Advertising Against the Gambling Ban in Main Stream Media
September 18, 2009
The Safe and Secure Internet Gambling Initiative have decided to start advertising in newspapers who target the “regular people” in order to put a stop to the online gambling ban. The adverts will be found in The Huffington Poker, The Washington Post and Politico.
“As Congress searches for ways to pay for health care reform and other worthy programs, it should end the unsuccessful prohibition of Internet gambling and start collecting taxes on the billions in revenue currently lost to unlicensed, offshore gambling operators,” said Jeffrey Sandman, spokesperson for the Safe and Secure Internet Gambling Initiative.
One of the adverts is going to remind the people of another failed ban which was alcohol. In that ad there will be pictures of alcohol smugglers who are rolling out barrels of alcohol while saying, “Stop the ban! It didn’t work with the alcohol, and it will not work with internet gambling.”

Hope they get rid of this flippin ban once and for all. It’s retarded of the government not to take advantage of all the gambling companies that are ready to start paying tax in the US.
It’s not like the current ban have stopped anyone from playing online poker or betting on sport events either. It’s just a joke.
