P 24 P 1 The Tragedy of Blame Buzz‘s Notes It is time for everyone to stop blaming each other for the horrible shooting tragedy that occurred in Tucson, Arizona. The national TV news media continues interviewing both the political Left & Right for their answers to this mayhem. Both sides have blamed each other in an indirect way, for causing this atrocity. The media then intensifies this ugliness and pushes for more news worthy statements. I understand that a congresswoman 24 Hour Tow Service was severely wounded, but to spin this and relish in the bickering between political par- 202 W. Pike St. - Cynthiana, Ky. ties is a tragedy. Shame on you for pursuing this avenue during such a grievous time. (859) 235 - 0004 The only person responsible for the shootings of 19 people (6 deceased & 13 recover- Automotive Specialists ing) is the gunman himself. He is a loner, a twisted outcast of society and he is purely evil. When people become malevolent, they lose their ability to reason and they strike out viciously. At that point there is nothing anyone can do to stop them. In today's world, we tend to affix blame to someone or something else. No one wants to take responsibility for their own actions! We will torture ourselves for blames sake, asking the question, Why did no one recognize this mans symptoms? Here are the facts, no one did!

Our news media should have reported this without the bickering political interviews. They lost their way and slanted the news for their own agenda, thankfully in this in- stance, that has backfired. We as people understand that our political system did not cause Weather Predictions from the Old Farmers Almanac ( Valley ) this tragedy, neither did anyone else.

I have accumulated two homes and have my own [email protected] personal bank accounts, which I have had for over ten years. I have around $75,000 in my accounts. We have a joint account with around $15,000 and other assets that we have built up in the last 2 years like vehicles, no joint real estate. My question is, If the IRS or State Revenue Dept. come after him can they take my personal property, money and my homes to satisfy his tax debts. I have always paid my taxes on time, to both. He is now paying on an agreement plan to both, but I am still worried about my things. What can I do?

Answer: Immediately, you should contact a good tax attorney and explain to your attor- ney the exact nature of things. Under IRS Code 6015 your assets could be protected as an innocent spouse, under a separate liability or equitable relief theory. You would generally have 2 years from the filing of an action against your property to file for removal of their lien. As long as your husband stays current on his payment plans, the IRS & State are probably not going to come after your assets. If, however, he does not, they will most likely come after you. Assets you acquired (pre marriage or after separation) should not be available for them to satisfy their tax lien, but you will have to prove your case!
