An old science fiction novel The weapon shops of Isher Said, The right to be armed is the right to be free I read that a long time ago and it sounded right to me, but I have never really been pro-arms, what I am trying tosay is that the laws should favor people or the people (citizens) and not the government, Ronald Reagan said some thing like he had given the power or the government back to the people, but that is still not true.I am sure that this kind of government is not what the founding

Lantern ........yes and no. The territory claims of my people post date the Antarctic Treaty of 1959 . My people refused to participate in, and were not signatory to the Antarctic Treaty of 1959. No where on that Treaty will you find the name of Win d or any of my fellow countrymen. My homeland has now been over-run by aggressive foreign powers. All territory claims (including ours) were frozen by that Antarctic treaty 1959 and remain frozen to this day. Now the only reminder of our once pro... [ More ]

Winsumloosesum I guess we'll know soon. I will make my bet once I put some money my account (BUT I ALSO HAVE TO HIT TOO...LOL) Remember the other guy said that they do pay up but I'm a skeptical person yet I figure if they dont pay after a hit I may lose whatever but I will shame their name and reputation and even have some of my tech savvy hacker friends hack their site forcing them to lose business for a few days which is probably thousands of dollars.

Todd,Sorry for the confusion.I don't trust online gambling Web sites.The interesting thing is that they are using actual states lottery results not their own computer picks.The payouts are almost 90% better. The only issue is if you win do you get paid???If you live in England would it also be illegal??wsls

My country has long claimed diplomatic immunity on such matters. In the case of legal disputes.... over such arbitrary points such as taxation, illegal parking, over eating, and INTERNET gambling, the controlling authority has always been my homeland of ANTARCTICA. In recognition of my status and diplomatic immunity with regard to arbitrary, selective, enforcement of moral or legal codes on my person, they shall not be recognized. The controlling authority shall always reside with the National

This is a snippet of a piece I read on online gambling:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It's currently a very gray area...Some officials say it's against the law to wager over the Internet or telephone. Others say the illegal part is the gambling operation itself, if it's set up on U.S. soil -- which is why Web sites operate offshore in places such as the Caribbean, Latin America and Australia.

wsls,Your message is a little confusing. Are you trying to say that it is legal to play on such a site from the US? I hope not. I personally wouldn't be overly concerned, but anyone who plays from the US should understand they are taking a risk.The only 100% legit way to go is to play a real governmental lottery.

Is it legal to play even if the company is based in England. How many straight wins will it take to shut down the Lotto segment of this Web site?They have sports books.If you check the other thread it seems it is a legitimate privately held company.Ever want to play in other States?I would definitely check into this service before playing with real cash.It is gambling. If you play roulette you win $35.00 bucks on a $1.00 straight bet.Playing the Pick 3 your at 1 chance out of 1000 of winning.

They are running their own lottery, not buying tickets - so technically it's not legal in the USA.

Im eager to play to Lil Old Lady! I've seen my numbers hit in several states several times a week. If I could hit twice a month thats a big profit for me! But I wouldnt be convinced unless I saw 900 big ones sitting in my bank.

saw the post below about . I registered today. Is it to my understanding that these companies don't actually purchase tickets from the state lotteries but instead just pay you if your numbers hit? I mean 900 to 1 pay out when the state only pays 500-600 to 1 more than likely means that money comes out of their pocket. Otherwise I dont see a profit for them if they actually purchase the tickets and then give you 300 more than what the state already pays you.
