Source: T.I. Didn't Do It!

Is he packin' heat or isn't he? A source close to embattled rapper T.I. says that the gun charges leveraged against the hip-hopper are false; T.I. never tried to purchase guns -- it was all his bodyguard.

The source told MediaTakeOut.com that "[The bodyguard] asked T.I. for an advance on his [pay] and T.I. gave it to him. ...Whatever he spent money on -- whether it be guns, drugs, or formula for his children -- T.I. had nothing to do with it." That's it, he was buying formula!

And those guns found in T.I.'s house? "T.I. has security that lives with him and stay with him at all times. The gun that the [federal agents] found belonged to his security team" -- all of whom are licensed to carry them, the source claims.

"The government was just looking to pin a case on T.I. - they've been trying for years. So they pushed [the bodyguard] into snitching on T.I."

But according to CNN, authorities said they found three firearms in the car in which T.I. -- also know as Cilfford Harris -- drove to pick up the machine guns and silencers, "including one loaded gun tucked between the driver's seat where Harris had been sitting and the center console."

Conspiracy, or just caught up?

91. To hell wit everybody who has something negative to say about T.I. So what, he made a mistake. He's not God, he's human and he never asked no damn body to look up to or admire him. If you don't like him stop keeping up wit what he's doing and find an artist that's perfect. Yeah right, good luck!!!

92. Im Sure none of you are black or know what it means to be a black man with money, hence the term "rather be caught with it than without it". but T.I is on probation and 2 yrs ago he fought felony weapons charges from an old case stupid is stupid. Can we say he deserves it?

Your 100% right and that last comment is why the people in power can't seem to resolve the real issues affecting the good and honest citizens of this country instead they impose a really hypocritical idea of what the problem is. By the way you don't need to watch too much T.V. to realize all the racism and racial conspiracies!

99. Just ask a few people from places like china or japan for example how they got there impressions of what a black person was like not having known one and more than likely they'll tell you "by watching T.V."
