In class today we read an article called, "Sore loser's suit blames her trouble on Casinos" It was bout a women who gambled her heart out and then sewed the casinos for her looses.
Well, here are some thoughts on the article.
Who's to blame? She is. It was she who gambled and couldn't control herself. Her argument was that it was the casinos responsibility to stop her. A women who's a author and lawyer should be able to control herself. She is the only one to blame.
She doesn't even have good basis for her lawsuit. Even though as i said it is the casinos responsibility to kick people out if their in danger. She still has to take responsibility. Shes just trying to get her money back.
Personal responsibility doesn't end.She was the one who got herself into it so she is responsible all the way.
Now some advice to our dear friend Ms. Taveras and to everyone. DON'T GAMBLE!

Invincible! (33)
Wow!!! Praise the Lord....! That's all I have to say about the trip. Where do I start?
The experience that stood out the most and that showed me that the Devil doesn't have any power over us when we have God on our side, actually happened in the beginning of the campaign. Our pastor had just picked us up to go to our site. The day before the pastor had explained how the Nicaraguan Police like to take advantage of foreigners. He said that for example the Police would not bother a car that was overloaded with natives, but would pull over a car with foreigners. The reason for this was because they might have more money than the natives.
So as we drove down the street, we could see a policeman waving us down. We heeded the polices commands and pulled over. While the pastor handed over the papers for the car and his licence, the rest of us in the car prayed frantically that the the Lord would come through for us. We knew that Satan was trying to stop and cause problems for us. So we prayed with faith and in the name of the Lord that Satan would have no power over us.
After looking over the papers the officer haded the papers back and told us to go on. Satan had tried to stop and discourage us, but the Lord came through. This experience gave us all assurance in our hearts that God would be with us the whole trip and that Satan would have no power over us.
