- Banning gambling won't fuel crime. Allowing gambling to continue fuels crime. Most embezzlement cases involve people who steal so they can gamble. Online gambling businesses are evil because they destroy their best customers and give nothing in return.

- I never saw what people had to gain by gambling. You play long enough and you will always lose. I have better things to do with my money than take chances with it, I work hard for it.

2)our government wasnt set up to micro manage our lives, not to be our daddy,and to stay out of our homes....and thats where it needs to get back to.I dont gamble but I dont pass judgement on those that want to. I try not to pass judgement on those who try to be so holier than thou, untill they pass stupid laws or agree with them.

Also in agreement, gambling fuels crime, criminals steal to gamble, criminals wait outside of casinos to steal from those that win, then you have the grandma or homemaker that secretly gambles away thier fortune, or the fortune of others.
