The State got Chippy's: mywebtimes.com/archives/ottawa/display.php?id=482203That's big trouble as the machines were not being run by the state! While I know it's illegal to have the gambling, doesn't the state have bigger fish to fry? People aren't shooting each other over football tickets they bought at some Streator bar! On the other hand, people are getting shot in record numbers in Chicago. There's drug use across the state that is killing people, etc.

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time. He knew he had illegal machines and didn't care about the risk.

Someone must have failed to pay off the right person(s) down at the state revenue department.

What sucks is that I would love to have a couple of those machines in my business. Have you seen some of the revenue that these bars in town have been making off these machines?

I've been saying, every school should have a gambling parlor connected to it.

I've been saying, every school should have a gambling parlor connected to it. 34 bears, Gambling devices should only be permitted in the hallways of schools. The State of Illinois' share should only be sent in after each distirct keeps what is needed to fund the "mandated programs" and pay into their own self managed fund to pay for current and past teacher's and employee's pensions and health care benefits promised. It may be a few years before the State of Illinois receives anything, but somehow things get lost in the mail, when the funds are sent to Springfield. g
