He won like 2 million dollars or something like that, and since he was already wealthy, he decided to give it to charity. The Salvation Army refused to accept it, because it was "gambling money".
Is that not the most retarded thing you've ever heard of? I mean, they could have at least used that money to help needy children whose parents wasted money gambling.

Why should the Salvation Army care how he got his money so long as it was by legal means? I didn't know they wanted to have some kind of moral authority. I'll donate somewhere else from now on.
