There are "gambling laws" in this country?
There are two OTBs within a four-mile drive of my place of residence...and there is a full-scale casino 9 minutes away. Local bars and restaurants have legally installed slot machines...and, as if all that weren't enough, there is even a place called "Stella's" that's opened up nearby...which is strictly a gambling parlor featuring five slot machines, thinly camouflaged by a very limited eating and drinking menu.
And yet...it is still illegal for me to invite a group of friends over for a night of poker...and I am breaking the "law" if I place a bet on my favorite team so I can watch the game at home with a cold beer.
And they call this "justice"...?
