We did not work for our elected so hard for them to do this...We want conservative legislation and if this goes though many elected are finished and this has the ability to once again destroy our party..

This was one of our BIG concerns with Joe Straus but may did not care and even got offended by our concerns. Well if this goes through there WILL be primary opponents.

Let's not sell our souls for a few dollars that will only be wasted.

Personally I'd love to see casino gambling come to TX, I'd much rather see our money stay in TX than go across the border to New Mexico, Oklahoma and Louisiana. I'll make at least 2 trip's to Vegas every year and several to Ruidoso NM. and I'm not alone.

Sell you souls? WTH! It’s a GAME and conservatives are acting like liberals in trying to regulate every damn thing. What right do YOU have to tell anyone how to spend their own money? It’s infuriating to me.

Pennsylvania now has board gambling because WV had board gambling.

I haven't seen a penny from it. I don't gamble, personally, because the odds are with the state.

In my opinion, Galveston could be the third coasts’ Atlantic City.

As a Houstonian, I would welcome that.

I’ve been to Reno, Vegas, and many, many indian casino’s in between. I am not a gambler, but I go for the food and blow $20. The indian casino’s I’ve been don’t even serve alcohol.

[Ditter]

Gambling is sleazy, I don’t want it. JMHO!

[Tolsti2]

If they allow it, which I doubt, I sure hope they keep the Indians away from them. The Oklahoma ones suck. The tribe controls the pay tables and they’re all awful for the slots.

On the table games you have to pay 50 cents a hand to play. It’s absurd and ruins it. Oh, and you don’t get comped booze either.

[Ron H.]

Keep Texas free of gambling and all of its societal ills that follow it.
