... Cops Say NFL Star Had Uzi In Lambo SUV

Law enforcement sources tell us Clark was pulled over for a routine traffic stop Sunday evening in Los Angeles ... when cops say they noticed an open duffle bag in his ride.
Our sources say officers saw the gun inside the bag ... and arrested the 28-year-old for felony illegal possession of a firearm.
The Kansas City Chiefs superstar is still behind bars in the Los Angeles area, jail records show.
According to the records, Clark -- listed at 6'3", 255 pounds -- was arrested at 9:20 p.m. ... and was booked into jail hours later at 9:28 a.m. Monday.
We've reached out to Clark and the Chiefs for comment ... but so far, no word back yet.
Clark was a key piece in the Chiefs' runs to the Super Bowls the last two years ... after being traded from Seattle to Kansas City before the 2019 season, Clark logged 14 sacks in 26 starts and was great in postseason play too.
In fact, Clark was so good for the Chiefs since joining the team ... he was selected to the Pro Bowl in each of his 2 seasons on the squad.
Of course, this is not Clark's first brush with legal trouble ... you'll recall, he was arrested in 2014 after being accused of domestic violence -- and was kicked off the Univ. of Michigan football team over it all.
Clark eventually struck a deal with prosecutors in that case, agreeing to plead guilty to a lesser charge of misdemeanor disorderly conduct.
Clark is currently in the middle of a 5-year, $104 MILLION contract with the Chiefs.

While that's hilarious the NFLPA would never allow it. EA took a ton of flack for the NCAA mechanic where you had to suspend guys for infractions or risk NCAA sanctions, it was cool yet only last for 1 year because of the butthurt. [Reply]
Here's the thing: if Clark were stopped in just about any other western state, and assuming that we're talking about the semi-auto version, most likely absolutely nothing would've happened. [Reply]

Be aware of where you are.
Fuck, I called Denver PD just to make sure I could drive through with an AR-10 in the car.

I think that if you have a Class 3 firearms license and a federal tax stamp and a bunch of other taxes and hoops to be able to legally own a machine gun / fully automatic weapon.
So can you own a machine gun? Yes
Can you actually afford and qualify for said ownership of weapon? it becomes extremely difficult for joe blow down the street to do such a thing. So throw in the license costs and then the Taxes per weapon on the federal level every year. Then what does the state restrict or make you pay in taxes every year per weapon. [Reply]
