Ban on electronic skill games in Virginia reinstated by state Supreme Court_我的网站

正能量

一 |     RICHMOND, Va. -- A ban on electronic skill games in Virgnia went back into effect Friday after the state Supreme Court vacated an injunction that allowed thousands of the betting machines to remain in gas stations, bars and conveniece stores.The injunction was issued by a lower court in an ongoing lawsuit that argues the ban is a violation of free speech. But a panel of three Supreme Court justices found that the suit is unlikely to succeed.“Although at times it is difficult to determine where a particular activity falls on the speech/conduct continuum, no such difficulty is present when the activity being regulated is gambling. We long have viewed gambling as conduct that may be heavily regulated and even banned by the Commonwealth as an exercise of its police powers," the panel wrote in its order.The games look and play like slot machines, though manufacturers say there is an element of skill involved.The General Assembly passed legislation outlawing skill games in 2020, but former Gov. Ralph Northam delayed it for a year to help the state raise money for COVID-19 relief efforts. The ban then took effect in 2021, but the lawsuit resulted in an injunction that allowed games already registered with the state's Alcoholic Beverage Control Authoirty to continue until the issue is resolved.The lawsuit is now set to go to trial in December.。    

美国前总统特朗普在争取椭圆形办公室回归的征程中,毅然站出来为北达科他州州长克里斯蒂·诺姆背书,盛赞其为“非凡人物”。诺姆州长近期因自传《没有回头路》中披露的惊人举动——亲手结束了一只幼犬和一只山羊的生命而饱受各界舆论冲击,但这并未影响特朗普对其的高度评价。
在与克莱·特拉维斯和巴克·塞克斯顿的播客访谈中,特朗普坚定维护诺姆,表示:“诺姆州长真的很出色。诚然,过去一周对她来说充满了挑战。”
对于诺姆书中提及的敏感内容,特朗普阐述道:“人们对于她处理狗狗的方式感受各异,这取决于各自背景和立场,但无疑是个沉重的故事。她经历了一段艰难时光,我们都曾有过这样的时期。”
特朗普似乎在暗示诺姆或许未能全面审视其著作的内容,他说:“直到最近,她都表现得十分出色。这次她遭受了重击,有时候出书,你依赖他人执笔,可能没仔细审阅每一句,你也可能有代笔,但他们这次似乎没有帮上太多忙。

诺姆还因书中涉及与朝鲜领导人会面的虚构情节而陷入解释的泥潭,这无疑对她在特朗普副手名单上的位置构成了负面影响。
面对舆论风暴,诺姆选择在社交媒体上正面回应,利用这一波关注推广新书。她提到了最近不得不对家中养了25年的三匹马进行安乐死的经历,并在推文中宣传道:“如果你渴望更多真实、直率且不拘泥于政治正确的故事,让媒体为之哗然,请预购《没有回头路》。”
然而,诺姆的行为遭到了动物权利倡导者的强烈谴责。

三 | 善待动物组织的科琳·奥布莱恩严厉批评:“大多数美国人珍爱他们的宠物狗,我们质疑一个因狗的正常行为而选择终结其生命,而非尝试教育或寻找愿意负责的新家的州长是否理智。

四 | 诺姆州长显然缺乏教育、协作、妥协和同情这些基本的政治素养。”

动物福利行动的韦恩·帕塞尔也对此表示异议:“诺姆州长对一只幼犬采取极端措施,仅仅因为正常的幼犬行为,这是不合理也不人道的。如果她无法照顾动物,应当寻求帮助或转交有能力的家庭。

五 | 养狗需要耐心和爱心,数百万美国人深爱着他们的狗,他们难以接受对一只年轻母狗的残忍行为。”

在争议与支持并存的声音中,诺姆州长的选择无疑引发了关于领导品质、动物权利与公众道德的深度讨论。
