    Where did I argue? I posted an article which reads better than the tweets that you apparently appreciated me finding for you. I then posted a snippet which said that the parliament wants money laundering to be investigated. No where did I argue with you. No where did I say Trump laundered money. No where did I call you a name. No where did I insult you.

    The above article states his resorts aren't turning a profit. Makes sense why he'd resort to tactics like this.

    It says they want to investigate money laundering. It isn't clear or doesn't really attempt to explain what the money laundering is.

    Im criticizing the article and you won't find any money laundering in thd article either because there isnt any

    Secondly;

    Thats all i wrote and you start crying how you graciously provided the article. Just because you were gracious i cant disagree with the article?

    The article says money laundering but all the details of accusations are tax evasion issues

    I wonder what Scottish prison is like?

    I guess it's easier on all parties concerned to be ass-raped with the kilts.

    Prison food story(s):

    I worked in prisons for three years as a field network technician for the in-prison medical clinics. The first day I was at my 'home base' prison the nurses asked me if I wanted to eat at the officer's commissary. The selling point was that it was free. I had eaten a big breakfast and it was early so I declined. I went about my work and they came back a bit later and told us we didn't miss anything, 'The fish cubes had hair in them again'

    Needless to say, I didn't eat there, ever. I didn't even use the restroom there.

    About a year later, the same nurses were b****ing about the commissary being closed down when they went. The reason? The cooks were caught drinking out of the measuring cups and stirring the gravy with their arms, again.

    The hepatitis rate in prison is around 25%. That's just one of the fun viruses you can get by ingesting.

    The typical order of progression is:

    1. Discuss concern about potential crime
    2. Investigate said potential crime
    3. Announce results of investigation

    Scotland is at step 1 currently. You're already at step 3.

    I laughed way to hard at that one.

    It's the thing you garnish with pubes before you eat.

    Yeah, its ****ing gross in there. Not even a top reason not to go, but it's one of the many. I would get a norovirus every four months like clockwork, and I was super clean and careful. Another crazy thing is that while most of the nurses were fugly, there would be the occasional hot one. I couldn't figure it out. I saw some prisoner-employee relationships too.

    I worked in TYC for awhile and that was happening between female guards and the kids a lot.

    Agreed but there are details about the tax evasion. Its not just this story. I understand that this was brought up at Scotland's Parliament but in all the insiuation of Trump and money laundering from the past there are no real laundering charges/accusations
