I think that hooliganism is a social phenomenon and it's a result rather than a cause. I agree with most people ideas about the fact that they must be punished. But, 'crime and punishment' is a delicate topic. In the fact of holiganism, we should also think the real reasons under the surface such as poor life conditions, dissatisfaction in their lives, a world without love and the system that says some people 'sorry you are the victims, you have no chance to live better like others'. I think it is very hard to cope with holiganism. It needs radical solutions which may affect the source of the crime in society. You can not take holiganism apart from the other criminal events. Moreover, you can not escape from the responsibility of the crime as a member of a society.

My opinion about the hooliganism is that hooligans sent away people from stadium and do bad to their teams.

Some people think that football hooligans are a menace to society. They think that they should go to prison for a long time. Some countries - England, for example, where many of the hooligans seem to come from - try to stop known hooligans travelling to matches. But many people argue that this is a weak response to a serious problem.

What are your views?

It's their own bussiness I think. If the law is unable to punish 'em, let them be 8) .

well this is for sure a big problem and i think that the governments are trying thier best in terms of security but the media must play a big rule in making these groups aware that this is JUST A GAME and that these violent actions will lead them to death some times :x irealy think that some of those people have mental problems and this should be put in mind

I like soccer. It's a kind of sport which could make people very excited.
But I think football hooliganism is for sure a real problem, too. In some country, such as England, it is especially remarkable, whereas other countries do have, but much less remarkable. I think these countries should find the real problem under the surface, and what makes football hooliganism to be so violent in your regions ?

In my opinion, hard punishment is the way to stop them.
