Batesville Gets Action!
Illegal gambling business is shutdown! Gambling house was raided and shutdown in batesville there was a daycare in the back of the house and it was weird. I saw this in the Batesville Daily Guard.
Batesville doesn't get alot of action but when it does it's interesting just like this illegal gaming business that was raided. I was reading The Batesville Daily Guard the other day and i read "An illegal gambling house with an apparent daycare in the back has been shutdown in Southside." It got my attention because i saw the word 'illegal' in the Guard. I read the article and i found out why it was a big deal, In Arkansas gambling is illegal in every place except for Hot Springs. From a THV article I saw, "Independence County authorities said they've confiscated four high profit gaming machines from the back of a local business, one of them being played by children." Gambling is a major thing in the USA we have some of the biggest gambling cities in the world. I dont understand why gambling is still illegal because it creates so much jobs for the state and i believe it helps the states economy. "The information that we've obtained is that these four slot machines were bringing $10,000 a month," said Sheriff Jeffery. Thats alot of money and if it were taxed somehow I think it'd helped the US economy. Gambling plays a major role in the US and it also is alot of peoples income because they enjoy and are good at what ever game they're playing.
