As an American that would like to see more legalized gaming (on and offline), I've found this week's events with BETonSPORTS and Mr. David Carruthers very disheartening. Is this really our biggest problem right now? Is this even a problem at all? I gotta believe that the Red States needed a distraction - a bone to chew on - and this was it.

I really feel bad for David - sitting in an orange jumpsuit in a Texas prison. The week before he was explaining the importance of regulation - how bringing gaming (especially online gaming) into the world of regulation is a good thing for everyone. For operators, punters, the US government, and our tax base.

Don't eat the bologna David - that shit will kill you.

An American Hypocrisy? Bet on It.
