Celebrity Justice
The Game Charged with Pulling Gun During Game

The GameRapper The Game has been charged with making a criminal threat and with possession of a firearm in a school zone during a Feb. 24 pickup basketball game, according to the L.A. District Attorney's office.

The rapper, whose real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor, allegedly got into an altercation with a player on an opposing team during a basketball game at the Rita Walters Educational Learning Complex in South Los Angeles. After allegedly punching the victim, cops say The Game pulled a gun from his red Escalade and threatened to pop the victim. Not very sportsmanlike!

The 27-year-old is also charged with one count of exhibiting a firearm in the presence of an officer. He is scheduled to be arraigned on Tuesday for the three felonies.

Just last month, LAPD arrested The Game at his Glendale home, after police executed a search warrant. He was released on $50,000 bail. If convicted, The Game is facing more than five years in state prison.

32. As a Black person, am sick of my race defending the "ball and chain scum" that's attached to our ankles. We need to STOP being defensive of people that deserve no defense, it makes us look like conspireres.

I understand the frustration felt by many White people. Our culture is not only vile and damaging to us, but other cultures are adhering to these destructive images and suffering the consquences.

White kids are coming home saying N**&er, and doing the Beyonce shake, it's not a good thing.

We Must take BACK our neighborhoods and Realize HIP HOP cannot be on the forefront of our communities.

34. Poor Michael Vick, surely a victim of racism...................................

Poor OJ, certainly a victim of racism............................

Why are the prisons filled 95% with African Americans? Racism? I doubt it. Open your eyes and rise above this crap. Live like Obama and see how life changes for you. Stop your whining and complaining.

I don't touch Swine.............................too much bible thumping. Try getting a job and getting off the weed. Disgusting.

35. Such racist comments! Why do some white people do this all of the time??? What is it about black people that terrorizes you so much to the point where any chance you get, you will try to bring them down? That is why black people cannot stand and do not trust most of you. That is why racism will never go away- because there is no trust and no respect, and black people for the most part do not want to trust white people. Too much bad history.

36. Lisssa, sure your kids are in college to be lawyers. Have you chekced on them lately? They are probably doing the same things the Paris Hiltons' Lindsay Lohans, Game, Emeniem, and the rest of the crew are doing. Something their parents never could have imagined.

Its amazing how the Internet gives Racist all the courage in the world, but when in the real world (away from the computer) you hide.

Your kids are probably bi-racial, which is where your anger stems from.

37. Sorry..not terrorized by any skin color, nor am I looking to win anyone's trust. The Game is a waste of space and I think his actions speak for themselves. If he was purple I'd feel the same way.

38. Shandra et. al racist:

You said, "Why are the prisons filled 95% with African Americans"

First, you're pulling percentages out of your behind! The answer to your question is at the following link:

Lisaaaa: I'm glad your children are in college because the way you express yourself, everyone on this blog knows the time you spent getting your GED was worthless. Someone in your (untinted) trailer has to be educated.

BTW - What's with the tinted windows comments? Doesn't anyone else find that comment odd? You must live in middle America! You said, "I pray everyday that I don't have tinted windows." WTF? You're stupid!

41. So I guess that white people are perfect and they have all of their children by the same father and mother, huh? Nope- not true. Black people are at a disadvantaged position in America, and if some of these priviledged white people would help them instead of bringing them down all of the time, maybe then the black community would be better. If you are concerned enough to talk about it all of the time, then do something about it!
