Topic: Why Is Gambling Seen As An Irresponsible Act In Some Society (Read 205 times)
The major reason is running the gambling houses without proper licensing/registration. People always have a negative opinion on gambling, because there are more failure stories than success stories out of gambling. People believe one who gamble will ruin his life. This also gets added as a reason why people look gambling as an irresponsible act.
I have been wondering lately why people who gamble are often seen as irresponsible people and are sometimes arrested, a few weeks ago in my neighborhood so many young men were arrested in a gambling house for no reason and the police keep raiding casino houses But to my surprise gambling or playing bet is not an illegal activity in my country.
could it be that the police are just abusing gambler on their fundamental right or there is something am not aware of?
Since you said there were many young men in the gambling house the reason was probably they were underage or didn't have ID documents with them to prove their age. Of course in many countries the police is corrupt and use situations like this to get some extra money from these businesses. But if they have an excuse there is nothing you can do besides accepting the rules.could it be that the police are just abusing gambler on their fundamental right or there is something am not aware of?
If it wasnt legal on the country then those gambling places wouldnt exist on the first place but if they do allow then expect that there were set of rules which should be followed.
About the impression of the public towards gambling then its not something new on where citizens would really be seeing those gamblers to be that bad or something
which does have a disease and i dont know on where those kind of impressions that do last out through ages.

I’m having a wider understanding of what the poster is trying to say here some countries’ religion have zero tolerance for gambling and most Islamic countries have laws that prohibit gambling and if the citizens that are found gambling in any form, they can get arrested for that.

which country are you from? also, not illegal doesn't mean you or someone can make a casino or a place where people can gamble. there are processes and requirements that are needed to be followed placed by the government in order for someone to establish a casino. could it be that the police are just abusing gambler on their fundamental right or there is something am not aware of?
gambling on the unregistered casino is probably the reason why they got arrested. 
Embedded in their culture most probably, a great example would be Islamic countries. People wouldn't be detained or arrested if they didn't do anything wrong, or if they are following the rules and are obviously abiding by the law. Gambling houses that are raided may have been unregistered, or they are operating with licenses that are already expired. There's tons of reasons why and only the police knows it until they publicized the report or told the citizens of what's really happening. One can only speculate 'til then.
I like the concept you illustrate through religious law. Because in all concepts there are similarities that all these actions are included in the bad category. It might be bad to be a waste of money spending money in a bad way. Gambling is included in that realm, and we as citizens who obey the laws that prohibit gambling must still be able to harmonize ourselves.

mmhhh !! maybe you are passing for ignorant on the subject but the answer to that question is on your own profile.
or
https://i.imgur.com/IQCAkb6.jpg that is, there are rules, there is public opinion, etc.
I think you are one of those people who goes into a gloomy place with red light bulbs to gamble and what you say in the OP happens and then you ask yourself "why am I in prison, what illegal am I doing, I just want to gamble" and if they don't catch you start to look bad because you enter prohibited unregulated sites to gamble.
Fortunately for the betting ecosystem, most players are not like that ... but sometimes bad news from a minority leads to big news.

If you are confused with my answer then it is worth rereading this:
Its because they are running a casino which is not regulated, every casino should get their license to operate in a country where the gambling is legal for that they need to pay lot of money and also need to pay huge chunk of their profits as tax to governments.

Because it gets addicting easily and it makes you lose money very fast. Of course you have the freedom to lose money but everybody needs some money to survive so you'll be a burden to the society and the taxpayers are not going to happy with this because it will be their money which the government will be spending in order to keep you alive. Excessive gambling is indeed an irresponsible act which everybody should avoid.
A few days ago police raided an illegal casino in one village near my town! 70k euros equipment is confiscated, all present people arrested, owners charged! So maybe exactly this happened here... in my country gambling is legal, and there are many little and big casinos around, but from time to time I read in the news about shutting down another illegal casino! Looks like it's profitable to run an illegal casino, I don't know any other reason why there are so many of them!

If gambling is a legal act in your country, then in no way the Police can detain those people if they have not done something illegal. It is very much possible that some underage people were gambling as well in that gambling house which prompted a police raid. Or simply the police needed money so they have taken up some random people. Quite possible! I have seen such acts from police in my country.
But gambling is indeed seen as a sin in many countries. This is because of religious as well as social reasons. It's a taboo that is ongoing since ages and not easy to break out.

You should check first if the said country does restrict gambling activity then if it does then its just normal that there would be arrests that will happen since its a violation of such regulation which i can say to be normal.could it be that the police are just abusing gambler on their fundamental right or there is something am not aware of?
If your country doesnt have such law then it would really be that totally a huge question on why they do get arrested because it wont really be that happening if the sole reason is just gambling.
Anyone does have the rights to gamble out and its a free will kind of decision and when it comes to irresponsible act then its normal that majority would be having negative view about gambling
due to addiction.
In my country gambling is legal but again the policy has the license to arrest criminals who hide under gambling and investigation held against them, and again if young men gamble at odds hours, they can get arrested too.
The police will not bust them if they are not doing illegal gambling. Maybe your country has a policy to allow only all those registered gambling and not the unregulated gambling on household. Because if there's really no law about it. I don't think they will gonna go on jail since there's no case that will gonna file against them.
Most people think bad about gambling because you are betting your money for something that you could instead used the money for personal needs. You can earn money through job and business so many people think doing this is very irresponsible because you can loss your money without getting anything.
In my country such cases of police raiding some gambling houses might due to intelligence report of hoodlums hiding there, or in hotel bars etc under the guise of gambling, in order to fish out those culprits police do occasionally raid those centres, there are cases of thieves, hoodlums using stolen money to gamble, all these scenarios are common among gamblers who gambles in those places with physical presence. However with internet it is better to gamble in the comfort of our homes or place of work to avoid such embarrassment by the police.
First, you should learn how the "LAW" works in your country about gambling activity.
Most of the religious countries will be limited a bad thing like maybe "Sex" before you're married and "Gambling" because is a bad thing! So, you need to make sure your law country about gambling. If there has some "tax" gambling on your country, then should be no have problem at all doing gambling activity.

It's because a lot of people can't control themselves and just like with any other activities you can't have too much of it as the outcome never ends well. That's what i'd say if the main question isn't related to what you've mentioned.
I doubt the police are doing something abusive, maybe you missed a detail or two about their raid since gambling houses could get you involved with illegal stuff like drugs or something similar. Even if gambling isn't an illegal activity they always have the right to act whenever they have proof.

i see this as a misplaced priority and a lawless society. this can only happen in a society where the government of the people treats its citizens in a manner that isn't recommendable. having a corp invade a gambling house to arrest gamblers in a society where gambling isn't banned shows how less of of a value the place on their citizens and its a clear indication that jobs aren't provided for this gamblers as well.

It's seen as irresponsible if that person isn't financially wealthy or can't afford to the losses. I don't think anyone would care if a rich guy gambles. I guess they are getting arrested because they are violating some laws. If its the casino that is getting shutdown, they probably are running an unlicensed casino illegally. If it's the people, I don't know why. Maybe they aren't paying the taxes or they are financing their gambling funds illegally or something like that? could it be that the police are just abusing gambler on their fundamental right or there is something am not aware of?
