Lil Wayne Argues Gun Charges

Posted: 21 Oct 2009 10:19 PM PDT

Lil Wayne’s lawyers challenged the validity of a new forensic test that links a persons DNA with a weapon. The gun in question is an illegal gun that was tossed out of Lil Wayne’s tour bus window after being pulled over by police in NY. Police said they pulled over the bus after they noticed marijuana smoke extruding from the windows after a hip hop concert. The Louis Vuitton bag they saw being tossed out of a window contained an illegal hand gun.

Lil Wayne’s lawyers argued that there were over a dozen people on that bus but charges were only laid on Lil Wayne because of his public status. I’d have to agree with that one. Why else would they go through such length to link a gun to Lil Wayne. There was no murder, only possession. The NY district attorneys spend less time on murder trials then they do on these high profile ridiculous cases.

Let this be a lesson though for anyone thinking of buying an illegal gun… don’t do it! I have no problem with people wanting to own their own gun for protection. Hell, carry it around everywhere you go. Just don’t buy it illegally. If you can’t get a gun legally then good, you probably shouldn’t own a gun anyways. And if you are carrying something illegal don’t throw it out the window when getting pulled over… that’s just plain dumb.
