AB GuestPost - Black Men Can't Run... From Uncle Sam!

[AverageBro isn't the only blog I read, of course. Sometimes I'll come across a post elsewhere that says what I can't say, and far better. So, I now present to you the latest installment of our newest feature: The AverageBro GuestPost. Pinch hitting today, my cousin HotAirBaLogger.]

Greetings to the AverageBro audience. It's a pleasure to fill in for my cousin during his hiatus to the land of 10,000 lakes. Hurry back AB!!!

During my constant surfing of the web for juicy stories to bring to my readers, I found this little nugget:

Actor Wesley Snipes claims a central Florida county is too racist to allow him to get a fair trial on tax evasion charges.

An October 2006 federal indictment charges Snipes with fraudulently claiming refunds totaling nearly $12 million in 1996 and 1997 for income taxes already paid. The 45-year-old star of the "Blade" trilogy and other films also was charged with failure to file returns from 1999 through 2004.

In a motion filed Monday in U.S. District Court, Snipes' lawyer argued that the U.S. Attorney's Office willfully selected the Marion County seat of Ocala because prosecutors "deliberately chose the most racially discriminatory venue available to the government with the best possibility of an all-white Southern jury where Snipes has never resided."

Word???

Is that what this amounts to, Bobby Rayburn? The Man is out to getcha???

Correct me if I am wrong, Roemello Skuggs, but YOU were the one that didn't pay your taxes for like 6 years. What does that have to do with race? Nothing.

You owe $12mil, James Wheeler.

I mean, didn't this dude haul ass out of the country when he was indicted?

Its time to face the music, Mark Sheridan. Don't you watch Cops or at least played one, Lt. Webster Smith? Black men are no good at avoiding the legal system and when it comes to taxes you can hang it up.

If you don't believe it, Noxeema Jackson, just ask these well known brothers who decided the gubment had taken enough, but later realized that the long arm of the law is long enough to reach in your pocket and take what they want.

You can't place the race card on this one, Flipper Purify.

We have all heard of the old adage about death and taxes.

You just can't win against Uncle Sam, Mr. Nino Brown.

I guess Shadow Henderson needs to dust off his sax or check the schedule for the Money Train so he can pay that tax bill. Living in America ain't free...just ask Franklin Swift.

Say hi to Adebisi for me, Simon Phoenix.

[The references to Mr. Snipes' characters are an effort to drum up interest in his previous works which could possibly increase his revenue. I want to help John Cutter as much as possible]

Lord, I need help.

Thanks for listening...check me out @ Full of Hot Air.
