How do we deal with the thugs and racists ? 15:51 - Jul 13 with 4845 views | BlueRaider | I think we have to make them pariahs, make them socially unacceptable until they can behave like normal people. - Get really tough on racist posts and comments - Get really tough on public order offences For those found guilty - Remove their passports so they can't travel and embarrass us abroad - Ban them from being able to buy tickets to events (sport, music, fesitvals etc) Something also needs to be done about the alcohol culture. It affects people in different ways, most are fine and it makes them more fun and sociable. For me it makes me sleepy and irritable (not violent or abusive), so I don't bother with it. No idea how we go about tackling that though ! |  |

Unfortunately that horse bolted years ago, trying to stop these things is incredibly hard, Social Media companies need to step up, their algorithms could easily stop 90% of racist tweets, would also help if we didn't have an overtly racist government fanning flames too. Regarding football, Sunday could have easily been sorted if the authorities pulled their finger out, we've seen how easy it is to stop violence by what happens at PR during Derby Day. |  |

Most of these prlcks don't behave like that when they're sober.Apparently pubs were busy by 9 am on Sunday. I have no idea what you can do about it. |  |

Don't let them serve alcohol before a certain time would be a good start. It's always puzzled me in airports. Just because you are going on holiday, why are you able to get plastered at 9am? When alcohol sales times were removed, it was hoped we'd go all French and have a healthy relationship with alcohol, sitting outside pubs, taking all afternoon to finish a carafe of wine. No, we just started getting smashed on Lowenbrau on all day benders. |  |

This is more the unsocial behaviour than the racism. Bottles, cans and barriers being thrown around outside Wembley and in Central London is the result of binge drinking. Congratulations for not being a racist though. |  |

There’s an accepted ignorance, selfishness, lack of empathy and respect that is going to present itself in a more extreme fashion by a minority. Until we have politicians and a media who really champion the opposite of those, and put their money where their mouth is to close gaps and heal divisions, then we’ll have a society that expresses itself in this way. |  |

Perhaps football is the issue, or maybe just d*ckheads? I will be at TB for the cricket on Friday, 6 of us will go on a whole day session at a stupid pace. We will get hammered and sun burned but at no point will be start throwing things round |  |

So we should ban football? These dickheads attach themselves to the national football team and have been shaming the rest of us for decades. Binge drinking is something Britain is famous for, as is football related disorder. |  |

Leave off chickers. He's just been doing his sub-Hitchens act since his return. It's been mildly amusing in terms of bites but not really. |  |

“Sub-Hitchens act” ... nailed it. I wonder if chico has a brother who is a little bit nicer and a whole lot sharper? |  |

A very good point Bluefish. For what my point of view is worth, I believe in denying them the publicity that they thrive on might just assist. Also let the authorities target those known racists who perpetually show their vile contempt for others. Finally let us show more of the decency that abounds in our society; have you seen lately the Marcus Rashford mural in Withington and what it looks like now! We decent folk in society far outweigh the indecent folk, so let us stop giving the opinion that it is not so and support those that need and deserve it, rather than continuing to give publicity to those that seek it. |  | |  |

See you there Bluefish - am going with my son, but one of us has to drive!!!. will be a late night whatever happens! Like you though, i might sing a few stupid songs and join in the beer cup snake, but that does not make me a thug, a racist or any sort of bad 'un. |  | |  |

Point of Order, Mr Sealion - I don't think anyone is giving the opinion that the indecent folk outweigh the decent folk in society... |  |

Stopping voting for them would probably also help a lot. |  |
