The article doesn't say they're buying them - but if they are, the fact remains that as I said, "the last thing a money launderer will do is call attention to the laundering enterprise with terrorizing violence. No support there for your anti-legalization Chicken Little-isms. "

I predict you will not answer what people who put money into businesses are called.
