NJ COPS SHUT DOWN GEEZER 10¢ BINGO

Police State          TEXT “ Is this the worst person in America?* [...] That former employee — nicknamed by me just now as the Elder Skelter — told New Jersey’s gaming commission that “illegal activity” was going down at Pleasant View — an underground bingo game with a 10-cent per card buy-in and a three-card maximum— New Jersey’s Legalized Games of Chance Control Commission made the decision to drop the hammer.

It's what happens when bureaucrats are threatened with shrinkage.  *No.  That would be Barack Obama ”
