We have had drug addicts in this area for YEARS .. we have people
pumping paychecks into poker machines .. we have people spending paychecks
on booze .. we got people TRYing to spend paychecks on hookers ..
WE CANNOT PROTECT EVERYONE .. deal with it .. why lose the MILLIONS of
dollars slot machines and such would raise within the state ??
NOT cashing in on gambling is ALMOST as dumb as not legalizing weed and
selling it in state stores !! .. SO MUCH money can be raised in these
MORAL GRAY AREAS .. how much GOOD do we actually accomplish be NOT
legalizing them ??
