Re: Online gambling chief arrested while switching planes
LOL! Sensetive issue I guess [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] yeah, I just recognized the avatar and figured GGamble must have restarted his account for some reason. Avatars can be cool. A lot of people rotate through avatars based on whatever they find funny in a given week. Others, myself included, have one avatar that we use that makes us more recognizable - which is why I figured you were GGamble.

Re: Online gambling chief arrested while switching planes
God forbid that the US gov't arrests the terrorists while entering the country!
Are we going to redeploy our law enforcement resources to arrest all of the personnel and dismantle the operations of all the internet gambling sites, even though it is legal in the countries where they are based? If they really want to protect us how about rounding up all the illegal immigrants of middle eastern descent; they sold me my lottery tickets in NYC. Osama-Bin Laden is laughing his ass off over this hipocrisy.

The U.S. has become the most imprisoned nation in world history with 2.2 million people serving at least one year in a state or federal institution. China, which boasts of having one of the world's most notoriously intolerant government, holds 500,000 fewer prisoners than the U.S. with four times the population.

Also China also regularly executes more than 10,000 people per year, although exact numbers are unknown.

Re: Online gambling chief arrested while switching planes
Exactly ... I would take a bullet to the head rather than spending 5 years in jail for online gaming or non violent drug offenses ... and the US has some of the harshest prisons in the world ... especially for a well developed country. The majority of people who go to jail in the states will be back in jail in no time. In other countries like Canada and Europe the return to jail is much much lower because of much better living conditions in jails ...
