If they aren't based in the United States, it shouldn't matter. They do business and abide by the laws in their own country. If someone in Kentucky chooses to gamble through the site, they can arrest him. This is nothing more than policing the world. Telling other countries what is and isn't allowed.

But the saddest part about this is the fact that we aren't allowed to do what we want with our money. I see they haven't seized this one yet.
