With the HIGHLY disproportionate violent crime committed by blacks in America, is it at least plausible to believe that it is linked to innate genetic traits?

This is known as the nature vs. nurture debate, however, the nurture aspect of it does not seem to answer this question satisfactorily (at least not to me). You can easily attribute the impulsive, brutal violence acts to poverty, but unfortunately this isn't all too logical when observing the facts.

First of all, most blacks live in lower middle class to middle class homes. Whites in extremely poor white neighborhoods don't commit nearly as many violent crimes as blacks. West Virginia is the poorest state in the U.S. and also the whitest state statistically (95%). It is also the state with the lowest rate in violent crime.

So again, is a genetic predisposition the cause? Please be open minded when responding--no idealogical rants, only intelligent answers please.

Can anyone explain the signs of a first world country becoming a third world country? Does it start with the fall of health care and education?
Also the sign of a 3 world country becoming a first world country. Can that happen with a big population like China.

I have read a lot about, and recently seen women who have "slaves" they beat and use, making them do their work etc, a form of bdsm.

Was just wondering, if this is legal, & also, what do women get out of this?

To be fair, there are guys in it too, but...

What gives?

My husband and I rent a house that my parents in law own. His mother and I have had our disagreements, as I'm sure most have. The problem is we also work together and that's where most of the arguments start. She is starting to go seriously crazy. I have been telling my husband of the weird things she's been doing when they're not there but he never believed me. Last week she finally started to get crazy enough to where he noticed and he apologized for making me work with her and said that he'd try to resolve the situation. They live at the same property of the business, so we go up to the house and have lunch and are allowed to use the bathroom, etc. Well, I had to get a clean towel out of the closet all of the sudden half of one of my sheet sets fell into my arms. I know she doesn't have any like it because my husband bought it when he was in the service. This is not the only thing she has "borrowed" without my knowledge. I found my favorite cookbook next to the stove one day.

Girl is Type B and avoids all confrontation with people she's angry at. Are Type A's the opposite? They like to confront people and expect a response with whom they're angry at?
