Modernize South Carolina
May 11, 2009, 7:24 am (2 years ago)South Carolina is about to enter the up-to-date gambling world last week when a state Senate sub-committee endorsed 3 new bills, putting them forward to the entire House Judiciary Committee by a vote of 3 to 1. The bills aim to modernize old-fashioned and laws concerning raffles and card and dice games.
Festivity might be a bit early, but as the bills still require long time before a complete Senate vote is expected, and the dead line is approaching to the recent session.
“Right now, it’s against the regulation for a Monopoly game to be held in your own kitchen with your kids,” Senator Paul Campbell told local newspaper the Post and Courier. “We don’t wish to make criminals out of common, ordinary citizens. If we are able to abridge and yet stop organized gambling from getting a hold in South Carolina, then I believe it makes a lot of sense.”
