Legalize full on gambling?

Kind of but not really with the EBT card. Camden just shut down a indian for EBT scams. The bastard was running it as groceries (in a gas station no less) for hundreds of dollars at the time, but no items were bought. He would then split the money with them.

Misunderstood me. They can spend all the cash they have on whatever they want, but if they are going to pee it away on lotto tickets, schlitz, and smokes, they ought not have an ebt card for groceries.

I agree. I could fill up pages with what I see in this store, and how our money is spent.

After much thought I vote NO. I do not want to have it here, or what it would bring with it.

[Simple Man]

NO.

And it's got not one damn thing to do with my morals or imposing them on others. It's for one reason and one reason primarily - I'M TIRED OF THE HALFBACKS AS IT STANDS NOW and certainly don't welcome the others that would come with the gambling scene. They negatively affect MY quality of life and they are EXACTLY the ones that would STAY if we had one more thing that screams "tinted visor", "OBX stickers" or "South of the Border". Have you ever been to Dover, DE or one of the Indian casinos like Mohegan Sun or Foxwoods in CT? There are 50-70 year olds out the ass, all times of the day and night in those casinos that are practically chained to the machines clicking buttons just to listen to the bells and hoping like hell that box will spit just a few coins their way. TO HELL WITH THEM AND ALL THEY STAND FOR. Buncha damn miserable souls. And don't tell me I'm generalizing because I've seen enough of 'em to say what I just said.

As far as it bringing revenue to the state, the juice just ain't worth the squeeze.

bring it on. If it was implemented right it could help out with the shitty roads and unlike the lotto money this could go to public schools. but then again, the government will be in charge of it so it will be fucked up.

how is it that bingo is all over the place? there is no difference between bingo and a game of cards.

it is funny how morality and emotion are played on both sides of the argument by both sides on most issues.
