You don’t say – Atlanta rapper who goes under the name “Young Thug” is arrested and faces up to eight felony charges
Man, who could have seen this coming? A guy who goes by the name of Young Thug, arrested for doing the kinds of things that young thugs are known for doing, like having drugs, threatening people, distributing drugs, among all other charges.
This isn’t the first time I’ve written about this guy, because shockingly, he’s had run-ins with the law several times over, over the last few years, but it does not seem apparent that regardless of how much his rap credibility increases, it doesn’t change the fact that he’s still subject to do dumb shit under his own volition.
I think the funniest part about this is that it all started with getting pulled over for suspicion of too-dark window tint. It’s one of the most ticky-tack bullshit violations to be pulled over for in the first place, and no doubt that there was some racial profiling involved with the cop’s decision to pull him over in the first place. Don’t get me wrong, I see cars all the time with window tint that’s got to obviously be illegal, so I’m a little surprised to see someone actually getting pulled over for it in the first place.
Lo and behold, it turns out that the car is driven by a minor celebrity, and holy shit did he have a lot of drugs in his possession at that time. Naturally, there’s a gun in the car too, because how can anyone be a young thug without having a firearm as well? The legality of its ownership is never mentioned, although one can easily speculate.
Either way, it’s the shocker of the century that Young Thug is arrested; again, and it’s not one of those things where anyone can even pull the race card. The guy had a car that raised red flags, and upon further inspection, it turned out that there were plenty of reasons to arrest the guy. It’s not like he’s actually going to serve any time, because if the guy can seemingly get back out on the streets after skipping out on warrants and threatening the lives of other people, it’ll be a short stay in incarceration before he’s back out on the streets, and probably not long afterward before he’s busted again for some stupid shit.
