Poker players protest government seizure

So I chose this article because I have an interest in poker. This guy named Shaun is an online poker player that is trying to get people to get involved in government issue. Such as health care concerns for himself. Now he is everywhere, on facebook, president Obama townhall and youtube. Justice Department cancelled three major online poker sites and argues that it should be a freedom to play online. This Shaun Poland guy is online 60hours to 70hours a week. He makes web designs for poker. "Just because it's not important to many people, doesn't mean it's not important to some, and not extremely important as a matter of principle," says Charles Nesson. But there's no federal law that bans people from playing online poker. And while the Justice Department takes the view that Internet gambling is illegal, no court has settled the question of what is illegal and what is not. He sometimes win real money online. I think the government should allow gambling.
