Should soccer games not have live spectators?

Asked by MrGrimm888 (19018points) June 20th, 2016

I live in the USA so it’s not as popular here (although it’s becoming popular. ) It seems like every week I hear about people being killed , or injured (sometimes many people ) at a soccer game. With all the focus in America now about gun control (preventable violence ) it seems like maybe soccer should only be viewed on TV. The fans seem unable to gather and coexist without large scale violence. Lots of sports are violent, but soccer seems to have the most violent fans. With all due respect.
Again, l’m no expert on soccer , so idk if the bad games are over represented by the media. I’ve never attended a soccer game abroad. Has anyone been to them alot? Is violence as common as it seems?
