It should be antiicipated that the Internet gambling will be approved next year pressured by the Antigua success at the WTO which sanctions copywrite of DVDs and the force of the European Commission Report.

You stated that Focus on the Family is an organization that ‘works to strengthen family bonds’ when in reality it is a right wing extremist organization founded by talibangelist Dobson. These vermin seek to impose their nightmarish vision of what our country should be on normal Americans. These people are so stupid that they really can’t come up with any original arguments against online gaming. ‘Terrorism’–give me a break!!

This site should look at Europe, where the legalisation of on line gambling hasn’t resulted in the problems this group surest.
In fact making on-line gambling regulated removes a lot of the issues such as the possibility of funding TERRORISM and ensures proper checks on sign ups, fraud checking, and a lot tighter market.

In a black market such as the US on-line gambling, there are no restrictions, no player protections.

Mr. Hills your attempt at ridiculous “slippery slope” fallacies are nothing short at an insult at a rational person’s intelligence. Scare tactics “Oh this could fund TERRORISM!” are falling on deaf ears. You fail to mention how you’ve gathered *any* of your statistics or name these “corruption cases” you’ve apparently found.

The truth is, you’re making up these statistics about addicted gamblers and are inventing these “white collar crimes” in countries where online gaming is legal.

Show up with some facts and I’ll start to listen.

Funding terrorism? More scare tactics from right wingnuts. Are you people nuts? Leave my rights alone. If I want to play online poker or my neighbor does it is no business of yours.
