All you need to do is simply look at the history of this country from the time columbus bumped onto the shore up to today and you will see what a violent nature anglos have and how that violence spread throughout the nation.

No, it's something taught. Like abusive parents or drug addicts they slowly get introduced to it. Families in America aren't as together as they were in the olden days. Probably because the family slowly got away from having daily family meals and just being a family. So because of this many marriages broke up making the fathers turn abusive and then this was taught to their kids in turn making them angry and violent.
Though not all Americans are violent only those who choose to be. I myself am a American I'm not happy with how every American acts but there are still kind and wonderful American citizens. The problem is the loudest voices are usually the most angry. And the most angry are usually the most violent.

NO..maybe stronger and bigger than most other nationalities , with few exceptions. I believe violence is caused more by outside factors than genetics. Most violent people live or originate from hostile, non-tolerant, poor and hot countries. Over time this environmental influence transmits into the genes. America is a rich and comfortable country, people are not as violent as people in countries in Africa and Latin America are, where murder and other violent crimes are the highest per capita.

I'm American, I'm not violent and I don't personally know any violent Americans.
Is that question an expression of your personal antiwar sentiment? Tisk tisk. Stay rational.

No, just quit the Anti-American bs! Are you even an American or living in America? Have you ever even set foot on American soil?

No... I think I don't think anyone is naturally violent regardless of race or ethnicity.

Not naturally. It's a learned behavior.
