Even the stupidity of the wording aside, why the drokk would you ban Internet cafes to stop gambling? Most people would do it at home. Maybe some xenophobes have decided to gang up on the migrants, under the 'moral' cause of banning grown adults from gambling... Or maybe I'm just a cynic

Florida, and Miami especially, are what are known as a sanctuary state / sanctuary city, where it is illegal to ask someone on their immigration status. That's how I could get away with being there for so long illegally

The ban came out before the Huffpost ...
... so finding about it in this way must also have been illegal in the state!
