You guys his bond was 3MIL. He only had to pay 10% of that to get out, which is $300K.

FYI: You are responsble for the full amount of the bail.Those who are not able to come up with the funds usually acquire the services of a bailbondsman who charges them 10% - 20 % of the fee(usually non-refundable) in return for him/her guaranteeing the bond:

I made a post earlier that TI’s bond amounted to cruel and unusual punishment(see below). I am still not convinced that were it not TI the bond would have been this excessive. Another thing not much mentioned - this case is reported as a sting by the Feds. Not too aware of the roles of the participants.

The Eighth Amendment to the U. S. Constitution requires that bail not be excessive. This means that bail should not be used to raise money for the government or to punish a person for being suspected of committing a crime. The purpose of bail is to give an arrested person her freedom until she is convicted of a crime, and the amount of bail must be no more than is reasonably necessary to keep her from fleeing before a case is over.

Some judges set a high bail in particular types of cases (such as those involving drug sales or rape) to keep a suspect in jail until the trial is over. Although bail set for this purpose — called preventative detention — is thought by some to violate the Constitution, this practice has continued in many courts.

YOOOO…Im soo glad he is out but yo 3 millon
but im glad as shiit that mah baby got out!

T.I. iS FREE

I don’t like to see anyone go to prison. Jail is not a wonderful place to be. However, if he did what the press is reporting then he better have damn good lawyers T.I. or he’s going away for a long time.

Why in the world would any rich black man like T.I. want to be caught in that kind of mess?! Perhaps, his upbring or the people he chose as friends helped to ruin his future. Black people with money or without need to chose better friends and lifestyles! Because the thug life is not for everyone!

OMG…#43 I can’t even remember what the hell I was gonna type!!! I’m too busy LMFAO at your comment…maybe it was her son’s van and she just had to borrow it!!! LOL!!!

Anyways, I think we have all established TI made some BEYOND fycked up choices as far as this situation is concerned…BUT I am glad he is out. TI has children and this whole incident has to be “devastating” to them. Its not their fault that Daddy did something stupid…and he OWES them the right to ask as many questions, cry as many tears, and get as many hugs or kisses from their father right now.

If we are dissappointed in TI just imagine how his Momma, Grandmother and his children feel…this is a very emotional time for them. I just think he needs to prepare them for the possibility that he could spend 10 years in jail…they need him right now and vice versa.

Don’t get it twisted what he did was dead-ass wrong…however, many of us are forgetting he is just a human and he can succumb to bullshyt just like anyone else.

We talking about I can’t believe he did this…or I can’t believe he did that…why? If you wouldn’t put shyt pass Ray-Ray down the street…what makes TI so different? Just because he is your favorite rapper? Please…c’mon now. A human is a human…end of story.

I believe that through this all T.I. will rise….This is just another obstacle that he has to go through…and HE WILL go right through it and come out on top. T.I.’s future is so bright that I have to wear shades. This incident will only take him to higher level. And so it is.

T.I. 4 EVER…….

I just have one question for him..was it worth it?

Wow my baby ballin, he put up 2.2 million in hard cold cash, damn, i wanna have his baby.

I am glad he is out of jail because i dont want those gay prisoners checking out my babys body in the showers.

They in atlanta so you know 98% of those prisoners are gay as hell.

YEAHHHHH i am soo HAPPY for T.I. glad he is at home with his children & his gurl! wish them the best hopeful his dream team can get him off!!… T.I. PLEASE do everything you were told to do so you can get thru this!…

T.I. you and TIP, better record a lot of tracks before y’all asses go away for a while.

My question is: why is one of the stipulations of him leaving his home is medical appointments? Is T.I. sick or something?

I can see if they said he can only leave home for legal meetings, grocery shopping by why medical appointments? Hmmmmmm

OMG, all this “if he were white” shyt is ridiculous…he’s a f*ckin FELON!!!!

He shouldn’t have been caught up in that bullshyt anyway…he knew the rules…can’t point the blame on anyone but the one u see when u look n the mirror.

Why is he asking everyone how they feel? lpl

I meant lol, ofcourse they feel happy, their asses is being released.

@12 - word. The weed carriers all mugging for these cameras like this is the red carpet. It ain’t.

Now, standing by for the photo of Tip at some club or a party, breaking his conditions of bail.

Hey, Concrete Loop! Why can’t I get an account on here? I signed up like 2 years ago and cannot remember the e-mail address I used. I’d like to put a hip pic too. Anywho, I think that TI mess is a total setup.

I’m sure Louis Vuitton corporate paid the bail, for all TI’s loyal promotion.
SIKE.

T.I. had to have 2 million in cash. They were cashier checks. Not 10%. He was in the Atlanta Federal Pen. They put him in federal custody. Typically they will keep you in county or city jail until after trial. He may really want to make that circle of folk so small til it’s just his Mom,Tiny,lawyers. Remember also there are two sides to every case. He has great representation as far as his legal team is concerned.

Dear T.I., governement name Clifford Harris, LOL. I cant laugh to loud my government name is ghetto fabolous…hahaha but any who…..if the chargers are false.. i hope i have learned or lesson with dealing with the wrong people….but if that is exactly true……negro!!!!!!!!!! Why??????????? You say you a seven time felony(LOL) why assoicate yourself with that???
Now. one question where these guns going to props for the show??(LOL)
IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

White America is NOT PLAYING!!!!!!!!!! This Negro is GOING UNDER THE JAIL, 3 Mil for Bail? Dream Team or not him and Mike Vick will be Cellmates!!!!!! I smell a reality show in the WORKS??? “JAIL MATES” (The Urban Version)

98) Good one
I love reality shows!!!!

GLAD 2 HEAR @LEAST HE ‘S @ HOME.

To all y’all who think TI is being MISTREATED AS A BLACK MAN, open your eyes!! He was busted with enough weapons to help support the WAR in this house AND the CAR he was driving from the awards show…enough to blow you, me and the Titanic the hell outta the water!

TI needs to be held responsible for this crap!! The best punishment is JAIL TIME!! LOCK HIM THE HELL UP! No pitty over here cuz someone would have gotten those bullets…y’all need to be thanking God is ain’t you!

And by the way, THE MAN didn’t tell him to have all them guns!! get off that old horse and find a new ride, idiots!!]]]

THANK GOD FOR SOME SENSIBLE PPL ON THIS BLOG. THE REST OF Y’ALL ARE SOME DUMBASS NEGROES WHO MAKE ME UPSET TO BE IDENTIFIED AS THE SAME RACE AS YOU! TI/TIP IS A DAMN ASS AND HE DESERVES TO GO TO JAIL! WHY DIDN’T HE THINK ABOUT HIS KIDS? OH I’M SORRY HE WAS TOO BUSY TRYING TO UP THE STATISTIC OF BLACK KIDS WITH FATHERS IN JAIL. WHAT A SELFISH ASSHOLE! HIS CHILDREN ARE THE ONES WHO LOSE IN THIS SITUATION! WHAT WAS HE NEEDING WITH NOT ONE, NOT TWO BUT THREE GUNS? IS HE DUMB ENOUGH TO THINK HE CAN FIRE ALL THREE BY HIMSELF? SUPPOSE HIS KIDS FOUND A GUN AND HURT THEMSELVES? OR BETTER YET SUPPOSE THE DRAMA FOR GETTING THE GUNS CAUSED THE DEATH OF HIS SON? DID HE THINK ABOUT THAT? HOW CAN YOU NEGROES SIT THERE AND TYPE THAT SHIT ABOUT IT BEING BECAUSE HE’S BLACK? UM HE’S ALREADY A DAMN FELON, AND HE AINT THAT DUMB! OH HE IS MY BAD! I’M ALL FOR OPINIONS BUT THE MAJORITY OF Y’ALL HAVE SOME CRISPY NOODLES UPSTAIRS MAN! THINK ABOUT THE KIDS!!!!

LMAO @ # 84 ON THE 2ND & 3RD LINES

@ 7
His Bail is set high #1 because Tip’s lawyers (((on his behalf proposed))) (keyword: proposed not the judge) the $3 Mil plus extra conditions to keep him outta of jail. The judge is left in his discretion (behind the scenes) to look the other way. It happens in all high profile cases I’m certain. Typically, had it been some Joe Schmoe it would have been a longshot for him to get outta jail, where especially having 7 convictions from a past like Tip’s). So, don’t ever think for a moment celebrity doesn’t holdup in this case because it does. Money speaks volumes!!! and; #2 Tip is nowhere near broke and will never be broke…Tip said to his lawyers from day 1 “whatever it takes get me out” and “I don’t care how much it is do your job” and it worked $3 Mil did the job not his lawyers.

@22
I’m curious how you know the case has holes??? Anyway you slice it the man still had guns in his felon(y) possession. He got caught. So how are there holes? He stands to be put away for a min. What don’t the public know - hell that’s what I wanna know?

@87
LMAO

@91
Yep. I’m waiting on that next photo op with him and Tiny buggin out at some club. Hell somehow I think this case is going to disappear down the line, but then again I could be wrong this is a strange case for a man like him to have millions…but then again I look at Michael Vick

This is the time to be close to family, and put God even closer read that word daily and meditate and he will come through for real, he is the only one who can get you through this keep the faith alive.

People act like gun crime doesn’t rip apart our communities. TI was buying a gun with a SILENCER people…. he wasn’t buying that for self defence, he was buying that to use on somebody so that somebody else’s mother and father, or child, wife or girlfriend will be grieving over a loved one.. TI didn’t get caught doing a noble crime, he got caught doing ignorant shit… shit that in the bigger picture leaves our community in a worse situation than it already is…

TI can’t love his children.. If he did he’d love them enough not to be doing bullshit that would possibly end up with him being taken away from them. When you love your children they come first, not ignorant street shit that risks not only your freedom, but risks their upbringing too.

In America yes, the legal system is unfairly balanced racially, but this is not a race issue. If you want to make a campaign against the problems in the legal system, don’t be complaining about cases like this. because TI deserves what he gets.

I carry a gun for protection (yes i have a NY state permit also) but damn when you buying silencers you up to no good…now dont get me wrong when i get some more change i want the occasional assualt rifle (sks, ar-15, ak-74) but thats just for fun…when you throw silencers in the mix aint nothing good goin to happen

Who f*cking cares what the bond would have been if he was white? That man, regardless of his race, had 7 felony convictions. OH YES, black people are treated more harshly? WELL THEN HOW LONG ARE YALL IDIOTS GOING TO KEEP FALLING FOR THIS BULLSHIT, WHEN YOU ALREADY KNOW THE CONSEQUENCES? Doesn’t that make you look even DUMBER? Let’s keep it real, if you already know the fire will burn your hand if you put it in it, WHY IN THE HELL would you put your hand in it? If you already know your black ass will be treated worse for certain situations, WHY IN THE HELL do you put yourself in THEM STUPID ASS SITUATIONS? Some situations are beyond our control (police brutality, hate crimes), but when it comes to situations that YOU CHOOSE to put yourself in, you get no sympathy.

He WILL be locked up and I won’t feel bad for him. People and those teens taking those idiots for heroes need to see there’s NOTHING glamorous about that kind of life, no matter how hard they are in videos. It’s so shameful coming from a grown man and FATHER!

WHO CARES? NEEEEEEEEXXXXXXXXXTTTTTTT!

i cant believe this blog! we cant stik together and WE WONT ,it is what it is cause u can be the bummiest nigga in the hood but the moment u start shining you get murdered or close to it and thats real talk…black folks hate to see other blacks do good, its a mind trick that was set up to divide us and its working.
mexicans jump the border and have the same attitude toward blacks as the other man and that amazes me cause they dont even belong in the country and truthfully dont have the right to anything they receive in america.
BLOGGERS…STOP DEPENDING ON GOD CAUSE HES NOT THERE!!!

you are so right #10

we as black folk do nothin but kill, rob, and hate each other, meanwhile the world looks at us as savage monkeys and laugh at us,we bringin our own image down!!!!
T.I, if you get through this, please,Please put that gangsta shit away!!!!!!!!

Good luck TIP

STOP SNITCHING

@108 what the fuck are you talking about and how is the lack of cohesion in communities even relevant to this TI post?? Are we supposed to sit back and let ignorant arseholes keep guns in the community..

Black people should stick together, but if TI’s doing bullshit are we supposed to support him in his fuckery too?

Sit your fucking arse down

first of all i would like to thank those of you who think T I is wrong because you`re absolutely right…..what part of “i`m a 7 times convicted felon“ didnt that fool understand? what? did he think buying guns with the criminal record he has was going to let him go free? yes, this is america and racism is still very much alive but what that idiot has done is putting himself in the mouth of the wolf( white racism) and right now i dont even think race will play any factor in his trial because he broke the law and needs to be punished accordingly
i`m sorry but having all those qualified attorneys will not prevent him from going to jail
he`s going down

^ cosigns with 112 I love me T.I. but he knew better.

…damn y’all angry. I’m scared to comment! lol

.how can you call him a free man ? huh ? when he got more restrictions than inmates them damn self ? the man is as good as in jail. i knew his hood mentality was going to catch up with him one of these days. its not even about the system trying to bring a black man down. its about whats right and wrong. where was he going with all them damn guns ? to start world war four or something (you know we in world war three) –he was seriously on another level. and some of yaull talking about who and who not to trust ? are yaull like serious? its like yaull saying its good to have a million and one guns stored away to the point where he has them locked in a safe that can only be opened with his fingerprints… (shakes head) t.i.p harris was on another level. the bandwagon thats following him talking about free t.i is some damn idiots if you ask me. half these heifers don’t even know the charges he’s on.EDUCATION GOES ALONG WAY YOU IMBECILES. he’s going to need more than GOD to get him out of this bind.i

and this whole his kids thing..think about the kids. OH MY WORD. thats some b.s. where were they when he was partying up in atlanta with lil wayne and what not ? why wasn’t tiny and t.i thinking about them when they all over the partying up a storm ? why think about them when your in such a bind now ? –see people don’t realize what the hell they have `till its gone and thats the problem.

t.i.p/t.i whatever you going by these days… i pray that GOD will bestow you with some sense cause apparently you lacking in that department.dream team or no dream team unless they have enough charges on you to screw you for a LIFE TIME. you better pray the judge have some sympathy or something like that.

last but not least how the hell you he managed to get shaped up ?( (lol) this remind me of when he got PUNKD` by Asthon how he was crying like a mofo…oh ain’t that bitch ? (shakes head) perhaps t.i should call Asthon up maybe he the one who spilled the beans. —the man is screwed.

–what a tangle web he weaved;

to everyone on here beefin with each other… or reading all of this nonsense.. take a minute out to watch this… feel better… FREE TIP!!!!!!!!!!! XOXO enjoy!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z48-gKV5eds

I’m sorry but I would rather stay in jail until the trial, Than pay 3 million dollars bond. The family and who ever can write and visit all they want….

@Chanté, girl u ain’t lying. Everything you said was the truth!

If he’s goin down I wont even miss the music lol. He’s always been overrated as hell, in my eyes (as well as Lil’ Wayne).

he should b jailed 4 dat wack ass album he got out

Good JOB TI! Keep ya head up man..and 3 mil is alot but er body gotta remember its just a bond as long as he dont violate the terms of the bond hell get his money back its just like a Deposit when you get an apartment or something…so hes smart hell stay outta trouble and get that money back….I think hell win this and FIRE all them shady ass body guards that tried to slam his ass….WARNING TO TI: YOU CANT BRING ER BODY OUT THE HOOD WITH U SOME A THEY A**ES NEED TO STAY WHERE THEY AT CAUSE THEY AINT MADE TO COME UP OUT THE GHETTO!….

Lol @ 116..funny

LOL@114 … @111BUT my comments came from other comments on this blog…ppl do nothing but hate on t.i anyway so we cant even stik together on a blog and thats amazing so, real talk is our(blk) race doesnt have that much time left….eminem would of gotten bond the day of the arrest ..trust

GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT—-GOOD LUCK

@122 I’m sorry i honestly do not know much about TI, i don’t know that i’ve heard any of his songs, what i have heard from or about him has been interviews where he has usually sounded like he had common sense, I’ve never hated on him, I’ve never known him to be very successful or not. But i am disappointed, and i don’t believe black people should have to be burdened with sticking up for people who are just plain wrong just because we share the same race. As i said before there was nothing right in what TI did, silencers please… thats not self defence. I dont want people like TI getting bond quickly… i dont think just because Eminem in the same situation would get his bond in supposedly one day as you suggest should make TI get his quicker, it just means that somebody like Eminem should take longer to get his…

This is not the case to be lobbying Washington over injustice in the legal system, not when you’ve got legit cases like Jena 6 or the little boy that was imprisoned for having oral sex with a 15yr old white girl. Or the teenaged girl who was accused of shoving a teenager and they wanted to put her away for a long time.

LMAO@114

yeah I have to agree…I don’t feel that it is about the white man bringing TI down this time.
If it is stipulated that he cannot have a firearm as a felon-he can’t have one-simple as that.

It is not so much as race as it is with class…most of us who were charged with these offense would still be stewing in jail.

As keep in mind that this is not state jurisdiction, this is federal jurisdiction and judges have complete discretion to determine bail guidelines.

@GET_ME_BODIED Girl I could not have said it better myself, I am 42 and my son even said to me (14) Mom that mess is garbage all they do is swamp information from gossip blog and then enxt or tuff from magazines or stuff from the newspaper and he said when they say unnamed source you better know they lying.
In his computer skills clas he is being taught what to stay away from, now here you come with your statement. maybe God tring to tell me something to leave this ish alone because I do have better things to do. I”m Out!!!
DO YOU EVERYBODY!!!!
Oh, about TI did you read the AJC article????? I believe the feds no more than they saying they found more guns in his Atlanta house, and even judge spoke to him evne the hint of a hit they coming to him first….innocent right!!!!

The church I attend is taking up a collection for the Wilson young man just released will go into sholarship fund so he can return back to school.

$3 million and all those legal fees a waste could have really blessed a lot of people.

@#72 I totally agree about the BET summitt about Hip Hop, and when Nelly and TI both were disrespectful to the lady from ESSENCE you should have heard me praying and I said then Lord these young folk need to learn a lesson they don’t have no respect for their mamas or anyone else. Master P was the only on wirh any sense or respect.. Even whe they spoke before congress Master P said he had mama and sisters and these young folk embracing this man like he was not right in the eyes of God he was wrong and I guess theya re going to call the Lord a lie and He said whatsover a man sows he reaps and the law is for lawbreakers to protect the people. TI was planning to do something and the bodyguard probably knew what the deal was and he probably saved someones life maybe TI’s or others and another thing my son works for the Secret Service and he siad Mom I guarantee you they have watched him for long time and they have every duck in a row and that was a sting to stop something major TI and his crew had planned to go down.
So you smart young folk keep talking what you don’t know. The Feds don’t loose too many cases when it comes to weapons and drugs charges because they are two of the most dangerous things to our society and my son said from his sources maybe TI will get clean from drugs at this time of house arrest,as well as Tiny. he said most of the time drugs and guns go hand and hand and Ti was in some debt can you believe that, I can why would his associates have to put up bonds when it is reported he made $16 million last year.
COME ON PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

He only pays 10 percent of the 3 million. So it really aint that much.

I pray for people that lost all their belonging in the California fire, katrina and wars in Dafur and the rest of the world. These people had no power over what happened to them. They are the people are i pray for.
IT, i love your music, your stage presence and your hustle. This time around, you are on your own.I hope you know how to pray cos’ you ain’t getting one from me. How can you be so dumb, stupid and above all……DUMB. Not everyone in this world gets a second chance, you had one and you utterly blew it.

For all the people that are using race as an excuse, please stop making the rest of the black race sound and look ignorant. The law forbids him from owning a fire arm and he had loads and was still buying more. As long as they were his and he bought them, he broke the law and will face the consequences. He is going to jail for a loooong time and i hope that this will be an eye opener to other successful brothers out there. If you break the law, you are going to face the consequences black or white.

Fucking moron

t.i. iz sort of stupid 4 doin dat cuz he know he wuzint suposed 2 du dat but im still repin t.i 2 tha fullest & imma pray 4 him 2 get through this crap

stop spinnin words…it most certainly is about RACE. i dont condone having weapons and silencers but im sure T.I isnt the only person thats in possession of silencers and guns…ppl who say this isnt racial must b crack smokers cause u have murderers out on bond and able to WORK , make a living for their family and their bond wasnt as high as t.i….fuck that someboby had a grudge thats all im sayin

Sorry #46, he had to put up property that is valued at $3million dollars and signed a judgement of confession which means if he does not appear in court, flee the jurisdiction, a minute late for court, the feds will take his property without a hearing. Feds are all about getting money and or property in the end, so you don’t pay a percentage like you would in state court. Secondly, not only does he have to pay for his home security, but he has to pay for the monitoring device and probation supervision as well. Lastly, in the end his legal fees are going to be around $3million if he is going to beat this case and this case is beatable, especially if you have the paper, ask Irv Gotti.

all i have to say is $3 MILLION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BLATENT EXTORITION, im disgusted by that!!! T.I. is silly and ungreatful, ungreatful to himslef to do something so stupid.

he shoulda stayed in and got some of that time knocked off as time served……….then again he could b out plannin to pay a clone to go in……do some songs, get his businesses together and plot.

Sandra Rose is a T.I. Defender to the NTH degree.

The ATF basically used him to get 3 mil. Hopefully, his trial will go alright since he already had to pay 3 mil and you know he is not getting his bail money back!

Um, for the people who keep saying what a waste of 3 million dollars, he WILL get it back if her goes to his court date or whatever. It’s just collateral…

everybody needs to read this. I dont blame t.i. for having guns cause as much shit he talks i too would of took the chance of getting put in jail than 6 feet deep. At the same time look at all the money this man will have to spend at the end of the day cause T.I. and rappers need to be more smarter. I know t.i. bodyguard snitch and thats fuckin bad for the game but with all the money t.i. has and will loose over this plus time if he is found guilty the man could of got well respected bodyguard to carry what ever gun he needed and be by his side 24 hours……….His snitch body guard got a gun charge and turn informant on t.i. but come tip how you gona have a body guard that cant carry a gun….this EFFFin Ga. they give out gun permits like library cards down here….shame on you T.I. for picking him as you bodyguard!

The problem is not the 3 million dollars, HOW MANY TIMES WILL WE HAVE TO LEARN THE HARD WAY? He has a family to take care of, he has money, he’s out the hood, so what’s wrong with him? Hadn’t he put himself in this situation in the first place he wouldn’t have to spend so much, there would have been NO snitching bodyguard, he wouldn’t be a statistic making us look bad again, his family wouldn’t have to deal with all this stress….. etc. Black people kill me. “YOU” give them an opportunity to bring you down, then blame everyone but yourself. And frankly, when you stop living by the gun, it isn’t just about “avoiding the man’s plan”, it’s about healing the community first and foremost. The bodyguard? Maybe he told T.I. long before snitching that it wasn’t right and because T.I. didn’t listen, his conscience led him to snitch? Do you realize that someone could have been KILLED?? Maybe that bodyguard has a family to take care of, ever thought of that? That’s one less black man/brother/cousin/son/friend/probably husband/probably father BEHIND BARS!!!

You’re right number 10, It’s not fair that TI has to pay 3 Million in bail money, BECAUSE ANYBODY ELSE’S ASS WOULD STILL BE SITTING IN JAIL. Usually people don’t even have the option of getting bail after 2 convictions, this dumb ass is working on #8 as we speak. 3 Million is more than reasonable because A) He’s a flight risk and has more than enough resources to disappear, and B) He’s a 7 time loser, who has a lot to lose.

It’s sad that blacks don’t defend blacks. We look at each other as inferior and it’s depressing. Yeah, so and so might have made a bad decision. But don’t throw the person under the bus and judge him. We still have to support each other and stick together to progress as people. As a young black male, I run a very successful business in Atlanta and ironically 95% of my corporate clients are white (the 5% black clients rarely try to help generate new referrals). Believe it or not, I’ve heard more old white men support T.I. then you people in this blog. There are a few things to analyze here:

1) No one knows ALL the facts in this case (including his attorneys yet); don’t be media whores.
2) Not many people have the type of money and fame that T.I. has….so understanding why he feels the need to have guns is beyond your reality
3) Guilt or innocence is not the burden of proof in the court of law….it’s reasonable doubt from a jury
4) $3M is just a bond/bail….he will get it back regardless and that’s only probably 8% of his income from 06’ and the money will probably double has his legal defense fund.

It’s funny because when we (blacks) try to use the law to our advantage…..we criticize each other and judge. Here are a few defenses for T.I.’s reasonable doubt:

1) Gave bodyguard money to purchase guns to protect him and the bodyguard decided NOT to legally register them
2) The house where the weapons were is NOT his primary residence (plus he is on the road 80% of the year)
3) Guns were in house for the bodyguard to protect his family while T.I. is on the road
4) T.I. wanted to see exactly what type of firearms his bodyguard was purchasing to protect his life
5) Well….the bodyguards credibility is in question (if he is the superstar witness….then I hope he has been walking a very narrow line throughout his life)
6) T.I. is unlike any other 7 time felon…in that he has legitimate threats on his life everyday and is a multi-millionaire.
7) And the list goes on and on……………

I’m not saying I condone or condemn the behavior I’m just saying it’s in the hands of the court of law, not public opinion. And now WE should play by the rules of the court…like WHITE people do every time this occurs. Don’t be media whores and react off press clipping…..listen clearly to ALL the facts and play in the right court. And you people arguing if something is fair….you are crazy. The legal system IS NOT FAIR and now that a black man is benefiting you come crying that bullshit. Who said the US was designed to be fair?

@144

the best thing you can do is to pay some visits to your boy TI when he hits the jail because what you`re saying is pure garbage, he had a bodyguard who himself wasnt allowed to carry guns, dont you get that? fool ! yeah your clients are whites well its simple stick with your clients and stop saying black people are wrong because they`re supporting justice, the notion that we have to be suportive of any black person regardless of what he/she has done is so primitive reasoning but then again why am i not surprised? is the only multi millionaire in this country? if he received threats to his life or any other relative why didnt he report that to law enforcement authorities? instead of acting like modern day robin hood? did the house belong to him or not? well i guess you know the answer prmiary residence or not the house was his…ask mike vick!
just chill..homie this brother got to pay for being so dumb, thats what happens when idiots drop out of high school
SENT TI TO JAIL ASAP!

TI is dumb as fuck he going to fuck up everything he got going for him which ain’t much but his acting. Is it just me or all his songs sound the same and his songs are always talking about “you don’t know”

#144 and he could also say the silencers were free. Buy 1 machine gun, get 2 silencers free, how could he turn that down?..I’m sure TI could use that one too.

I’m just telling you how the criminal justice system works. I’m not fighting your opinion. I just don’t understand how you can have such a STRONG opinion on something you don’t have all the details on or ANY clear cut FACTS.

148# TI ain’t worth debating about believe he just a getto ass person that ain’t going to do shit but stay in the getto he just fucking up his own life who really gives a damn!!!
