Cashing Stolen Bellagio Chips -Poker News - Page 11 - Poker News

Yeah I gave him an interview. And a tv news interview last night for Vegas abc station. Honestly I don't think posting here hurts the case. I'm not a criminal, I've been open and honest in dealings both on 2p2 and with law enforcement and the media. The only difference is that I don't mind sharin info with the 2p2 community. You guys have helped my poker game a lot and there are a lot if solid people on these forums.. You guys deserve to know what happened on my end.

I'm no vigilante but I do carry concealed so any confrontation that might arise from my openness in the media will not be as easy as picking off a random witness. That being said I think the risk is Pretty remote. Call me naive but that's my gut feeling.

unlucky for u that there is future risk for your involvement. took a lot of guts and many people wouldn't have done the same thing in your shoes

i'm an anti-gun new yorker, so salt my statement-

i dont think your openness with the 2+2 community makes you any sort of a target, but saying you carry a concealed weapon does imo.

i dunno. guns are bad.

Being stuck in a house that is getting rob and not having a gun is bad. Esp. if you have a family to protect

Or in this case, walking around with your information out, within a criminal case and not being protected is bad.

Guns are bad, when bad people have them. To counter that, I like having one myself.

i dunno i seriously disagree with your post.

there's not much data out there (read: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/26/us...fleassociation) but i would imagine that having a gun makes you less safe.

having a gun while your house gets robbed seems to be like a great way to get shot yourself. if you are concerned about protecting your family - seems to me you're more likely to get out alive if you comply instead of shooting across your house trying to miss your family and hit the bad guys.

agree to disagree. Don't think anyone's going to change their mind and everyone else will be bored to death with stats on gun violence.

To be continued.. I spoke with 2 lawyers tonight and am on the warpath. My family has paid taxes and followed the law for several decades. Now my cooperation puts their existence at risk.

Once again an example of helping out the man, just to get ****ed in return. Sigh.
