We. Are. Peoria (Area)

Almost sounds like the days of the Prohibition when gambling and alcohol were banned, and if you were losing money without being able to pay up, you'd end up with a pair of concrete shoes on a dock.

Fast forward 100 years, and a man upset because he lost so much money playing dice, he tried to rob the others, ended up shooting both, one fatally. Bond is at $1.5 million.

Shaking my head over another stupid reason to get a gun and shoot people.

I saw this, and thought it was so sad. Gambling addiction is just as dangerous as addiction to drugs or alcohol.
