Any attempts to further diminish my rights to play poker will be fought long and hard. I would gladly donate my time and my capitol to election of any opponent of an elected official who had the nerve to restrict my right to play poker.
If the senator supports criminalizing the playing of poker he has crossed the line of departure for his policial demise. GOOD RIDDANCE.
