Yeah, I'm surprised they're not going after the porn industry. But I guess gambling has become pretty high profile over the last few years thanks to the explosion of Texas Hold'em. Too bad they're not more concerned about alcoholism and all the lives it destroys. I think that problem is a little more pressing than Internet gambling.
Nobody ever lost $200 at a poker game and then jumped in their car and killed a family of four.
But that's just me. Maybe I'm crazy.
