Gentlemen
BSA has stood up and said that, gambling, of any type is inconsistent with the Aims and Methods of Scouting, whether it is legal or not in the area that it is done, and is therefore unacceptable.
Accepting money from an activity that is inconsistant with OUR ideals is inappropriate whether the deed is done by the unit or someone else.
This is no different than accepting a donation from the Drug Lord of a country where drugs are legal.
Right is right, wrong is wrong, and gambling is a vice that is justly illegal in most areas whether we like it or not.
