Rejected petition Create a total ban on TV advertising of all gambling websites.

Gambling is addictive - this is a proven fact. It is as addictive as nicotine and other drugs. It destroys lives and families and often leads to suicide. Advertising of cigarettes and cigars is banned. Advertising of gambling and gambling websites should also be banned - the arguments are the same.
