"THEY'RE
GOING CRAZY"
Department
Of Justice Makes Arrest For Cyber Gambling
This
country that I love and consider the greatest
of all has lost
sight of what is good and bad Gambling on the
internet is bad? Yeah,
gambling on the internet is bad......But
anarchical information freely
available to any lunatic who wants to build a
bomb--this is O.K.
Recipes for kids to mix together and
experiment with some new drug-
-that’s fine? Let’s not forget the
political spearhead for online free
speech. Free raunchy pornography! There’s
decency for you.
Is this a joke? Gambling on the internet is
big business, and they
should get involved- not only for the purpose
of regulating it so that
all of us can do honest business, but the
potential for them to make
tremendous amounts of revenue!
Instead
they make rules that make no sense. The
transferring of money
is illegal if it is for offshore gambling. Can
I take my money and
deposit elsewhere like a casino in Vegas? Is
that O.K? Is it O.K.
if I transfer my state lotto winnings to a
bank that does business in
another state? I don’t know. I’am not an
attorney so the statute of
laws that exist, I will not concern myself
with.
This
is going to promote gambling in our society?
Gambling exists all
over in one form or another! Do state
lotteries promote gambling? How
about Church bingos? I don’t know.
"Oh,
this will cause dirty money to be
laundered." Ever consider that
if the government became a regulator of
licensed gambling rather than
an enforcer of illegal gambling, less dirty
money would exist? Perhaps,
I still don’t know.
What
I do know is that gambling doesn't damage
society. People find
ways to gamble. "Can I gamble here?"
Yes! "Can I gamble there?" No.
Go 12 miles offshore and that's O.K, but 11/2
and that's illegal? When
did locality become such an important issue of
legality?
"I
live in Florida so I can't gamble." Sure
you can ! Plan a trip to
the Bahamas- now that you're out of state,
it's O,K! I live in New York
so I can't gamble." Sure you can! Drive a
little bit to Connecticut or
New Jersey and find yourself an Indian
reservation. It's O.K!
Screw it-lets all just pack up and move to
Nevada.
The
politicians better wake up and explain to me
what's going on. If
I can't play legally on the internet......then
I may as well just call
up my local neighborhood bookie. |
