Hey, what about the gambling thing?
I imagine children aren't allowed in casinos because they haven't earned any money to spend there and because underage gambling is illegal. Gambling is an adult activity.
Why is that an adult activity? A child can place a quarter in a slot machine - my child has been placing quarters in gumball machines since he was about 2. I mean unless there is a better answer than the one you just gave there is no reason it should be illegal if a parent wishes to give a child some money to play with. Right?
Are you sure the issue isn't a little deeper than that - as to why our government may be protecting our children from gambling?
And does this mean that it would be okay for businesses to also say muslims are not allowed into their establishments as well? I mean we could argue perhaps an even greater issue to comfort level here. Just curious how far this can be taken is all?
