A Family Story




SUICIDE IS THE GAMBLING INDUSTRY'S DIRTY LITTLE SECRET!



The Gambling Vultures work hard to cover it up, keep reports out of the media.....



...to continue to PICK YOUR POCKET while you think it's entertainment.....



On the right side of this blog are CATEGORIES of collected articles, the few that have appeared because no one wants to talk about SUICIDE.

AGA even commissioned a phony report to refute the FACTS.


GAMBLING ADDICTION has the lowest rate of self-referrals of ALL addictions and the highest rate of SUICIDE. FACT!



Please don't believe you won't know someone who COMMITS SUICIDE because of GAMBLING ADDICTION....it's not true!


Take the time to read Gladys' post....

My thoughts alone!


YES TO STOP THE CASINO MESS!








"If it can happen to me and my girls, it can happen to you and your family. It's vicious industry. By voting yes on Question 3, you'll protect your family and your community." In an emotional retelling of the loss of her husband Scott to gambling addiction, Ohio resident Stacy Stevens encourages Massachusetts voters to think twice before allowing the predatory nature of casinos to come into our Commonwealth.






"A Family Story"


On August 13, 2012, Scott Stevens, described as a successful business executive, husband, and father of three daughters, took his own life in a park he raised funds to build. He had lost hundreds of thousands of dollars at a casino opened up across the river in nearby West Virginia.


While it's easy to get lost in the statistics; the number of gamblers will rise in Massachusetts by the tens of thousands and gambling addicts maintain some the highest rates of suicide. The personal stories of those who struggle are also important. The predatory tactics of the casino industry have real consequences for real people.


We know the facts are on our side. The empty promises of the casino industry fail to pan out in state after state, community after community. Please share Stacy's video, make sure that her voice is heard. We may not have the millions of the casino bosses, but we have the voices of hundreds of thousands of casino repeal supporters across the state. Lend yours.


Any way you can spread the word, now is the time. You can engage with us on Twitter, Facebook, and through our website, as your voice maximizes our reach. For other ways to join the campaign, please donate, and follow us on social media.


Thank you for your support!
