I recently participated in a debate on debatepedia and this particular one brought about a huge argument and I was wondering how that argument will play out here and hoping to view your thoughts on this.

Actually, the bone of content here is that does gambling cause an increase in various kinds of related criminal activities? Few examples of the major points raised were;

Quote

Casinos are often associated with criminal activity. Drug dealers and prostitutes operate near casinos they know that there are a large number of potential clients in the area. Casinos can therefore be devastating to neighborhoods.

Quote

The existence of criminals does not make nearby businesses (including casinos) immoral. It is perverse to punish people who just want to gamble (and not take drugs or use prostitutes) by taking away their chance to do so.

For me personally, I believe immoral activities are certainly based on each individual and it does not have anything to do with gambling. Nevertheless, from some of the further research that I made, I got to understand that, these things mentioned are very much applicable in most casinos; drug dealings, prostitution and even some casinos where the owners are into some shady stuffs. Well, just want to get to know what you guys think about this. Do you think Casino is like a hiding place for perpetrators of crime or casino on its own, ushers in a huge level of immoral activities by default?

We all know that gambling is one of the way on how people earn profits today in crypto. But as a smart player we must also know that this gambling isn't the best way to earn. It has advantages but the disadvantages are quite most concern. We must be aware on how this gambling may affect pure behavior in earning. We must know when to stop and avois being greedy in profit. In that, we will avoid negative acts that may lead us to make crime.

I think that gambling is the mother of crimes and criminals. You see that most of the gamblers are also murderer, gangsters, looters; snatchers etc. gamblers will do every illegal activity. They will spend nights on the roads because they have no place and respect in their own home. You can think about their lives. They are spending their lives as dogs on the road.
