As more folks realize that Beacon Hill has painted a target on their neighborhood, IMBY (In My Back Yard), opposition to Predatory Gambling is GROWING!
Fall River's process is a mockery of Democracy as a result of backroom deals.

One other thing to consider. If the Casino is developed only between the City and the Tribe, without the benefit of state legislation legalizing gaming in Massachusetts, the only money Fall River will ever receive are those payments agreed upon between the tribe and the City. The state will get NO REVENUES from the TRIBE...NONE, ZERO, ZILCH. My understanding is that the payment for the land sale itself will will placed under the control of the Redevlopment Authority, not for use in the City's general or capital budget.
