NASSAU, BAHAMAS – On the heels of the Bahamas Gaming Board pushing back at what they consider to be discriminatory rules, Our News took to the streets to find out how residents feel on the issue.
On Wednesday Gaming Board Executive Chairman, Dr. Daniel Johnson said they were looking to make amendments to the Gaming Act that would allow Bahamians to gamble in casinos and tourists to play in Bahamian number houses, calling the existing restrictions discriminatory.

Ricardo Saunders works in security, and when asked about his feelings on the current laws.
