I recall reading an article recently where the US is in danger of being fined billions by other nations due to the banning of online gambling. If MA does, in fact, pass this, there may be many world-wide ramifications for the state and additional ones for the country.
Doesn't seem a very wise idea when we've already pissed most nations off. And please- 2 years for online gambling? I will never understand it. You can gamble at casinos, play the lotto, or play bingo for your local NPO, but have a poker game at home or play online and you're screwed.
State and federal governments need to stop overreaching their bounds on these issues.
Wouldn't it be a more effective hit to the website if instead of doing a real-world protest, users boycotted the use of Facebook for a period of time (i.e., a week), thus costing the company thousands of dollars in precious ad-revenue?
Seems like it may be more effective than standing around holding up a bunch of signs.

Damn. Guess I can't download it now. All my e-mails by default go out with the Google logo as their sig. -_-
I dunno, but he's freakin' hot. And those girls (and the car) ain't too bad either.
Well, there's 15 more people for the unemployment lines. Heh heh heh.
