Re: The ISP's aren't going to do anything It is hypocrisy; however I see no evidence to support your contention that gambling restrictions exist to placate the religious right.
States with commercial, privately owned, non-Indian casinos include states such as Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, Mississippi, South Dakota and (ahem) Pennsylvania. Minnesota has legal horse race gambling and poker in a politically conservative suburb 30 min south of Minneapolis.
If "bible thumping fundies" and "religious nutjobs" were the source of gambling restrictions as you stated, I seriously doubt that such states would have chosen to allow casino gambling on top of state lotteries. |
