They’re in the Bingo Halls
By Redbeard alerts me to a crucial victory in the War on Terror, one that is happening in my own backyard.
Kentucky has been awarded a federal Homeland Security grant aimed at keeping terrorists from using charitable gaming to raise money.
The state Office of Charitable Gaming won the $36,300 grant and will use it to provide five investigators with laptop computers and access to a commercially operated law-enforcement data base, said John Holiday, enforcement director at the Office of Charitable Gaming.
The idea is to keep terrorists from playing bingo or running a charitable game to raise large amounts of cash, Holiday said.
Five laptop computers and access to a law enforcement database cost $36000? Ain’t federalism great?
