Snipes acquitted. Link here. Wow, was I wrong on this one. Of course, it's always hard to convict famous and well-liked celebrities.
Blade about to be struck down. IRS stronger than silver, garlic and sunlight combined. Blade dull when failing to pay taxes. Tax code sharpest Blade of all. Excuse my indulgence, I'm actually not auditioning for the New York Post.
Wesley Snipes is in big trouble. Article here.
I've always liked his movies. What causes somebody to fall for this stuff? Yes, paying taxes stinks. Something good to remember during this campaign season. Wanna pay more? Think about it before you vote. He's probably going to see jail time. The former IRS commissioner in the article says this kind of case has to send a message. Not that the tax wackos out there will listen, but maybe it will stop somebody from getting sucked into this junk.
I especially like this quote:
Kahn now refuses to leave his jail cell because he believes the court has no jurisdiction to prosecute him.
If they don't have jurisdiction, why are you in a cell? Comedy. Believing you are invisible and actually being invisible are two different things.
Remind me to share my tax protestor stories with you sometime.
