Prison gangs are often viewed as dysfunctional because they can exacerbate violence, create a hierarchical structure that undermines rehabilitation, and perpetuate criminal behavior both inside and outside of prison. Their focus on territorial control and loyalty can lead to conflicts that disrupt the safety and order of the prison environment.
