see if anyone was in the car.

“It didn’t look good,” Iverson said. “I looked and seen them upside down. I said, ‘Pull over. We got to see if those people are all right.’ It was the right thing to do.”

The police and paramedics soon arrived and Iverson and his traveling party continued down the road. Later that night, they stopped at the hospital to check on the women.

Iverson said he has not heard from the women since, but another woman who knew about the accident wrote a letter to the Philadelphia Daily News to commend Iverson for being a good Samaritan.

“We, the public, seem to hear only the negative stories, but never the small acts of kindness he performs,” wrote April Snoparsky, of Boston. “This story reaffirms my belief that just because he’s ’street’ doesn’t mean he isn’t one of the good guys.”

Do rappers live in America or in some third world nation? What is the reason for all these weapons? Blacks will always a bad rep in this country as well as others. T.I has money, fame amongst other things. What is the need to buy these weapons? What a UTTER moron. He will do hard time, trust me. He is not going to get away with this especially in the eyes of laws.

Remember folks there are something called RULES AND REGULATIONS!

‘The guns were not registered on the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record as required by law, and the witness — who was worked as a bodyguard for Harris since July — told authorities he was purchasing them for Harris, and had bought about nine guns for him previously, the statement said.’

and children, this is what you call a top grade snitch.

What is a GHETTO CRIME? A crime is a crime. But just because a Black person commits it makes it GHETTO? And as long as a Black person making money or has mad talent we claim them to the fullest but soon as they get in trouble we throwing them to the side like oh they do not represent us, I do not understand that. But whatever anyway T.I has no one to blame but himself. Hopefully he will learn from this if he ever gets a chance to get out.

Stop Snitching”? How about “Stop doing dumb ass shit so people won’t snitch on you”? Moreover, if Tiny was any kind of woman she would have tried to stop him from jeopardizing their family and his career and if he wanted to continue with his stupidity then she should have moved her and her kids on. This is not only affecting them but thier children and if a ride or die chick means leaving your babies and putting them second in order to support nonsense then I know I will never be one!

Sadly this is another situation of a dumb ass person not knowing what to do with their money.

If I am not mistaking it is legal to carry a registered weapon in ATL right? So if he’s paranoid cause of what happen to his friend then why didnt he just allow someone in his crew who is not a FELON carry a loaded weapon to protect him? What a complete waste of time and money…………. trying to floss some ARMY shit. Silencers? Are you serious? Who the fuck you planning on killing silently..no one so stop fucking lying.

Dude get positive and leave the paranoia to the skitzos.. His dumb ass needs to spend some time in jail just to think about this stupid shit. Nigga donate the money to charity, build schools.. cant you find other positive ways to floss yo dough?

I really like T.I. and he definitely has talent (acting and rapping) However, I didnot like his attitude on Hip Hop vs. America…pride comes before the fall ya;ll.. When will these guys learn you CANNOT trust everybody. Regardless of the situation he knows he is a felon he needs to be nowhere near any weapons, that was poor judgment on his part for real. This does sound kind of fishy but unfortunately I think T.I. going down for this. The sad part is T.I. is a smart dude, he reminds me of Tupac in alot of ways. Leave that street life alone when you make it out, the people, the lifestyle, all of it. Life is not a video. Lawd, I feel bad for Tiny she is ride or die for real…

I remember how “scared” he looked on ‘PUNK’D” when he was getting on the plane and they told him they found drugs. He didn’t think it was funny… at all… He should have seen that as a indicator of how easy it is to be set up by someone “close to you”! KEEP YOUR HEAD UP HOMIE!

I still don’t understand why rappers continue to get arrested for stupid things like carrying drugs or guns. Are they trying to prove their manhood? Are they paranoid? Do they still have one foot in street life and one outside? I just don’t get it. T.I seemed to have so much promise, it’s a shame if he ends up in jail over something so stupid. Especially considering he has 5 children.

I think these rappers need to learn how to leave some of their entourage behnind. If they’re not willing to change their ways and become men adn do something positive with their lives, then they need to be left right where are. Because once your selling millions of records and staring in movies, you shouldn’t need to be involved in criminal activity.

Hip-hop is getting more and more played out every day and rappers getting arrested every damn week is just the icing on the cake.

148.

PRISTINE

Sunday, October 14, 2007 /

i’m not surprised. T.I., like most rappers despite their large amounts of wealth can’t seem to shake their old lifestyles. . . or they can, but choose not to. I “would” say it’s sad that T.I., his girl, and 2 other members from his crew got arrested, but in reality it’s not- it’s just part of the game.

Luckily for T.I. though- posession of a firearm(s) by a convicted felon gets you 3 to 5, and “if” this is his 2nd major criminal offense in a 3-strike state like Georgia, then ol’ boy will be fine.
