Kentucky Online Gambling Ruling Sparks Need for Political Action

Casino Gambling Web, and expert analyst Gordon Price, is calling on all pro-freedom members of the United States, all sites who promote Internet freedom in the United States, and all other interested parties to promote contacting members of the US House of Representatives, as well as the Senate, to express strong disdain for the latest actions Kentucky has taken to seize control of over 140 online gambling related websites.

"It is imperative for those interested in upholding Internet freedoms in the United States to contact their representatives to urge action against anti-freedom legislation and other actions that prohibit personal freedoms, such as those taken by Kentucky," said Casino Gambling Web analyst, Gordon Price.

Pro-gambling governor, Steve Beshear, has issued an order to seize 141 gambling domain names in the name of protectionism. Beshear has stated that online gambling sites are a direct threat to profits of Kentucky's state-run casinos and horse tracks.

Kentucky is home to the biggest horse racing event of the year. The race is the second most bet on sporting event behind only the Super Bowl.

"Kentucky is upset that non-US gambling websites allow bets on horse racing, so in turn they are taking away the freedoms of all world-wide citizens, not just Kentucky citizens," Price said.

"This is an urgent situation in the midst of a much more urgent American financial situation, and the timing could see this situation overlooked by members of federal and state Congresses," Price said. "It is imperative that all website owners promote to their visitors to contact their representatives to express their disdain for such freedom prohibiting actions.

"Americans are perilously flirting with allowing their government to dictate to them what actions they are allowed and not allowed to do on the Internet. One other country does this to its citizens, China."

Casino Gambling Web completley supports its analysts positions and advises all sites on the Internet to support this movement.
