- marcoperaza 11y agoTotally irrelevant. This is the logical fallacy argumentum ad populum (i.e. appeal to the majority). We settle our differences democratically, but the outcome could very well be the worse option. And, by the way, there's plenty of places where gambling is legal, including parts of the US.
