Morality... and how the rest of us use it!

My best friend's old college teacher told us about a man, just recently, that bought a VW from an auction, and after he drove it for a little while, he realized he couldn't get more than 2 gallons of gas into it. So he takes it to a mechanic, who finds $500,000 and 'X' amount of cocaine in the tank. The man promptly takes the money and drugs and turns it in to the police. *sigh*

In all honesty, I don't find that particularly moral, I find it very dumb. Alright, you coudl burn the cocaine if you want to be a good person, but givign it to the police?! that couldn't ever even convict someone. ever. Because the car had changed hands. So giving it to the police means it sits in a locker for like 7 years max, then is absorbed into the state. So wonderful. And you wonder what he got out of it?! Nothing. I mean CRIMESTOPPERS pays $500 on a TIP that something bad MIGHT happen. come ON!!! Now morally, most people might turn in the drugs, but the $?!

I would have just keep the 500 Grand and turned in the cocaine. How would anyone find out about the money? :sly:

what an idiot for turning in the money. wth was he thinking? yeah the drugs cuz if you keep them then somehow you might get caught with them and that's not cool. but c'mon, the money too? someone should slap his stupid ass

time to become a mechanic i think...

Could've bought a nice car with that 500,000

Bet ya there was probably more than 500,000 in that car and he just turned that sum in. If not then ya he is a dumb ass.

How do you hide $500,000? You can't just spend it, people will start to ask questions. HOWEVER if you find money and turn it in, and it isn't claimed (by someone who can prove it's theirs) you get to keep it after a set amount of time. Now on $500,000 I think that time would be a while, but I'd find out about that first. Plus, who's gonna go in and be like "Hey, did you find $500,000? Oh, no the drugs aren't mine, just the 500 grand." They can't claim it 'cause it would connect them to the drugs. Plus I think the story is bs. If it was a college professor he probobly just said it as an example.

Well first off.. yes you can hide 500K.. its easy, also you dont have to go on a shopping spree either, and also who the hell would suspect anything anyway? Unless you've been in trouble with the law alot to begin with.

How do you hide $500,000 and let nobody know about it? And all you have to do is spend enough money and the IRS will eventually start asking questions. Hell if you spend $10,000 in a year and the IRS doesn't know where it came from they'll start asking questions. Plus you have to pay off the mechanic. Now if you opened an off shore account, I could see it working easily.
And I'm not saying you have to go on a shopping spree, but we're talking about the government man. Next thing you know you'll have black helicopters circling your house and guys will be taking pictures of you from two miles away on top of a building that you don't even see and then one day BAM, you dissappear and you're never seen again.
Ok, not really, they'd just get you for tax evasion, you might have to spend a couple weeks or months in jail, pay the taxes, and keep the rest, but which one makes a better story?
The point is they can catch it. What happens afterward is only limited by your imagination, haha.

Eh.. i'd hold a crack party and be done with it.

A crack party and a huge orgy on top of a pile of money. Sounds good, when and where is this going down?

i'm telling. jk but you know what type of party looks like fun? swinger parties. i saw it on CSI. of course it'd be fun right until someone got murdered.

As soon as I get some chicken nuggets after I get that 500,000 dollars.

i'm addicted to them. i get them at least once a week, and always in the 10 pack. then i drive across the street for some yummy burger king fries.

Yeah screw the 5 ones or the 4, 99 cent ones. I always get the 10 pack too.. doesnt cost much more..

But no burger king fries, I usually go home after that and drink some Mountain dew.

How about a swinger crack money orgy?:grinyes: Damn, this just keeps getting more and more interesting. Ok, so someone PM me with the time, date, and place. By the way, I'm just kidding about all of this, and seriously would turn in everything and not do cocaine or cheat on a wife.

It must, after all how does it get across?

That sucks, me and Danielle were being serious.

Sorry, military... If someone who outranks me ever saw this (not that their's much of a chance of that) I could seriously get in trouble, and probobly never get promoted again.

hmm good point. and if you must turn it into an orgy, i suppose you can bring your wife. is she pretty? ugly people are a no-no

Oh and by the way, isn't cocaine grown in tropical environments? I would assume it would hold up well in hot weather.

what is cocaine anyways? don't be a smartass and tell me it's a drug either.

I'm not married. But adultery is actually still a crime in the military. Actually oral and anal sex are also illigal, so I could technically be arrested already, but I don't think those are enforced... I hope those aren't enforced... Ah crap...

A drug

Cocaine is a white powder (not trying to be a smartass) that people snort. All I know is it's expensive, it's addictive as a mf'er, and it will MESS you up.
DON'T DO DRUGS KIDS.

yeah but what's it made out of and where does it come from? not like i'm going to make some myself but now that we got to talking about it im intrigued.

Well if you click on the link there it tells you, Danielle.. :slap:

Dont make me go out of my way to bring you a helpful link then you dont click on it, not cool, dude.

but from what I have read it is gotten from a cocoa leaf.

By the way, it's a good thing I'm switching jobs soon 'cause if the IT guys saw me looking up "how to make cocaine" online they might think I'm some sort of messed up freak. Now I can just laugh at them. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA SUCK IT INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY GUYS!

I'm some sort of messed up freak.
i always knew the military did stuff to you...:shakehead

Are you in training to become a reporter? You completely took what I said out of context. I said "the IT guys saw me looking up "how to make cocaine" online they might think I'm some sort of messed up freak." Christ, at least quote me right.
Oh, and by the way, I'm a Marine. We have to be all KINDS of messed up. It keeps up the image and kinda scares our enemies.

i always knew the military did stuff to you...:shakehead

Oh well, im still going to the military.. unless something makes me change my mind.

What branch are you going to join? Oh, and just to clear things up:
People always say "you're brainwashed" if they don't agree with something I say. To which I always reply: "I know. But that doesn't change the fact that you're wrong."
Not that you guys are wrong about anything, just thought I'd throw that in.

Joining the Air Force.. I would go Army but it doesnt have jets..

Damn, I always show up too late for the orgies and cocaine parties

Joining the Air Force.. I would go Army but it doesnt have jets..
Just want to ask a queston;
Are you just basing your decision on which division had jets?
Just want to know.

Joining the Air Force.. I would go Army but it doesnt have jets..

Marines and Navy have jets too. And they actually get to help people on the ground rather than dropping bombs on Marines. I don't like the air force. Nothing against the individuals, just the branch as a whole. They run things differently and it doesn't make sense to the other branches. They're too easy on their own people, too quick to change for public opinion, and they rely way too much on technology rather than training and personal ability.
