What about backgammon? Why would that be different? (Unless that is also banned.)

Maybe it’ll be approved if they put a burka on the Queen, and the rooks and knights get to rape the pawns?

Chess scares them. Every time they see the Knight, they think the Crusades are starting again.

chess was included under gambling and was a waste of time and money and a cause for hatred and enmity between players.

Yeah, like walking in and shooting up a rock concert in Paris is so much better use of time and emotional energy.

It’s also racialist, setting white against black.
