Being a resident in WA, it scares me to think what type of police state or 1984 type system the state government would use. This law is completely contradictory because gambling is legal in WA state. There are casinos everywhere, which the government taxes to make money. Obviously this law was passed to eliminate internet competition which is not taxed. America has the best government money can buy... What scares me is how they intend to enforce this law.
