people died for freedom, so nothing should be banned, unless it is against the law. of course they create addiction and debt.

If people want to gamble they will, be that on the tv, internet, bookies, casinos... where are you going to stop banning things?

Does mean late night tv can be a bit shit though.

Yes it does encourage gambling, but people make their own bed in this world.

" just hate seeing it on the tv.... "

I should imagine most of us non-gamblers do, but it must be a money spinner for the channels and the companies envolved, money talks...

I think they should be banished to one station so those who want to see them can and those of us who don't want to don't have to

I try to stay away from telly as much as possible. I think about it and all I see is the gambling, the chatlines, the endless advertisement for loans and then television doctors and hosts telling people to sort their shit out.

Good old television, providing the vice and the cure at the same time.

Erm, forgive me for thinking outside the box here, but i usually just pick up the telly remote, press a button, and hey presto, the channel turns over and no more casino! If you dn't like something something on telly, don't watch it! Simple!

Oh, let him keep on shouting and missing the point. They've banned smoking advertisement and they're trying to curb alcohol advertisement but they're not bothered about gambling as a) it brings in a shitload of tax money and b) weeeeelll, no one gets hurt do they? Apart from those future gambling addicts who, having had it spoonfed to them on TV that it's OK to do, then proceed to gamble away their homes and become alcoholics and fuck anyone that gets in the way of their 'wee flutter'.

Sweeping Generalisations R Us but you get my point!

Can we have bingo on TV instead? Seriously, that'd be great.
