As I read it there is an investigation going on and it is said “Likely” the Federal Foreign corrupt practices act, NOT that he did violate it.
Now laffy unlike you and your pinko lover boys,(in your beloved Moscow or Havana or where ever your allegiance is) here in the United States a person is INNOCENT until proven guilty.
So if anyone is proven guilty then the guilty should go to prison for the crime(s)
Since I do not support or condone that or any illegal activities I do not apologize to anyone for someone else’s crime or wrong doing.
Now go ahead and put your dishonest and misguided spin on it and have the last word. Also do not forget to show all of us your ignorance and call me a few names ….yeah and rollllllllllllllllll your eyes too.
prohibitions against bribing foreign officials; rather, LVS has said in a SEC filing only that it is likely that it violated the books and records, and internal control provisions, of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. These are civil violations, not criminal ones, and innocent until proven guilty has no application here. Plus these are violations by LVS, not Sheldon Adelson.
Having said that, Adelson is indeed under investigation by the DOJ for violating the criminal provisions of the FCPA and everything I have read indicates that he did order payment to a Macau lawyer- legislator of $700,000, when the pure legal services provided were a fraction of that. And he was warned by LVS counsel that the payment would "look like" a violation of the FCPA. So I do expect him to be charged and, at that time as you say, he will be deemed innocent until proven guilty at least by the jury, though not the rest of us.
The presumption of innocence applies only to the jury, not the rest of us.
Is I can sit here a link to a 1000 articles about Dems saying one thing and then breaking the law.
You could link to a 1000 articles about Repubs saying one thing and then breaking the law.
Everyone on the board knows this (well, obviously everyone except you).
To use your own words, you said
I just like rubbing your face in it that you're scum.
Interesting thing to say about someone you have never met and know nothing about except for some exchanges on a web site. But then again, this is what one would expect from someone with a childish mentality
You are liberals that like to paint with broad brushes.
Like children, you see one example and therefore think everything is that way.
As adults, I and the other posters realize this fact already and try to spend our time debating policies that affect the country, politicians and their positions, and why we believe they are right or wrong.
Meanwhile like children you point at shiny objects, in this case articles that make you feel good, and see, "see, I told you so, they are all like that".
Like children, your nativity is cute, at times embarrassing, but like most children, you are not to be given any real credibility or concern.
based on the childish tone of your response and the fact you had to so quickly resort to name calling, I would say my characterization of you was spot on...
Here is a better concept you should try, GROW UP...
I believe I have better things to do with my time then link a thousand articles, and brother, if you have that kind of time and so much of your life revolves around this board, I can only pity you....
