FBI closes down Full Tilt, Pokerstars, and Absolute

Hmmm, I thought the bullshit law the United States created only prevented US banks from processing American online poker transactions. How can the FBI close down the sites themselves? Why punish the players while your doing your "investigation"? The PLAYERS did not do anything wrong, THE BANKS DID!. Go after the banks, not the poker players. Just another example of how the U.S. manipulates the laws/system to benefit certain interest groups and pockets. Did you see the fines involved with these so-called "crimes" that they have charged the defendants with? Just goes to show you its all about making money, not "justice". I have seen less sentence's/fines given to RAPISTS and MURDERERS. Why is it that no other countries are trying to shut down these poker sites? They must not have as many religious nuts trying to force the government into going after poker sites. Maybe they also are not as greedy as our government is. Amazing how we have LEGAL gambling in certain states because it's taxed. Oh, and the thousands of sports gambling sites? I guess that form of gambling is OK with the FBI. hmmmm, As soon as the U.S. see's that a large portion of money is being exchanged between INDIVIDUALS and they are not getting "their share", they create laws making it illegal. Really no different than the mob extorting money from people/businesses. The only difference is people end up in jail, not burried in the desert. HEY AMERICA, you want "your share"? Change your "moral values" like you did with alcohol (prohibition) and make poker legal. I don't see any poker related deaths on the roadways, but a SHITLOAD of DUI related deaths. I guess making something legal(alcohol) which has the serious potential of killing innocent people, is OK with you as long as your getting rich off of it. While your at it, lets make ALL DRUGS legal. You will get rich, and PUT MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS OUT OF BUSINESS. Than I can go down to Mexico and play poker without worrying about being killed.
