Dennis Troha -- Yes, again..

In March of this year, I wrote the following blog about Dennis Troha:

I know I'm probably a little late with this news, but I've been a little busy. Anyway, pretty interesting that Dennis Troha pulled out of the Kenosha casino project less than a week before he was indicted on charges of fraud and making a false statement to the FBI.

That's all I've got to say.

Except, it sounds like I might've been right about him.


A reader commented and I quote: "I'm sorry, but I missed the news reports saying that he was convicted. Funny how you liberals are the first to recite the constituion and free speech rights, but have memory loss when it comes to the right to a fair trial and innocent until proven guilty."
(BTW, the misspelling of constitution is the readers and not mine.)

Well, well, well, Dennis Troha will be entering his guilty plead within the next two weeks according to the Racine Journal Times. (Sorry I'm late on this, I was out of town this past weekend)

So, I'll say it again.

Looks like I was right about him.

God Bless

Casinos

Once and for all, here's how I feel about a casino being built in Kenosha.

I don't think it should be built. Period.

Yes, I think there are too many casinos all ready in this state and everywhere. I don't think a casino constitutes family fun just because it has a hotel with a swimming pool and an arcade. Kids don't belong in and around a casino anymore than I think they should be around alcohol. (Yeah, I'm one of those who think you shouldn't drink around your kids.)

Gambling is a vice. I've been known to pull a few handles on slot machines and pick up a lottery ticket now and then, but really, I don't want a casino in Kenosha. Why not a nice indoor waterpark? It might bring in less tax money, but no one is going to lose their rent money there.

I have the right to my opinion. This is my blog and my website and I'm not crazy for thinking that a place that promotes a vice -- and gambling is a vice -- isn't what should get built in place of the dog track.

So, I don't really care if you think I'm being ridiculous, I don't support the idea of yet another casino in this state. And, I'm sorry there are people in this state that think promoting a vice is a good way to raise tax dollars.
