To lawmakers in Arizona, and throughout this great land. Can we please just stay out of the private business of the honest, hard working people of this country? Whether or not you think gambling is immoral, it should be the right of each individual to choose what he/she would like to do with their money in their leisure time. I'm a law abiding, tax paying citizen, and I, and others like me would like to maintain the ability to make online wagers on horse races around this country. In the grand scheme of things, there has to be many more important issues to concentrate your time and efforts on than whether Joe Citizen is making online wagers on horse races.

This is your chance to be heard.
I will continue to collect comments throughout the next week, so please be heard, even if you have not played any of the Arizona tracks. This is a golden opportunity for the online horseplayers to be heard, and could set a precedent that could be heard across the country into the future. Please post your comments, or at least your name and location to show your support...

Florida When I was at the U of A it was already hard enough to bet the pony's. Stupid simulcast schedule. This is unreal though and will hurt the racing business in Arizona.

Hb 2694.....
Is disturbingly UNFAIR! To equate the placing of a wager on a horse race, dog race, or any sporting event for that matter, with committing such crimes as a sexual assault, is beyond obsurd! It's about as wrong as wrong can get! What's next, if this allowed to pass?Maybe we should we lock up parking tickets offenders under the same statues as AX MURDERS? No, this bill is insanity, and should be killed BLACK FLAG DEAD!

See in Arizona even the money was too much to pass up in the end.
