No, and that's why I didn't see this issue as having to do with Indians
There was opposition to allowing a casino here. It wasn't going to be on a res, so the arguments couldn't have had anything to do with Indians. But ... If there are people with deep pockets who don't like Indians, and they're attacking casinos because of that, it would make sense that the organizations they fund would "exceed their mandate" so to speak and go after all casinos. -- Drew |

Not clear
In any time and place where you couldn't legally gamble, you could of course do so illegally. What does that have to do with whether casino gambling should be legalized, or whether opposition to casino gambling is an indirect attack on Indians? -- Drew |

if you go back to the top of the thread
I questioned why casino gambling needed to be curtailed. Later I then pointed out that is the one way that tribes could leverage income. My last point to you was that gambling will happen casinos or no. So once again, back to the top, why should the government force casinos to close?
