If the NFL, NBA, MLB, NCAA, Oregon, Nevada, Delaware and Montana are the morality police then, yeah.

Go watch "Casino" on Netflix and come back to the OT in a few hours.

The government will let you bet your money on the lottery with astronomical odds against winning, yet won't allow you to bet on something with relatively 50/50 odds.

Go figure.

Ridiculous that it's illegal anywhere, it's a victimless "crime"

Because a majority of the people in this state beleive that a 2000 yr old Jewish Zombie and his dad, who loves them, will send them into a pit of fire where they will suffer excruciating agony for all eternity if they don't force their morality on everyone else. That's why.
