I vote for option 4. I can't understand how anyone could support banning private gambling to the point of being able to arrest people for having a weekly poker night.

nobody really believes that if there is no 'rake.'

ilikeverin obviously does as he expressed opposition to my fantasy politics proposition to completely ban any possibility of this happening.

You have a terrible habit of taking something that a poster has said or done that is somewhat related to a topic at hand and then making a few leaps and bounds and arriving at the conclusion that that person supports some other position that he has probably never actually explicitly declared support for.  Why can't you just let people speak for themselves instead of telling them what they do and don't think?

Expressing opposition to a proposition to completely ban the chance of something does not mean that you support enacting what would have been banned.  It means you might, but the jump between "might imply" to "incontrovertibly shows" is rather large.
