Another Racist Casino Opens
- The government approved race of American Indians opens yet another casino in Northern California.
- But if your heritage is Asian, African, Hispanic or European then the government says you are not allowed to open a legal business in California. . . . but move a few miles east to Nevada and all racial groups are welcome to open a gambling business.
On Tuesday, the 1,300-member tribe of the Federated Indians of the Graton Rancheria
will open its Graton Resort & Casino, an $800 million development in the Sonoma County wine country. Situated next to Highway 101 in Rohnert Park, it will be the closest tribal casino to San Francisco and is expected to instantly rival Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Lincoln for supremacy in the California gambling market.
Industry analysts say the new development – with 3,000 slot machines and 144 gambling tables beneath chandeliers that glitter with 24,000 pink glass flower petals – may transform gambling in California, intensifying competition among high-end resorts and the pressure to build casinos near major highways and urban centers.
The tribe reached agreements with Rohnert Park and Sonoma County to pay more than $400 million over 20 years to offset impacts of the casino. In 2012, Gov. Jerry Brown signed a gambling compact, in which the tribe agreed to pay the state 15 percent of net casino winnings during the first seven years of operation and 12 percent in ensuing years reports the Sacramento Bee.
“This is the bear – no, make that the $800 million gorilla,” said Ken Adams, a Reno-based casino industry analyst. “It certainly is going to grow the total amount of gaming revenue in California. It’s going to force Cache Creek and Thunder Valley to respond competitively. ... We’re off to the races.”

Cheryl Schmit, an anti-gambling advocate who is fighting a major casino development another tribe plans near Highway 99 in Madera County, said the Graton resort and its prime location may signal a gambling future far different than voters envisioned when they approved tribal casinos in California.
“Here we have this massive Las Vegas-style casino very close to an urban area at the gateway to San Francisco,” Schmit said. “Everyone is pushing forward. We’re going to wake up in a few years and California will be a full-service gaming state.”
A 2012 Standard and Poor’s market assessment said the Graton resort, to be managed by Las Vegas-based Station Casinos Inc., could generate annual gambling revenue of more than $530 million by 2016. General manager Joe Hasson, who formerly ran the Harrah’s and Harveys resorts in South Lake Tahoe, said the opening is being promoted in the Bay Area market with radio and TV spots airing with “such frequency that we could elect someone governor.”

Modern Racism in California
If your skin is the wrong color in California then Big Government
says you cannot open a legal business.
Racist Democrat legislators say because Daisy Fuentes is Hispanic she is not allowed to own a casino in California. By state law only the American Indian racial group is allowed to own a casino. |
Racist Democrat legislators say because Denzel Washington is Black he is not allowed to own a casino in California. By state law only the American Indian racial group is allowed to own a casino. |
Racist Democrat legislators say because George Takei is Asian he is not allowed to own a casino in California. By state law only the American Indian racial group is allowed to own a casino. |

Wow. You guys are just... wow. Pull your heads out of your asses. A racial casino??!! Really?! Oh geez, give me a break. If California wasn't against casinos in the first place, anyone could open them. But of course pot should be legal instead... right? Backwards government. My vote is give me a house and property on the coast to start a rescue for senior kitty cats :) Yes? Yes! Oooh, and of course the funding to take care of all their kitty cat ailments.
Racism - the favoring of one group over another.
When Jay Leno, Will Smith or Jennifer Lopez are allowed to open a California casino then there will be no racism. Until then only one racial group is allowed to open that business.
The state legislature could change this racist law today if they wanted to.
This is a simple concept. I am sorry you are unable to understand it.
It's late finding this act. At least, it's a thing to be familiar with that there are such events exist. I agree with your Blog and I will be back to inspect it more in the future so please keep up your act. เว็บพนันออนไลน์ ที่ดีที่สุด
