A casino executive in Mississippi says the Choctaw Tribe has an unfair advantage because of its sovereign status.

John M. Gallaway, president and chief operating officer of Isle of Capri Corp., said the tribe's casino should be taxed. He cited the two Indian casinos in Connecticut that pay 25 percent of their slot machine revenues to the state.
