[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1268025, member: 17969"] YOU are a silly man with too much time on your hands, but not enough to be honest with your posts. This from the justice department. ""The agreement defers prosecution for criminal violations of the Lacey Act and requires Gibson to pay a penalty amount of $300,000 and a community service payment of $50,000 to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to be used to promote the conservation, identification and propagation of protected tree species used in the musical instrument industry and the forests where those species are found. Gibson will also implement a compliance program designed to strengthen its compliance controls and procedures. [B]Gibson will withdraw its claims to the wood seized in the course of the criminal investigation, including Madagascar ebony from shipments with a total invoice value of $261,844.[/B] The government will decline charging Gibson criminally in connection with Gibson’s order, purchase or importation of ebony from Madagascar and ebony and rosewood from India, provided that [B]Gibson fully carries out its obligations under the agreement, and commits no future violations of law[/B], including Lacey Act violations."" Again, just like the birth certificate thread .. way off base.. Sorry bro, I tagged you out. TOS. [/QUOTE]
