The Game Charged with Pulling Gun During Game

Posted Jun 4th 2007 5:34PM by TMZ Staff

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.

64. Rappers are two steps below republicans and used car salesmen. This jerk needs to worry about dropping the soap in the shower of the CA State Prison. The Game is up!

66. I like rap. Not all rappers are like that. Some comments that were made is just ignorant. At least, he's not dumb and untalented like Paris Hilton. And yes, kids look up to these rappers but, they also look up Nicole Ritchie (who drove the wrong way on the freeway a few months back), Lindsay Lohan (enough said), Britney Spears, and dumb Paris Hilton. So let's not blame it on rap or anything else. Parent's just need to watch their children. It's their job not the society and media...

67. Sounds like the perfect cellmate for Paris, tee hee. Man this dirtbag needs to get the full jail term for his crimes. It is so sad that there are people buying music from scum like this and looking up to them as if they were worthy of being any kind of role model, sad.

69. #59 You really think some of the black parents tell their kids that it is cute to shoot other people? If that were true it would be due more to a malfunctioning of the brain rather than race.

70. Can't we all just unite instead of bringing each other down? None of us mean any of these horrible words typed here. Blacks have many white friends. Whites have many black friends. Most of us know gay people that we like as friends. What we put out in this world will surely come back to each of us. I have written some racist comments under a different name. This morning I am ashamed at myself. I am sorry to those that I may have offended trying to "stir the pot" and have fun at another races' expense. Today I say no more. Will you join me? Let's all stop this bashing.

71. Not even money can keep these guys out of the gutter. you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Take your rapper money and go back to school, not jail, go to school.

72. # 83 and 59 Education and staying in school and learning is the road to true freedom. Ignorance and lack of education will keep you poor and blaming the better educated for all of your woes. "Give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. TEACH a man how to fish and he will eat for his lifetime.."

73. These guys are angry because they learned it at someone's knee growing up. Have a good heart and stay in school and then you have no one but yourself to blame for your failures, not society. It's easier blameing someone else than taking responsibililty for your own life.

74. White girl, what happened? You went from a practicing real estate attorney in Chicago to a third year law student in Nashville. Explain please.

75. #89 Those white girls you mentioned probably didn't go to school either. THey were loosely tutored and enabled to be losers with money or trash with cash. Paris went to private highschool, but the rest of them are really losers. Lindsay will get dragged down by her parents and peers. Brittney will be a fat hasbeen without an education, and her kids will probably have minimal education like their mother.
