MTV’s Sway recently interviewed “The Kang” T.I. on his reaction to the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre, and the rapper provided some interesting commentary. Just days after the horrific shooting, T.I. stated that the slayings is why he would travel with so many guns on him.
This is what the legendary rap artist told Sway:
It’s a tragedy and it’s a travesty, it was a catastrophic event. My heart goes out to the families. As a parent, there’s no way that you can hear or see or observe something like that go on and not be touched in your heart. Just to know somewhere so sacred, somewhere that is supposed to be completely off limits to any kind of wrongdoing, something like that can happen to kindergarteners — I don’t want to run the risk of sounding inappropriate but that is exactly the reason why I had mines. At any time, if anybody calls me, anytime, when I had mines, I’m pulling up with ’em and the whole perimeter will be secure and ain’t nobody moving but us. … I haven’t been to the military but I’m very militant-minded when it come to protecting.
