I am quite offended by an ad. CasinosNO! has been running on TV to the point of ad nauseum. The man in the ad is called “Bill Gagnon,” and he announces that he has worked in a Nevada casino for five years. He also states the reason the casinos make money is that they are full of losers.
Probably not the kind of statement you’d expect from someone claiming a five-year “career” in a casino as an employee.
I believe CasinosNO! is shaking in their boots because they are airing ads that are offensive, use pushy scare tactics and include racial slurs. The audacity of this anti-casino group to show “Bill Gagnon” making the statement: “This will be the most unregulated ‘Indian’ casino in America.”
A casino is one thing, but maybe CasinosNO! problem is Native Americans running it. Too bad. It sounds racial to me.
