Blade is still trying to dodge the long arm of the law, and we must admit, he is doing a hell of a job at it:

Wesley Snipes is appealing his three-year prison sentence for tax evasion, arguing his work helping to thwart terrorists makes him a national hero, according to reports. The troubled star, 45, was handed the sentence in April after officials found him guilty of failing to file taxes for five years. He is currently free pending an appeal, which will center around his work teaching airline flight crews martial arts, following the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 2001. Snipes’ lawyers will tell the appeal court how the actor, “quietly and without any attempt to garner publicity” worked with martial arts experts and that his efforts “helped thwart the notorious ‘shoe bomb’ attack by terrorist Richard Reid.” The website reports that Snipes’ legal team will also argue his original trial was flawed because of improper jury instruction and the lack of a pre-trial hearing.

Not the, “I’m a hero” line, Wesley. Say it ain’t so. SMH at the legal team he paid to come up with that bullsh*t.

    His ass needs to go to jail…being rich doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t go to jail…poor people go to jail every day for longer periods of time for the same thing he did!

  • Oshie got that killa p

    I’m just curious, what in the HELL does teaching martial arts to airline employees have to do with tax evasion? Anyone?

  • kahmmillion

  • statim08

    He’s got enough money to have his lawyers try anything to overturn the guilty verdict. He’s lucky to be free while awaiting an appeal, so the court should quickly uphold the conviction and send him where he belongs.

    cute kids. I hope his sorry crispy ass goes to jail.

    @ I <3 Beyonce….

    Where does your shallowness based on skin color evolve from? Do you think you are amusing or humorously likeable? You think you look better because you are most likely half a shade lighter than Wesley Snipes? Give me the top reason why being lighter skinned is better than being darker skinned. And I am only asking this because I want to mercilessly shred apart your adolescent ignorance with my immaculate intelligence.

    I’m waiting…

  • Christmas Jones

    and all the other idiots on here who like pointing out skin color in discussions that have nothing to do with it.

  • sepia830

    If memory serves, Wesley has other kids. Why don’t we ever see him with them?

    Wesley should have known the government was keeping tabs on his ass. I remember seeing something on a news program years ago about some martial arts compound he helped finance and how the people who lived there were always being caught outside the compound with guns. The authorities were being denied access to the place so it is no wonder that he was busted for tax evasion.

    Hey I saw that film. The guy who used to lock my hair was always showing me conspiracy films. Now is that the one that addresses the fact that there is no real law that says we have to pay federal taxes? Or is that the one where the politicians (George Bush, Arnold Schwartnegger, etc..) have rituals in the woods?

  • Christmas Jones

    @Sepia…yo, I’m Christmas 365 days a year lol

  • sepia830

    @Christmas Jones

    Is that your real name?

  • Christmas Jones

    @Sepia…

    Ahhh, I know never to use the real name on internet…I just spread Christmas cheer throughout the year *WINK*

  • sepia830

    @Film.

    Okay that was the one. It tripped me out that not even the IRS agents could name the law that required us to pay federal taxes. Every American citizen should see that movie and riot in the streets. Until then…..I just have to keep paying ‘cuz I’m not trying to be like Wesley.

    With regard to the other film….is that what it’s called, a Bohemian Society? That film was DEEP. There is a lot of crazy ish going on that we don’t know about.

    Now which one of those films was made by the guy who directed ‘Trading Places’ (I think) and later turned up dead?

    Funny! How about Asiacks??

    @Christmas Jones

    lol…and here I was sympathizing with you. I am somebody who knows what it’s like to have an unusual name. I have a “boys” name and it has caused me much grief throughout my life (all boy gym classes in school, threatening letter from the draft board when I turned 18, being placed in an all-male dorm @ Howard University, even though I checked the box that says “Miss”. I have even called my credit card company and been referred to the fraud department for impersonating someone else!)

  • snapcracklepop

    President Obama will pardon wesley because he is a huge blade fan.

  • BE…..Really?

    i don’t know – if you pay your back taxes and fines and penalties why do you have to go to jail. I can see if after he owed he left the country and said he wasn’t paying

    @mirror,if it was a case of him wanting to make sure hiskids were ligt he woulda just got with a white chick.wesley has always been into oriental culture .

  • leeha

    Isn’t america’s prisons busting at the seams right now? Why put this otherwise law abiding father in jail for three years? Look at this picture, obviously he cares about his kids. why separate this man from his kids. something is wrong with a society that would punish a family so much for a non-violent crime. make him pay his taxes, fine him, put him on probation, and give him community services instead of spending tax payers money on locking a good man up.

    @ mirror

    Don’t flatter yourself, u are not a mirror for black people at all. we don’t need you to reflect anything for us. you’re a reflection of your own hate filled, deprived upbringing. go get some therapy to help you work through your budding racism that hides the fact that you aren’t comfortable in your own skin.

    I commend you on the excellent articulation of your views regarding my short comings as a member of the human race. To that I can only respond, “madaam, eat a dick”.

  • big_watcher

    Jeeeeez! some of you ladies need to join the KKK, if you hate dark skinned folk this much.

  • Ms. T.

    Is anybody other than the Feds even checking for Nino anymore?

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    You people are funny, wesley aint spendin’ one day in jail.

    1. That $16 million he owes is locked safely away in philipino and African banks.

    2. Rich n*ggas never go to jail, look at RKelly, Michael Jackson, Robert Blake and Phil Spector. OJ only went after he lost all his money in the first trial.

  • The Pink People Fear Genetic Annihilation, That’s Why They Hate You

    LOL@ Passenger 51 surrounded by all those kids

    They look like they eat hella collard greens with a side of shrimp fried rice. Growing mouths to feed Wes, I hope you socked some away! :D

  • d

    another self – hating black man. so sad. The more you try to deny….the more society has to prove to you Blade….you are black.

  • HoneyBrown

    So is his legal team using the Passenger 57 defense?? N#gga please ….. you don’t pay your taxes, Uncle Sam’s gonna get in that ass sooner or later!
    As far as his color and his choice of mate, that’s his business. Black is beautiful!
