Snipes Monkey Trial

Wesley Snipes is facing charges of tax evasion and his trial is scheduled to be in Ocala, Florida. I thought that was pretty neat until this story came out:

Snipes's attorney called Ocala "a hotbed of Ku Klux Klan activity" and wants a change of venue.

My advice for Mr. Snipes:

Fire your lawyer, pay your taxes, and shut up about Ocala! You are WAY off base, my friend!

I tend to think of Ocala as a hotbed of horse activity...

I guess he's never heard the phrase, "nothing in life is certain but death and taxes."

Yes, the man is an idiot and should pay his taxes. That said, do you really think calling him a monkey helps back up your point that Ocala is not racist? By the way, "The KLAN Store" address is a PO Box in Ocala. Check out klanstore.com if you don't believe me.

It was supposed to be a joke as in the Scopes Monkey Trial... get it?

Chris, Have you been doing some Christmas shopping at the Klan Store?!? :)

I needed a new 4"-wide confederate flag belt buckle, and my wife wouldn't loan me hers any more.

FYI girls: I went to klanstore.com and saw NO PO Box address in Ocala. Chris could report for Fox News!
