Joc to Cops: Where'd That Gun Come From?!

Posted Dec 24th 2007 2:08PM by TMZ Staff

Rapper Yung Joc has been charged with carrying a concealed weapon, after cops say they found a loaded semi-automatic gun in his carry-on bag at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. It's goin' down!

Joc, whose real name is Jasiel Robinson, was arrested around 6:15 AM Sunday morning, before boarding a Delta flight. He was attempting to go through a regular security checkpoint when police say they found the handgun and ammunition. Cops say the rapper told them he didn't know the weapon was there. Oops!

He was arrested without incident, is now free on $50,000 bail and will be arraigned Wednesday.

His attorney told the AP, "Yung Joc maintains his innocence. He would appreciate privacy as he addresses these allegations."

17. Wow...Topanga from Boy Meets World got arrested and what type of comments do i see??
Shes hot...Shes so cute...Cute role model

This chick swears up and down on the Tyra show about how innocent she is and how she doesnt drink
Yung Joc, who is married and takes care of his kids. [actually walks the walk] gets arrested. In no way am i condoning his actions, but what comments do i see.
Racist ignorant bs about how he's a publicity whore...

The ones who actually think this are the REAL sub humans who are incapable of realizing that not every single person of color [black, latino, asian, middle eastern] is a walking poster child of negative stereotypes. There are just as many [or even more] successful, educated black people who dont commit crimes than there are ignorant thugs [which actually come in all shapes, sizes, and colors] Oh and that generalization of rappers is so incorrect that its not even funny.

"I know you take offense to certain words
I've heard worse, but I wouldn't blame ya'
They say he's a entertainer, don't worry about it, never mind Kramer
The Crocodile Hunter got stung, and the lion turned on the lion tamer
We keep sending troops to Iraq, I figured that we must like danger
Little kids don't learn in school they go to school to go spray a gun
If you a parent, then be a parent, get off the couch and go raise your son
Kobe just broke another record, today's game he hit 81
Now they saying he's number 1, but yesterday they all hated him
OJ was named innocent, he got no sentence, he's still alive
It's very ironic that the lawyer that defended him had to die
Well, now my cue card says the price of gas isn't really high
But I'm not going to read that, 'cause we all know that that's a lie
Rest in peace to Virgina Tech, too many innocent kids dyin'
Well let's just blame hip-hop and act like that's the big problem"

22. What is up with the crotch grabbing? For real, what does it signify? Dude, keep your hands off you stuff in front of other people, especially a whole audience. Also, get some pants that fit. Everyone does not want to see your ass. Pants are so low, the pockets are hitting the ankles.

26. #21, not sure what quoting Chamillionaire has to do with this, but since you are doing that, I'll add some more of his genius (and yes, I like his songs and his fine @ss, but genius his lyrics are not). "Look in my phone, find a chick I wanna bone." -Chamillionaire

27. I always have wondered how people "forget" they have a handgun in their carry-on luggage...
