Gambling laws need change in SC  info@islandpacket.comJuly 9,
2013   I read with dismay the editorial on July 7 ("Pay closer
attention to gambling proposal") regarding the gambling laws in
South Carolina.  I happen to be one of those women who like to
play mah-jongg and canasta in Sun City Hilton Head. We have
three beautiful clubhouses with gorgeous views and we cannot use
the rooms to play games such as mah-jongg because, even though
we don't play for money, the game uses dice.  I find it
ridiculous that we can't enjoy a game of mah-jongg in our
clubhouse when there is no money involved. How absurd.  My
friends and I have written to both state Rep. Bill Herbkersman
and state Sen. Tom Davis, asking them to amend state gambling
laws so that we can get together to play games when there is no
money involved and no alcohol.  I just can't understand what the
fuss is about. Don't the police have better things to do?
