Letter: Slots don’t destroy lives; people do
Wednesday, Sept. 1, 1999 | 9:04 a.m.
When are Americans going to wake up and learn that slot machines, drugs and drinking are not destroying lives? People are destroying their own lives.
There is not a slot machine in this world that will not let you walk away from it when you desire to leave. You have the choice as a free human being to do as you please. If you desire to destroy yourself, that is your choice.
The people of this country should figure out that the only thing that is going to make life better is for them to take responsibility for their own actions.
