Oh yes, if the Tejon Indian tribe gains federal recognition, Kern County will likely have an Indian gaming casino in its future. Probably somewhere near Mettler, close to Interstate 5. And I’m fine with that.   I’m not a gambler, but other people enjoy it and as long as it’s legal, who am I to stand in their way?   As for arguments that Indian casinos don’t play by the same rules as other gaming houses in California, that people aren’t protected by the same liability rules, safety regulations and other laws when they’re in those casinos, I say, yup, caveat emptor, my friend. Things are different in Mexico, Canada and other countries all over the world.   People who harp about how Indian casinos get special treatment because they’re not subject to the same taxation as other businesses sound like they’re talking through a big old mouth of sour grapes to me. Native Americans weren’t exactly dealt a fair...
