You get the DoucheCanoe award for defending someones choice to defraud the 9/11 Memorial Fund. From every myself as well as every veteran and first responder worldwide: F*ck You!
I'm not defending anything, and I don't know how you got that impression. He did a bad thing, and the question is if he can be held accountable for it. Bad people get away with horrible stuff all of the time. It doesn't make it right.
Shocking how stupid people are. Here lets draw it in crayons for you:
1. Hey I got an idea, lets bake cookies and sell them and give the money to a 911 charity
2. Good idea. Let's give them 100 dollars.
3. Big Advert: Come Buy Our Cookies, Proceeds to be given 911 Charity. 100 dollars worth
4. Success.
5. So how much did we nett after giving the charity their 100 dollars like we promised
6. 10,000 $
7. GAWSOME using 911 always gets those suckers out there, lets go detail the Maserati, Ferrari and teslar with the cash!
GET IT NOW YOUR STUPID DUNCE?
Well, the difference here is that the money from the cookies went into the same wallet that their mom used when cashing her paycheck. Then the mom overspent her paycheck thinking there was more money for her to use than there actually was. So the charity is owed $10,000, but that $10,000 doesn't exist anymore. Who's at fault? The kids who put it in the same wallet? I imagine that would be some kind of accounting negligence. The mom who overspent (Josh)? It would be hard to show that she knew that some of the money in her wallet had already been promised to charity.
A person with ethics would make up the difference, but is it a crime not to?
we introduced the legendary memorials hashelts BEFORE we said anything about charity. then we anounced that the money would go to charity, when i tghouht we sold 10000. we made a mistak with the announcement. what is wrong??
