"There is a revolver with bullets" on the album cover, (Campagna) noted.

OMG!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!! IT'S A PICTURE OF A GUN AND SOME BULLETS!!!

I hope the judge b*tch slaps this moron DA.

I call BS on this. It appears that everyone of these articles traces back to an extreme fringe “news” source:

http://countercurrentnews.com/2014/11/rap-artist-with-no-criminal-record-faces-life-in-prison-for-album-lyrics/#

No one did any additional investigation to see if ANYTHING in “counter current news” is true. All articles just mindlessly repeated the crap they found at “counter current news”.

As fuched up as things are right now, there’s still no way that someone would be in jail with a million dollar bail and face life in prison for just an album cover that had a gun on it.

These charges against him are bogus. You can't put someone in jail for publishing a photograph of a gun.

Freedom of speech is the connection. I dont have a problem with the rapper’s thug cover as falling under it. I do have a problem with yelling fire in a theatre when there is not one.

Glad to help you out.

Don't be so certain.....crazier things have happened under the "3 strikes" law.

Last week: You can’t have a gun.
This week: You can’t have a picture of a gun.
Next week: You can’t be a Christian.

Let’s not beat around the bush — we know where this is all going. Second Amendment goes, the First Amendment goes. And they want the First Amendment gone for a very definite reason.

It’s a sad state of affairs when people can’t tell the difference between satire and reality, only because reality these days is insane.

You missed the LA TIMES?????

$HIT like this tells me we are entering into DANGEROUS territory in regard to the Government and our first and second amendment RIGHTS.

Whether you like "Rap" or not.. if this artist is convicted of ANYTHING it will be the beginning of the end.

Government will be set in motion to take it even further knowing that they CAN PREVAIL.

I didn’t miss the LA Times. They published a DAY AFTER “Counter Current News”, just like EVERYONE ELSE published AFTER “Counter Current News”.
