What? These "outstanding citizens" were all part of the system in place, of the clean and upstanding, and nobody did anything about them for all this time? What, did they also do their own background checks on themselves? This is unreal.

These guys are good people. Why is it illegal to have a good time if the government doesn't get a kick back? Hold Em.....wow what a crime. Thanks for not busting the bowling alley murderers or all the drug dealers on Hadley street. At least you got the poker players!!!

Well, we can't focus on money laundering or drug dealing. We like going after the easy ones that make it look like we are doing something positive for the community. All the money launderers and drug dealers are under surveillance or in witness protection in hopes of catching THE BIG FISH. It always ends up like the Big Fish stories where the 7 foot catfish got away at Young Park.

Let's wake up. If it isn't blatantly obvious, these guys never find a thing or do anything. The focus is parking tickets, speeding tickets, littl shit gamblers, insurance tickets, etc.

Sincerely,

Big PITO

Otherwise you'll end up feeling confused, tired and tearful.
