Topic	You can now place bets on the Special Olympics
Trumble 06/17/23 6:17:47 PM #41:	BurmesePenguin posted... How is betting on the special olympics any different than betting on the regular olympics? What am I missing here than the entire topic seems to be seeing? It just "feels" wrong to some people, I guess. I can kinda see where they're coming from, but I'm of the view that such a perception is more discriminatory than helpful - it's not actually addressing a need or helping people with disabilities overcome an obstacle, it's just purely treating them differently on the grounds that they have disabilities. --- Trumble 6800U - 16GB TRUMBLERAM - 1TB Trumble-State Drive - Trumble 680M GPU <cite>Trumble posted [p:974225491] in You can no...
