I know you are debating media/parental influence, but nothing you just brought up supports why you answered above that conservative leaning individuals are less likely to raise hooligans. Conservative people love their kids and expect more of them? Come on. I'm sorry, I just don't see any relationship.
I will open the can of worms - Yes - I do believe that those who are extremely liberal have much lower expectations - for example - those who use drugs usually are not concerned with the example they set for their children. Do conservatives expect more from their kids? I believe they do - simply from the differences in lifestyles. What is acceptable behavior in a liberal household would probably never fly in a conservative home. I don't know if I helped this any or not - just my own personal opinion.
