Default Re: No Casino Gettysburg....

Well, I am against it, I'm not a local but I have been there enough to know the Gettysburg is not the place for a Slot Parlor. My only reason for being against is this..No one can stop progress, but where in Gettysburg will the progress stop?

Before you know it, these same people will want a piece of land near a battlefield for something else,their reason will be..
"Well, nothing really happen on this 1 acre,lets build this...then a few years down the road.."Oh, well nothing really happen here either so lets take this small patch of land" and before you know it, you will have battlefields surrounded by Buildings,Condos,etc.

The reason I take my wife to Gettysburg is to get away from the city,I enjoy the small town feeling, I just want my young children to enjoy Gettysburg the way it is now,open fields,miles of wooden fences,old stone homes...I dont want Gettysburg to end up like the Historical District in Philadelphia!! Which I feel this Slot Parlor might be the begining of...But hey, whom am I huh?
