in That's low on Empoprise-MU
I guess all that peace love and hairgrease stuff is out the window now. I'm still trying to get someone to tell me "How does an old person beat someone up?" He's like 72!

Mike (Evorgleb),
Sorry for my delayed response. Regarding the question of how a 72 year old Don Cornelius could (allegedly) beat someone up,
First, I don't know how long Don and Viktoria were together, but if they had been together for a long time, a certain amount of psychological domination could have occurred.
Second, if you doubt that elderly people could cause a lot of physical harm to others, try visiting a care facility for people with Alzheimer's and other types of dementia. In the later stages of these illnesses, these patients feel helpless and are sometimes apt to lash out, sometimes physically. And they can hurt.
And obviously you don't have to be suffering from dementia to lash out physically at someone (let's put it this way - I wouldn't want to be in prison with O.J. right now). So it's entirely possible that Don Cornelius could have done what he is charged with doing.

in Sugar Water: White Men Can’t Believe I’m Talking About Wesley Snipes Again on Popdose
that was a funny read. Poor Wesley, lol. According to my fellow Highbrid Nation blogger Juan, Wesley cut 15 million dollars in checks hoping to get a little mercy from the court but got nothing but the book thrown at him. Guess we won't be seeing a Blade 4 anytime soon. Though I feel bad that his sentence was so harsh, I also feel like if I have to pay taxes then so does he.

I read that the three checks Snipes presented to the court totaled $5 million, rather than three checks totaling $5 million each. But his ten-minute statement to the court, in which he apologized for his mistakes, never once mentioned the word "taxes."
Snipes's lawyers will appeal, and I'm sure his sentence will be reduced before he goes to prison, or he'll be released early. He has no prior criminal record. But his three-year sentence does make you wonder: would a white actor have received the same punishment?
