Mason,
Though I look forward to hearing what 2+2 has to say, can you explain to everyone here exactly what good a statement will do us NOW?

Since Mason brought it up. All people like Senator Frist have to do to support their point about gambling corrupting young people is post a link to the forums and have people see the avatars like yours; read the hateful comments about the government and it's leaders; go to OOT read the stuff about drugs, hookers, deragatory comments about women; etc. You want to influence your Congressman? Please don't tell them your screen name and have get a gander of your avatar. You made a post about being more politically aware. Start by ridding yourself of your avatar.

great post!

i guess i'm naive, but i thought we lived in a country where having an insulting avatar, talking about hookers and blow, and otherwise expressing yourself was still ok.
this poker legislation just reminds me of how repressed and puritanical everyone is around here.
obv. you have a point about the image we present, but i want to live in a country where i can be myself.
the things you talk about are small. we should concentrate on organizing, and making logical arguments in favor of online gambling / doing what you want w/ your money for non-harmfull entertainment purposes.
