OMG Bush is going to do a good thing.

Hmm just further evidence that we are not really free and that this is not the most free nation in the world.
 
Absolutely BF. Once the door was opened a hundred years or so ago....

If most people are not aware it is already illegal to gamble in your own home for money. At least everyplace I have been.
So those who have been gambling in the internet are probably already violating the law.
 
Well I think it is a good thing. And yes it does protect Casinos, but it also protects those too weak minded to control their gambling addiction who do not live around casinos. A somone noted the online casinos seem to be offshore, so those who still have to gamble will be spending less money abroad and more here.
Perhaps not a great big good thing, but I will settle for what I consider any good thing from Bush.


Why is it the governments job to protect weak minded people?

I dunno, I guess because no one else will. Or perhaps to protect Republican voters ?
why do we have laws protecting the elderly and retards, children, etc. I sure don't agree with all of those for your own good laws, but a prescedent was long ago set.
 
Well I think the solution here is to deregulate gambling completely and keep it moving. I don't need big brother, I mean big business telling me I can't gamble online.
 
I agree Care. I think its painfully obvious. What really pisses me off is when you have congressmen on their high horses talking about how they "saved" us from the evils of internet gambling.

So you agree that this was a PAYOFF to their american casino contributors...and how do you know this... did you just pull it out of your a$$ or maybe the thin air? :D

And I think the govt should deregulate most things, but they are not going to.
Heck they already told you you can't gamble in your own home didn't they ?
Perhaps they should back track the gamblers from the gambling sites and prosecute under current laws.
 
I belive the government should not protect people from themselves, but if someone is forcing you into something or you have limited ability to stop them that is a different story!

I agree Alex. but the for your own good laws atre very numerous and if we have them should we be selective on them or more uniform ?

"The American Gaming Association, the industry's largest lobby, has opposed online gambling in the past but recently backed a study of the feasibility of regulating it."

see how easy that is. Someone asks you a question and you provide a source for your assertions.
 
No..sorry it doesnt work that way lady's ..if the link was provided in Care4all's original post than maybe. it was painfully obvious that you both were pulling your assertions out of your ass. And it is somewhat supported by this link in that it proves squat shit ...it is only an opinion.

By the way Lady T .... you didnt score any points in yesterdays discussion.... you dont score points by not admitting that the person you are in discussion with is answering your questions.. thats simply a classless way to hold a discussion... :pke:
 
they ONLY did this because they were paid off to protect the usa gambling businesses....

the internet gambling done by the usa are with foreign casinos

this was a PAYOFF to their american casino contributors...

what you dont think that bill to make it illeagle for banks to transfer funds for unlawfull online gambling is a good thing... wouldnt that benifit lawfull online gambling here in the us and elsewhare ? wouldnt it help our casinio's ? do they not help stimulate our economy that so many say is in the dumps.


i am sure that gambling lobyist fought for this... why wouldnt they ? but i also fail too see where this is bad... or do you think gambling should be outlawed totaly ?

Apparently you're still sore on being called out for pulling numbers out your a$$ yesterday. I'm flattered actually that you ego was so hurt that you had to rehash the thread in a completely unrelated thread 24 hours later. Kudos to me for handing you your a$$.

This topic isn't new. Its been discussed before. There are many links that substantiate an assertion that the casino industry is against this and has fully supported this measure since it was proposed. I'm sure even you are capable of googling.

Now please: man-up and either do the reasearch and give me a reasonable derivation for the 33% you originally stated or explicitely state that its a complete guess pulled from your @$$. Otherwise I'll consider you thoroughly owned.

Who the hell are you to tell somone they are classless, and decide what the rules are for when someone supplies a link?

And what on earth gave you the idea anyone here is trying to score points with you?? Did your mommy tell you that? Well, mommy Klaatu doesn't post here, and most of us don't give a shit you pontificating whiner.

Thanks Care! Of course he pulled it out his ass. He's obviously still embarassed about it, which is why he brought it up today in this completely unrelated thread.

Now.....Ladies, what should I do with my new Klaatu that I own?

When the ownage is that bad, I find that men tend to attack women's femininity, class being a part of that. When I hear things like that I consider it a job well done.
