Agreed, for the record I'm in the get rid of it all camp. I have nothing against the tribe and the arguments against their recognition were flimsy at best. Just disappointing to see how normalized gambling has become. Vices are fine when they are treated as a luxury, but I grew up in the area and I know what the unfortunate reality is. There will absolutely be kids in the surrounding towns that get stuck in the poverty cycle because their parents are addicts. That's just how the world works and it's sad to see us washing the blood of the past off of our hands with the blood of the future.
