Topic: Is Gambling Generally An Illicit Activity? - page 3. (Read 948 times)

they have their reasons why they ban gambling. but let's accept the fact that even if the govt have such stance, these gamblers will always find a way how to gamble, and so black market will always be tap by these gamblers. so for the govt to get something out of it, where they can't totally get rid of this business, better make them legal so they can tax these gambling-related businesses.
it has been with the humanity ever since, so i don't think such banning would eradicate this business at their own mandate.

The pros and cons regarding gambling, whether this activity is prohibited or not, is still a matter of considerable debate.

And I am with people who debate things that should not be debated, such as between halal and haram, between legal and illegal gambling. All of this is absolute and cannot be contested, because the provisions and explanations are clear. And here I mention that gambling is not about halal and haram, not about legal and illegal, but this gambling is more about determining likes and dislikes. Because even though gambling is haram according to religious rules and haram according to state rules, it does not rule out the possibility for someone to gamble.

And if it is true that gambling is a prohibited activity, then illegal gambling will never flourish in a country that strongly opposes it.

The gambling had the chance of win and loss based on the gambling done by the gambler.If the gambler had made the game with their own strategy to tackle the algorithm of the gambling site.He had a lot of chance of winning in the gambling sites.If the gambler made the random bet in the gambling sites,So their will be more possibility of the loss in the gambling sites.When the people of certain country encounter the big loss in the gambling site.This enough for the government of that country to ban the gambling site in that country.But it also depend on the government of the nation is based on the people or own welfare.

Money laundering can happen anywhere, it can happen through club business, it can happen through groceries shop, it can happen through any legit business that have large volume of sales and trust me, nobody is going to know anything. It's like when you sell 4 bottles of Hennessey and in your record, you put 6 and then you increase the number of supply that was brought to you during uffload of goods to your shop. Gambling is just a means to launder money and it's only illicit when they find anyone guilty of such crime.

Do you even know that gambling platforms have a way of trapping money laundering? They know that it does happen and they know for certain that people will abuse it and that's why they have this rule that you must first make initial bets from your deposit before you can withdraw it. If you don't bet the money, you can't withdraw it, it's in their policy and you can't sue to them for that, you need to make atleast a wager first and that trap is enough to lose everything back to the casino.

So many countries do not permit gambling in their country for one reason or another, but the reasons range from potential addiction, which can make one commit a crime in other to make sure that he or she satisfies their gambling urge, gambling in many countries is not permitted because of religious ground, let's realistic any addictive behavior is not supposed to be permitted because of the danger that comes with them, let me use alcohol as a case study, do you know that so many crime has been committed because under the influence of alcohol, people has been killed, sporadic shooting has taken place in many countries because of excessive alcohol intake, even this gambling, some people are into gambling today because of alcohol.

Yes, it does provide a revenue stream for the country which can help the economy. Countries even use gambling as a source of income to help the economy. Gamblers can still survive because they use free money to gamble but we don't know how long they can survive. But other countries still prohibit gambling so people cannot gamble freely. And even though the government cannot earn income from gambling, it can still earn income from other business sectors.

Gambling can cause someone to become addicted to gambling and as we know, some countries allow gambling and some that prohibit it. Those who live in countries that allow gambling can of course, gamble freely and perhaps this is what makes many gamblers eventually become addicted to gambling. Meanwhile, for those who live in countries where gambling is prohibited, some people try to gamble but they gamble in illegal casinos where they can all be arrested if they are caught gambling. The government can indeed take advantage of the casinos in their country, but the government must also think about the impact of gambling on its people. The government needs to provide advice so that people can use gambling as a type of entertainment and not use it as a way to make money.

If people can be responsible while they are gambling, they don't need to worry about gambling addiction problems because they can definitely take care of themselves well and will not be tempted by the offers they see while they are gambling. But the problem is that not everyone can control themselves while gambling and they may lose control of themselves when they lose. But when they win, they can also lose control because their greed will get bigger and tell them to continue gambling. This is what many people who frequently gamble must understand because most of them come to casinos more often to gamble. Even though they argue that they gamble just for fun, but there is still a risk of experiencing a gambling addiction.

As long as you can take care of yourself when gambling, you certainly won't worry about the problem of gambling addiction because you can prevent it from happening to you. Those who live in the same country as you can use online casinos if gambling is prohibited in your country. But you should be careful about the impacts that can be received by people who gamble frequently, especially since many people have become victims.

It's normal that many people in the area where you live think gambling is bad. Maybe they have seen what happens to someone who often gambles so they don't want one of their family members to experience the same thing so they are always alert. But, indeed, people should always be careful in gambling because they will not know when they will experience gambling problems.

Gambling is illegal in certain countries, especially in Muslim countries where gambling is considered haram, but gambling is a legal activity outside Muslim countries. Countries outside of Muslim countries are legal for gambling because the government gets a lot of bats from gambling sides or casinos. If gambling was an illegal activity worldwide then these gambling sites could not be sponsored by various big companies. Various famous football clubs are sponsored by gambling sites. Because of the high risk involved in gambling, gambling may be banned in some low-income countries because their governments feel that gambling is draining their country of money.

actually in my country gambling is an illegal game but I still do it because I think gambling is not a bad activity as long as I don't harm other people, in my country there are no offline casinos so I gamble online and currently there is a lot of online gambling which is easy to do. access for everyone, in my country many people carry out gambling activities online and so far there have been no serious problems related to gambling.
It's just that gambling is always considered bad in the environment I live in, so I gamble with friends when I am just gather or do it secretly and not many people know except my close friends.

Things in the countries are very diverse, on a personal level I think that gambling will never be illegal, it will never be like that unless the casino is fraudulent, it is something that I notice, but for example in my country it has been more than 20 years since He was president and made casinos illegal because he said that there were many addicts and that the casino produced addiction, something that makes me feel childish ban on the part of that person who has already died, but what he did was set the country back for more than 40 years. advance, but that was something very disastrous what he showed in his government, I would think that a person like that can only be sorry for the bad thing that was in his mind, for me they govern us because they say or prohibit casinos and games of chance are plated to the antiuga and they really don't want their people to have fun, it seems to me a very selfish act and that they can no longer get ahead with what they have, then this is something quite ridiculous that a country prohibits gambling juices, casinos everything .

What I think is, those who think that the casino produces addicts should continue with their thinking, that no one is going to mess with them, and that they should continue thinking like that, but the majority of people do not see the casino as that, but as something that it is normal, that it is fun and that each person has the responsibility of whether or not to fall into addiction, there is a reason the casino is for people who are of legal age and consider themselves adults, it is not necessary to have one police officer on top of the other so that they can tell you what is good and what is bad, how you should bet and how you should not bet, that is something that has to be understood, furthermore, a country succeeds without prohibitions, without the need to be aware that its people is going to get involved or not going to get involved in a certain place, or that he is not in a mess, because here what matters is that things are always being done as they are without any type of problem, each person is free to do their things, and it is responsible, you must be responsible.

It would be considered to be illicit because it do becomes a tool for money laundering and other correlated transactions on which it would really be that resulting into these kind of illegal activities.
This is they the community would really be having that kind of impression without even trying out to realize that its been long time that fiat money had already been that something like this.
It is really just that there are people who are really that kind of conclusive approach basing up on their initial impressions towards gambling. They wont really be that making themselves
that be trying out to be open minded whether its been a sole reason or just basically on being a tool. We do know that things could make out involvement and ending up
on having that bad integrations on something which it isnt right in speaking on approach.

I don't know how Wikipedia works, but from what I've heard, there are several Wikipedia authors who don't often update their writing, from what I've heard, there are quite a lot of officials who launder money through gambling sites, they deliberately deposit a lot of money in it so it's corruption. they smell it, they are not obliged to return the money, they can use the excuse of losing gambling to escape the obligation to return the funds they have stolen.

as long as you don't do bad things in gambling or use bad money to gamble then you don't commit bad actions or Illicit Activity.

Even though the government regulates gambling as a prohibited activity in legislation, the reality is that gambling still operates without being banned by the government, only a few gambling sites have been prosecuted as proof that the government has worked, but big gambling is still operating because many assume that gambling gets its legality from dark spaces. IMO

So regardless of the legality of gambling in each country, there is still population data that is addicted to gambling, in countries that prohibit gambling, it may have a lower percentage of 10-15% susceptible.

Gambling is not the illegal in the many countries,because it generate more economy flow and also control the money flow in the country.The developed countries doesn’t worry about the legalisation of the gambling,because most of the gambler will have enough money for their survive and use the free money for the gambling.If the gambling site was prohibit by the government,nearly 60 percentage of the population will follow the rules blandly.So the government plays the huge role in the gambling movement in that country.But some people the rest 40 percentage doesn’t worry about the government rule on the gambling.

Very often those that are young do not care at all about the legal status of anything, as long as they feel good while doing it that is all what matters to them, and this can be a very dangerous attitude to have, because on the countries in which gambling is not legalized most of the time those persons will have to take bets at an illegal casino, which is most likely owned by criminals, and once you are in there almost anything could happen.

In our country gambling is not legal but hence most of the youngest individuals are involved in it. Its obvious that if someone is advising you to not be part of something then your desires will be increase for that thing and other reason is that if you hear that gambling is providing you maximum profit then your feelings will more likely to boost up because money is very important in life.

In those countries where gambling is legal then they take benefits of tax from gambling but for gamblers this field is unusual and unnecessary which only spoil his earned income but return will only distress you. I think people who wants to participate in gambling will not think about legal or illegal activities because they need only money and money is the thing which compelled you to do wrong deeds.

Gambling is not illegal but because there are countries that prohibit it, that makes gambling illegal. But even if gambling is illegal in a country, it doesn't stop people from gambling because they think that gambling is a quick way to make money. Online casinos are not illegal if the country allows gambling and it is true that this depends on each country because that country is the one that permits gambling. If a country prohibits gambling, people should not violate the prohibition lest they be punished for gambling. There must be rules that regulate gambling, whether they legalize it or make gambling illegal.

Gambling itself is not illegal, nor are the games involved in gambling. What makes gambling illegal if the owner of the casino or online casino doesn't have a permit to operate? Or maybe a gambling game built only by normal people is illegal. The OP only mixed up the article by saying that yes, gambling is one of the activities in money laundering, and that's because the one who does the laundering does gambling in secession, like using funds just to gamble; that is what is illegal.

And also, gambling will be considered illegal if a country bans it for a certain reason, but the gambling itself is not illegal; the country just decided to ban it. If gambling is illegal, then why are there existing casinos and online casinos out there? So in short, it's about the country, the permit, or the rule if they make gambling games illegal.

yep, I've also said this that sometimes in a certain country or city like Saudi Arabia there are rules or laws that prohibit gambling or establishing a gambling business and if it is violated there will be penalties that apply but still gambling will only be a prohibited activity in only certain countries, not globally, and related to gambling advertisements, it seems that if a country has banned any gambling activities, gambling advertisements will also be blocked and we will not find any gambling advertisements.

even if there are such prohibitions and laws that have been determined for me, it does not rule out the possibility that no one will gamble and of course there are still people who gamble secretly, even corruptors in that country have the opportunity to launder money in gambling.

Gambling is not the same thing as sports. You can get as much as six months imprisonment or more with flogging for gambling in Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia. But the country is one of the biggest spenders on sports and will soon host one of the biggest football events in the world. In some nations, gambling is highly prohibited because is seen as a sinful or immoral activity. And you will never see a gambling advert during any sporting competition within its territory.


Bad actors will always use good mediums to carry out unlawful activities. I agree that these money launders are just a few because the majority of gamblers enjoy the activities and make some profit from gambling. People also gamble for many other reasons besides entertainment and money. Therefore gambling laws shouldn't be made stringent because of these few negative actors.

Yes, obviously I talk about religions, and many other things, they are very delicate topics, but I say it in my own way of expressing myself because it is my personal opinion, sometimes we are guided by things like religion, politics, everything that has to do with it. to develop in every way, that is clear, but we have to believe that things are not good when they cause harm, and casinos are for fun, I understand that there are many who have to stick to their religions, that's fine, I repeat it, but they shouldn't drag everything into that, that's why there are so many wars, because they can't make us think like the others they want, that's something that at least I don't do, and I have my religion, but it's clear that every Religion is just a concept, in fact in my religion they don't establish any religion or anything like that, what I know is that things when they try to hurt or something are just that I will never be right.

When we talk about religions, politics or something like that, it will always be a delicate topic, but points of view and opinions must also be respected, because in the world there are many currents of politics, religions and everything you want. As long as religion and politics or anything that is of one direction does not affect the lives of others, that is what I say, because of religion there is war, do you believe that any God or Supreme Being likes wars? ? no, so for that reason it is that in gambling in casinos you should not mix religions, politics or anything, and with respect to fun I consider that one can have fun as they want, if the religion of a person X says no Well, that's a question, no, that's that person's problem, but I don't think that caisno is a bad act, or that it should be banned. I think there are many countries that already have many internet bans. access to sites, which I think is quite a lot. I say all this with all the respect of all religions.
