I believe a major problem we are facing is the fact that many judges in the US courts are complete retards when it comes to the internet. We all know that some of the senators firmly believe in the pipes and so forth, but the following judgement once again confirmed to me that there is little hope for the "war" against online gambling.

This is a stupid judgement!

Definitely. I can see where they would have an argument against him linking directly to the stream though. Damages? Yea right. Give them a penny and be done with it.

It's their own fault for having a stupid ass webmaster that doesn't know how to setup the server to redirect people to their main page if they're clicking a link that sends them to a direct link such as that.

Perhaps this is how the national defecit will be paid off. I believe a figure of 2009 was mentioned. Only got a snippet on UK News.

Ponderings....and musings...

As most know, I am a horse race enthusiast and love the ponies to the extent I play and watch them every weekend online in real time just as if I was there in flesh and blood.

Now, my thoughts are this. I deposit a few dollars online through the website into my account at the track through the webpage that loads exactly as I have done for the casinos. There are different options on this page to deposit, same as the casinos offers.

As I deposited the other day, I got to thinking, just what is different between the online horse betting and online casino betting.? I came to the conclusion of, absolutely nothing. But yet, I can deposit using a website (ladbrooks) and place a bet over the internet, through the "wires" or "pipes" if you like, and it's all legal!

Strange.....how one sees cherries (slots) as bad and hay (horses) as good...when it comes down to being exactly alike. It's all gambling on the WEB!

::::shaking head::: as I mosey over to sit in the corner to continue my ponderings.........>

The difference is the horse racing industry and the lottery's paid off Frist to exclude them in the online ban.

That is why the new Congress and Senate need to revisit this crap bill slid in the Port Security Act at the last minute and pull it. Why should americans be victimized by a EX Senator (Frist) because he made some $$$$ from the Christian base who have hated the idea of gambling and think it is a decaying factor and the horse racing and lotteries who paid to have him look the other way?????

The War Against Online Gambling

The US politicians can't balance a bank statement and that's a fact. Now we have yet another permanent debt to contend with, which they will be accounting for. The internet should be treated as international waters by sheer definition. Are cruise ships going to stop gambling onboard?

US citizens are not in the mood for anything that expands the government's authority and focuses upon the oppression of individual freedom. I think they are just trying to find work for the FBI because they are such a useless department of the government. September 11 revealed them to be incompetent, uninformed and unwilling to accept their failue to protect American citizens.

Americans are waking up and it's been a long time coming. Capital Hill has a 9% popularity today and that will not fly for long. Don't underestimate the American people.

Gambling laws belong under the authority of the state. The Feds taking jurisdiction over it is an absolute abuse of power. The proceeds they are staking claim to can nowhere-near cover the cost of the operation and legal fees. It will cost the American people billions if it is allowed to continue. This country needs new sources of income and no amount of posturing, demoralizing, or creative accounting will alter this fact.

My question is in all of this, I have seen nothing about any U.S banks being prosecuted for funding online gambling. My bank still allows me to use my account to fund,, as well as Chase bank allows it on credit cards. My bank also accepts wire transfers and charges me a fee with no questions. So how are they deciding who to prosecute? And will they ever try to prosecute us, the end users for gambling with our own money?
Wow, with our financial crisis you think the government would have better things to do,, like prosecuting all the crooks who have raped our financial system and left the taxpayers with the bills, as well as losing their own homes while they pay for the financial institutions.
Since gambling in my state is accessible in every city, via indian casinos, who also pay no taxes on their huge earnings, much like the financial institutions, I do not see what the difference is if I choose to stay home and gamble with an untaxed entity outside the country, I am sure it helps with global poverty, which helps everyone in the world. Global poverty is the number one topic according to Readers Digest. Lol Wake up politicians and quit regulating what we do in our own homes with our own money,
