Re: URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111 CROSSPOST
it seems that most people forget that 80% of online gambling is done from within the US. Hell yes this will have a huge impact.
Also, those folks have a voice too. Kill poker now and that voice will be much weaker in the future, in order to bring it back. The other contructive thing folks can do...is tell the people at the tables you are playing. Most players are totally unaware of this bill.

[ QUOTE ] I called Frist's (my senator) office and almost got into a debate with his staffer who answered the phone. Don't think I'm changing any minds over there. Justin [/ QUOTE ] what was his staffer's reasoning for attaching an internet gambling act to a port authority bill? [/ QUOTE ] He didnt answer directly of course... I said I was calling to voice my opposition of insertion of IG language into the Port Security Bill, etc. etc. Him: "I have duly noted that you do not support the enforcement of exisitng laws which make internet gambling an illegal activity." Me: "I said I oppose the attachment of the IG language to the other bill. The issue, and the overarching principle of regulation of internet usage is worthy of its own debate." Him: "This is Senator Frist's last two days as a Senator... Me (Interrupting): "Good." I didnt have time to debate him much, I was at work. Justin
