Everyone has different opinions in this matter. I bet there will be no one common opinion that will rise from this thread. Me personally, I know and I believe that morality depends on every individual but,,, I believe that the absence of temptation will not cause a person to do something which he has no means in commiting. It is true, casinos are a den of robbers, prostitutes, addicted gamblers and the likes and it is there available even to those who have not yet tried. There are countries who do not even allow casinos to be launched, because they know that having it will only make way to a different kind of crimes, so my answer is "Yes", it does contribute.

The first point of aguiment might be true in some parts of the world but I have not experience such condition here in my country. What we see here in connection with prostitution is Hotel and events center. Although my point might not be applicable to yours and every other person who must have responded in the other way round contrary to my view. But other crime such as criminality could be linked with gambling because some people may go to the extent of stealing for them to participate in gambling.

Rarely gambling increases crime but there has been a few isolated cases. These cases come from violent people which may have gotten drunk and lost a lot of money in the casino so they are more suspectible to crime than other persons. That is why lately the security of casinos have improved a lot, offline casinos.
In rare cases right,but normally people tend to think that people who are going to casinos are bad guys who maybe drug addicts and commit many crimes in their life so these kind of thoughts were striking on people mind even if the crime is happening all over the world.But online gambling evolution may change this kind of though among the common people.

Gambling or casinos are recreational activities it part of the gaming industry, in other words it is made for fun but since money is involved it's is considered as a dangerous game and risky game.

As it was defined it is a recreation activity for fun however if you exceed to your limit and became desperate to recover your loss a risk and danger may come and one thing of it is doing criminal activities, let's not go too far... a good example is here in the cryptocurrency industry if you're taking a look at some lending threads you can find a person who wants to lend an amount on purpose of wanting to recover his/her loss in a gambling game and after that he/she will disappear or "maybe" doing scams like selling illegal items, offering illegal, activities, etc.

But it's the person itself how he/she will going to handle this, we should only invest in gambling what we can afford to lose.

Exactly, gambling did not increase it because its already normal in every person to be more greedy and most of them was not be able to control that greed and make bad things to people. Gamblers are just want to have fun and earn money, there might be correlation psychology yes, but technically not.

Some category of people give importance to gambling as a fun, and the same makes them spend those winnings on some activities that too will give him the pleasure. In specific they can spend on some prostitution or into some other fun factors. At some instances this leads to crime, so gambling doesn't have a crime effect but the people into gambling at times use on.

There is a correlation between gambling and crime, and we know that when somebody loses the money in gambling, he can do many things to keep playing and one thing that he can do is steal other people money so he can use that money to playing gambling games. But that does not always happen because maybe that person still has another money in his account, so he only needs to withdraw some money to continue playing gambling.

In certain situations, a gambling addict will surely find difficult conditions where he has no more fund that can be used to fulfill his gambling needs. Well, at such times, it is possible for a gambler to have a negative thought to commit a crime, whether it is misdemeanor or the serious one, because there is a strong urge to do gambling. This can happen even though the number may not be so much.

i believe Illegal Drugs,Prostitution and even kidnapping is happening inside casino,theres alot of cases in asia when mostly chinese nationals are abducting each other just to claim money from the victims family
Well some casinos may be promoting such kind of activities, but I think that gambling is not only played by wrong people, I can see a lot of people who play ambling and their only reason is to release their stress after day work. They always play gambling in a pleasant way and under their budget. I think we should also highlight the god aspects of gambling.

The thing you do mention isn't a good aspect of gambling yet it has nothing to do with the people who do engage with it and the other things that correlates such as those
illegal activities beyond its vicinity. As long money is involves these things are really inevitable,so as a player then you should be aware on your surroundings because not all the times you
would really be safe even you are just playing on that place but well if you are only a small wagerer then you shouldn't mind at all.
Criminals are looking for money and most of the lust that people have inside needs money to gained, there's cases where gamblers got robbed
after playing common stories about big winners been victimized by this robbers around, there's also cases where gamblers who got out of money
learned to steal things to sell and gamble again, this incidents which relates to a gambling practices.

when we hear the word gambling the first thing that come thru our mind is money . the gambling platform and the gambler have a money , that is why criminals will target them but the crimes that are related to gambling were only few when compared to other crime's out there  . maybe because some casinos are guarded or have a high security and gamblers are also cautios  in which criminals cannot effectively penetrate them .

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?

People in casinos are obviously rich or if not, have plenty of money to gamble with so thats why illegal transactions usually done in that place. Gamblers are also always stick on a drug dealers image because of the amount of money they are playing both.

Don't know about drug dealers but Prostitutes are normally attracted to entertainment/relaxation spots. So it is not really about gambling.
It also depends on the owners of gambling centers and country's laws ...If they don't want  Prostitutes there, they definitely won't be allowed.
Yes it depends on the gambling place. as well as yourself when you want to avoid crime. gambling is an entertainment so we should feel rilex and freedom. gambling is not the trigger for crime, because it all depends on each person. believe that when we consider gambling to be an entertainment we will feel such extraordinary comfort. do not put pressure on us because we will only exacerbate the situation.
Logically, it has nothing to do with gambling. Gambling is a place to gamble, whatever the intention of someone who comes to the gambling place they only intend to get win or an entertainment depending on the type of person. However, as far I know gambling is always synonymous with criminal act. Maybe not everyone knows about that, because the type of person is always different when he goes to the casino, for those who only intend to gamble or have other intentions because he knows the ins and outs of the casino.

Though i am also thinking that government officials are part of this illegal activities becaue this involves lot of money
This must be a hard truth about how the legal system is working and leading to support the growth of illegal things. By considering all these, I just want to take a resolution of not at all gambling in physical casino so that I will not support them in any means.

Right.I have seen some cases wherein some casinos have been a hiding place for some illegal acts but it greatly depends if the owner of the casino tolerated those acts.Maybe he is also making money from it so he is fully aware about those crimes.So it would be more wise to choose gambling sites that are not surrounded by those illegal acts if you don't want to be a part of it.
Playing on a legal and trusted site will make us comfortable playing gambling.
I recommend 777coin to play gambling, find a place that is comfortable and safe so that we can play calmly.
Playing on a legal site will make us avoid crime. Choose the best then the results will be good.

Gamblers may be suspicious but actual frauds means you. Red to trap the site owner only.  They were introducing which is not legal in your country so you must be careful before you invested on any gambling sites.

Criminals in gambling field? I don't vote for it for sure.

Maximum people invested on gambling must clear the way they are moving for earning purposes.
It is true that people come to gambling site for the purpose of money making but we need money to bet on the gambling sites which may tempt the people to do crimes to get that money and even when they are addicted they can do anything to gamble but it is very rare case thoug.

Crime is the side effect of gambling even though not every gamblers will commit crime to fulfill their gambling habits. For those who already addicted to gambling and have no more money to satisfy his addiction, they are susceptible to do crime.
I admit that every gambler is not criminal but as gambling is not assumes positive therefore people stitch evil things with gambling and it is a fact that gambler especially in my community doesn’t have any respect and all the people keep distance from a gambler. Many gamblers become criminals too when they are gambling addicted and that is the reason that crime is assumed as part of gambling.


Those who are addicted chances of they turning to criminal increases because in addiction every time you can only think is gambling and to gamble you require money. You cannot win every time from gambling and thus results in the losses and to get more money people start doing crime.
Actually it is a very dangerous factor for a gambler and already has a hard addiction. He could not stop for a moment to gamble and think about how to get money in a good way, in my country there were many such events. They steal by coming to people's homes every night and pointing sharp weapons at threatening people who have a home, but his bad luck comes when the police are able to arrest him and it turns out he is a gambler. So the government made a strict regulation to regulate gambling in my country, especially gambling online.

Its not gambling alone that make them do crimes  . i believe those addict gamblers do also use drugs and other forms of addictive stuffs , thats why that can result for them to do other deadly crimes because if they are already high . they are out of their minds and they are not afraid anymore  .  they can even endure any pain   that they will recieve  .
