The rapper - who was arrested in October for possession of drugs and a firearm - wishes the planet could be free of guns so no more lives could be unnecessarily cut short.
[LAY DOWN YOUR ARMS: Snoop Dogg, who was arrested in October for possession of a firearm, has called for a world gun amnesty.]
He said: "I would like everyone to be able to put down their guns. Guns are not good. When I was growing up I knew my life could be taken in a second by a gun."
In October, Snoop was stopped by police for a traffic violation at the Bob Hope Airport, in Burbank. An unlicensed gun and marijuana were found during a search of his vehicle.
The rapper was charged with possession of a firearm and transportation of a controlled substance and released on $35,000 bail.
In November, Snoop handed himself into police after a warrant was issued for his arrest over a separate charge of possession of a deadly weapon. He was charged and bail set at $150,000.
The rapper had been stopped at the John Wayne Airport, in Santa Ana, on September 27 after a 20-inch extendable baton was found in his bag. Snoop claimed he did not know it was illegal and was going to use it in his video. The baton was confiscated and the rapper was allowed to board his San Francisco flight.
Part of a plea bargain.
How about your bodyguards set an example and go first
Well, Snoop my friend, there's always Uranus. No guns there, fer shur...
How about a world without the smart@@@ thug smirks that are displayed everytime you see a rapper. Better yet, lets rid the world of rap music.
Deep thinker ping!
Making sure your marks are unarmed
How about a world without hip hop, gangsta rap, and those that produce and support it?
Snoop Dogg is a pimp and a gangster who's usually high.
Not sure if he even knows what's coming out of his piehole most of the time.
I vote for a world with less Snoop.
"Snoop Dogg wants a world without guns."
EyeGuy wants a world without Snoop Dogg."
Snoop wants a world without guns.
I want a world without Rap
Here is an idea Snoop. Tell your ignorant friends to stop singing about violence and wanting to shoot cops. But then again that wont sell records to ignorant buyers.
Yeah. Then you and your "homies" started moving out to the suburbs and bringing your gangster ways with you, and I had to buy a gun too...
Im supposed to believe that a man who has made millions off of violence and continues to do so is now a pacifist? BWAAAAHAAAAAAAHAAAA
sell out!
He must have just toked his favorite bong before he made this statement.
In an armed society, would-be criminals know that too.
Well, drugs aren't legal and Snoop is obviously smoking something, so why would taking guns away actually work?
NO guns except for my posse...
