The OP seems to imply that somehow gambling increases illegal activities and gives the example of prostitution and the consumption of drugs, but what gambling does at best is to attract those kind of people because they know that the people inside the casino have money to spare, but gambling in itself does not increase those activities, those activities will happen anyway, however there are some crimes that could go up due to the influence of gambling, for example those that are addicted to gambling will probably steal money to try to feed their addiction.

Yeah I agree to this that gambling is responsible for the increasing crimes in the community. Nice and wise people will never gamble because they know the consequences of gambling. In my community a gambler has no respect even in his own home. He is just an idol person of the community. If he has a lot of money and no respect then he should think about his life.

I think there are still some wise people who go to gambling but what makes them nice is that they only made it to their spare time.Gambling will only be bad if you became addicted to it and you cannot control anymore your activities so you end up stealing from other people.

Yes, I am sure that not all people playing gambling for a long time and there will be many people who were only playing gambling in their free time. They know that gambling is trying to get all of their money and they will prevent to get a big loss. Those people might be afraid to become addicted because it can get them to make something wrong for their life and other people lives too so they will stay in the gambling place and play some games and they will leave the gambling places as soon as possible.
