Beat the House

Saturday, June 6, 2009

On June 6, anti-casino Philadelphians gathered inside Harrah's casino, near Philadelphia, to call attention to the predatory practices used by the casino industry. The event, called Beat the House, sent two messages: A message of defiance to the predatory gambling trade, and a message of support to Philadelphians who want to keep slot parlors out of their city.
