This afternoon, a friend called and said I needed to look at the website of Gambler's Anonymous. If you'll click on the image on the right, you'll see the full sized screen capture.
What a screw-up - it was plastered with ads for online casinos!
But it's not a screw-up and though the site looks like it should be GA's, it isn't. These ads are here by design in what I consider one of the biggest displays of bad taste on the Internet.

So, it seems, these folks have put a site up to sell gambling to people looking for Gambler's Anonymous. Is there no limit? This is despicable.
