Supreme Court Rules Sports Gambling Legal. Should Black America Turn Down The NBA & NFL? (Watch)

*In a 6-3 ruling the U.S. Supreme court changed the landscape of legalized sports gambling. Opening the flood gates for gambling on sports across the nation. In a recent video Attorney Antonio Moore talked about the recent Supreme Court decision allowing for legal sports gambling, and critically evaluated the decision’s impact on African American and poor communities across America.

According to NBCnews The U.S. Supreme Court acted Monday to bust Nevada’s monopoly on legal sports betting, allowing more states to get in on the action and reap the tax benefits.

The court, in a 6-3 ruling, struck down a federal law that required states to ban gambling on the outcome of sporting events. The Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act was highly unusual: It did not ban sports gambling nationwide as a matter of federal law, but it said the states were not allowed to permit it. (Nevada was grandfathered in when the law was passed in 1992.)

Dozens of states across the country are prepared to move forward quickly to offer sports betting in the wake of the court’s decision.
