If you can't understand that, then you're not going to do a very good job of representing your point of view to a wider audience and frankly I don't want you representing me as a member of the poker society.
You are for regulation I am unsure. Mostly I would just like the government to leave my freedoms alone.
If regulation ultimately does happen I would not be against it if it were under the right conditions. You calling for the card rooms to crawl at the feet of the government and beg for forgiveness is ridiculous.
Americans buy goods from billion dollar companies all the time without regulation. We live in a world wide economy.
Ok, you got me on the whole splitting hairs thing. ISP blocking is not common as you seem to be suggesting. It will indeed be argued as a free speech issue given that playing online poker is not an illegal activity.
Better?
