Lol! Good initiative by the people, but I feel that such parades do very little to help out of control gamblers fight their addictions. What truly matters the most is inner willpower in these cases.
The ones that posess strong willpower can overcome their gambling addiction while the ones with weak willpower will probably never overcome this issue.
To me i see this as more of letting gamblers realized the possible ways they can use in gambling slot and how they can play to enjoy the fun in it by having the full understanding of the game itself, this education procedures may not actually target on addiction, though it can work awhile in such regards but we have to understand that addiction is something we have to personally deal with from our own side, it can work, am not contemplating on the impossibility but the probwbility of its effectiveness.
