I really think gambling will only be a crime if it would be illegal and unregistered, But if we look at the perspective of the player's anybody can do a crime if they would be addicted to gambling perhaps they can certainly do such things, It is pretty much certain that this is a neuro kind of thing that can confuse one's mind, I really think addiction is a pretty much a worldwide problem and can be qualified as a similarity for committing a crime just like what drugs do to a person.

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?

True, immoral activities will depend on each person's personality. But most immoral activities are caused by money. When someone is in a bad situation that needs money to overcome it, personality can be changed. Gambling is an activity that is very close to people who have financial problems and can trigger people to commit crime.

I don't think that the casino was related with the criminal activity because people who come to the casino at least have money to play. but they can be criminal because they need money to gamble still and they have stolen other people's money. but maybe there are any drug dealers and prostitutes near casinos because people who can win the games will have big money and they want to spend their money on anything.

the casino is not a hiding place for the people who make crime or the owner of the casino. but we don't know the truth, and we can only see them from the outside of the casino without know what is going on. many possibilities can happen in the inside of the casino itself, and we don't have to debate to other people because we don't know the real and it's only waste of time unless the casino owner is telling the truth.

Gambling will surely increase crime as desperate gamblers will resort their crime to fund their gambling addiction. The way to solve this problem is for government to regulate gambling and educate people on the dangers of gambling addiction. However, land based casinos pay lots of tax to the government so there won't be going anywhere soon. Education is the only solution to reduce crime rate caused by gambling.

There are a lot of things that happened because of gambling. But I don't agree that there are no effect of gambling that is resulting to crimes since there are a lot of robberies and murder that happened because of jealousy on gambling.

If these people are so addicted to gambling, they will be finding more ways to gamble even if it means killing someone just to do it. They are so obssesed to it.

I am pretty sure there are more criminals out there that commit crimes when they are addicted to drugs or alcohol.

I am sure it happens, but I doubt some degenerate gambler will break into a car to steal $5 in change and try and gamble with that change.

With alcohol or drugs, its different because those substances are very difficult to control. However I might be wrong here.

Most of the time when security escorts someone out of the casino, its not because they tried to steal money from someone, its usually because they were way too intoxicated and started too many problems.

Their are two types of Casinos, some casinos are very professional run by fully licensed and they dont indulge in prostitution as they know that both crime cannot be clubbed and done properly.  

Some Casinos which are run by local goons without license and they run prostitution also as both are illegally runned and they both are clubbed as this local goons are doing all sort of illegal activities.

So now i think your argument got solution

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.

This one is very funny. If some criminal elements operate near a casino it's the fault of the casino.
This means that if a criminal elements decides to rent out a building near your house it's your fault. You brought them there, there must be something fishy about you, if your house wasn't there they wouldn't have picked that spot Cheesy Cheesy

I think its possible to amplify or pick up crime as a result of gambling experience. In particular, more so I think, in relation to old fashion walk in casinos.

Most casinos do not advocate prostitution or other crimes, because they think that it will interfere with casino progress, returning to people's personalities is sometimes like ignoring the most important thing they just want to benefit from a large crowd, wrong of course there are so many people those who enter prostitution, do not agree if you see a casino as a crime, outside the casino there is so much prostitution, drugs and other crimes, you have to look from the surrounding environment.

The gambling was meant for everyone so it is unfair to blame the gamblinf system if some wrong people using them,I too agree that there were lot of criminal people were involving in the most of casino gambling because the legit money earner need to think many times before spending it for a entertainment purpose so the illegal earners no need to worry because they can earn lof of money without much effort.But gambling doesn't ecourage any crimes only it is about the people.

Some people resort to crime and illegal activities after losing it all in gambling, but I don't think gambling has a large effect on crime overall.

The points you highlighted all relate to real-life physical gambling in physical casinos, and therefore can't really be applied to online gambling if you're trying to make a point about online gambling. Illegal activities can still be done online, though, and that's something that is less researched.

For me, there are no crime effects on gambling, there are still effects but not crimes but mental disorders, addiction, deppression that will be having an effect on the people.The effect of these mental disorders can lead to crimes, maybe murder, stealing using drugs and other more

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
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?

I think that casinos can cause crime and prostitution, maybe as we know large casinos in the world there are always Pubs and Clubs identical to women, alcohol and possibly drugs, many cases such as murder caused by cheating gamble like the news we know, but with online gambling sites I think it will minimize the crime.

I don't accept the argument that casino is the breeding ground for prostitutes, drugs and criminals. It is often seen casinos are the soft target of people, such kind of activities happen in hotel rooms, streets so pin pointing it at casinos is not a good idea. I also feel all these people are there because people want their services, and they want money it works both ways. If all this were true wouldn't all casinos be shut, or 24*7 under legal scrutiny? It's pertinent to note all this may apply to land based casinos, what'll you say about online casinos?

That's not true. What kind of prostitutes and drugs would you expect around a loner's house who gambles with bitcoins? The big hotel-casinos is a different thing as they have to create that ambience for the big rollers. They're often associated with high lifestyles like cocaine, models and bg cars. It has nothing to do with gambling really.
