Wanna talk Enron, or most any of the other corporate white dudes who have been punished? I don't hear any race card being played when 99% of Caucasian corporate criminals are sentenced...
I can't believe there were racial references made in this thread.
Since when are criminals not criminals?

Example is public humilation..are you detached from reality? So you are saying that examples are made of those girls b/c they were publicly humiliated? The same girls who wear no underwear or make sex tapes? And you think that is being made an example of? Give me a break....
One of my points which you assisted me with is that money is more important than life in this system. DUIs kill people, taking from the government rarely does. A simple pay us more than you owe (i.e. interest) or a taking some of his assets until he paid the government in full would have been MUCH less of a strain on the OVER CROWDED jails cells TAYPAYERS PAY FOR ANYWAY!!!! But no they wanted to make him an example...I guess he is lucky he got publicly humiliated and a huge ass jail sentence...
Race is an issue you are blind or na

Criminals are criminal...black, white, yellow or green...but when some are given harsher sentences than others..we need to call it what it is and stop ignoring it and fix the problem..
According to your logic, somone that goes 10mph over the limit should be sentenced harder than a thief because the speeder could have hurt someone. Snipes was playing with fire and he got burned.
Did you read the post I was responding too? Not sure why you are quoting a section of my post you make no mention of???
According to my logic????
DUIs are dangerous to the public stealing from the government is NOT. Priority is money not life in this system. Again, sending the man to jail for the already OVER TAXED taxpayer to pay is crap. Have the man pay back the money with interest and do some IRS jingle or something....making an example of him was wrong and IMO based on color.
Also let me be clear my overall point is to say that justice is usually unfair to the poor and those of color. YOU are fooling yourselves if you believe otherwise...

Here goes another post to the white man holding them down. LOL. You make no mention of the fact that black people get all kinds of stuff from the government that white people will never get. Let's discuss scholarships for black kids. How is that equal?
Did you ever think that maybe black people just commit more crimes? I know, its a crazy notion but maybe, just maybe its possible.
Do the math: How many jews and asians are in prison? Answer: very few. Do you really think thats some crazy conspiracy?
Simply put, Snipes broke the law. He got exactly what was coming to him. Call it racist if you must
