Last story in the night report:

Too much cable TV has 10 different stations showing Poker!
A big fever!

All teenagers are into this! Kids get hooked!
One Parents says its good. Social skills improve.

Anti-Gambling activist against this. (Of course) Gamblers who will get addicted.

Poker is hitting high visibility if it is being shown on National News.

“Teenagers gambling is exactly the same as a teenager playing with a gun,” warns anti-gambling activist Jennifer McCausland. “It's a dangerous thing to do, sometimes the gun will go off.”

EXACTLY THE SAME

"Anti-gambling activist", now there's an oxymoron for you. Any activity in life is a gamble. Do these people not drive cars?

That's the weakest oxymoron ever.

They had a report this morning on the Today show about teens and poker. One mother that was interviewed said she was happy as she knew where her child was and what he was doing. She didn't seem all that worried about it. After the piece was shown they interviewed somebody who warned about the hazards of gambling and how statistically teens who gamble will also get into other types of trouble later on in life.
