“Studies have found differences in the frequency distribution of variants of the MAOA gene between ethnic groups: of the participants, 59% of Black men, 54% of Chinese men, 56% of Maori men, and 34% of Caucasian men carried the 3R allele, while 5.5% of Black men, 0.1% of Caucasian men, and 0.00067% of Asian men carried the 2R allele.” [emphasis mine]
Remind me, please, of the racial identity of the acid-throwing individuals whose violent behavior was the jumping-off point for this discussion?
I’m saying our race/genes play a factor in who we are and used the gene above as an example. I’m not linking this gene specifically to the acid attacks, just saying when analyzing something its idiotic discount race/culture.
I could say:
Any bloodline that survived 3 months in darkness, on a boat, lying in its own fecal matter, only to arrive in a foreign land and work as slave labor for the next 350+ years while simultaneously seeing other similar bloodlines suffer vicious acts of violence, discrimination, and death, must have superior genes! Otherwise they all would have died!
That would be about as scientifically valid as any racial statement you have made to date. I can’t say I’ve ever experienced a person like yourself in real life, but I look forward to it now.
Devil’s Advocate – from the snippet of the wikipedia article it only says “black men” not “black American men descendant of slaves”… The peoples you’re referencing seem to me to be a small sub-sample of the overall of the “black men” group…
with that being said, I’m on your side of the fence…
Oh darn my premise isn’t valid? I didn’t know. I guess “Black” is a race. How about we go with Negroid, Mongoloid and Caucasian? Lump those war mongering Russians in with those war mongering Chinese and see how their genes fair? Do I sound “Raj-enough” yet?
