Students should be concentrating on earning money from hard work,..... Internet gambling sends the message that earning money is fun and easy

These are my favourites. Classic examples of why the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The only way you can, or "should" make money is from hard work. Otherwise you are "bad" and should be racked by guilt for the rest of your life.
I bet she gives crap blowjobs too.

I bet when the frat boys at Purdue give this morally superior bee-otch two beers from the keg she's on the table top with her pants at her ankles inviting the school's starting five and linebacker corps back to the dorm for some "filmmaking". [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Good luck,
Matt

Govt. ban of personal freedoms, verification from the WTO, the cost to society, disregard of Rational argument (not the porn argument either), claim of immorality without basis for said immorality.

When will we understand that Academia is becoming another word for Communism?

Credit cards create more debt for college students than online gambling ever will, yet I don't see anyone trying to ban Visa cards.

whoever thinks that winning poker in the long term does not require hard work doesn't understand poker at all.

for society poker is very likely -EV as it is a negative sum game, the only people making money definetely are the institutions (read: casinos).

I am not saying that good players don't make money, of course they do, but the poker PLAYING population will always lose.

The girl is right poker probably shouldn't be played.

However if you buy that crap, people probably shouldn't be allowed to watch TV or play boardgames either.
