Kinda weird. Its says in the first paragraph that its a Dutch gene. Arent Dutch people white?
"We have identified a large Dutch kindred with a new form of X-linked nondysmorphic mild mental retardation. All affected males in this family show very characteristic abnormal behavior, in particular aggressive and sometimes violent behavior. Other types of impulsive behavior include arson, attempted rape, and exhibitionism. Attempted suicide has been reported in a single case. The locus for this disorder could be assigned to the Xpll-21 interval between DXS7 and DXS77 by linkage analysis using markers spanning the X chromosome. A maximal multipoint lod score of 3.69 was obtained at the monoamine oxidase type A (MAOA) locus in Xpll.23-11.4. Results of 24-h urine analysis in three affected males indicated a marked disturbance of monoamine metabolism. These data are compatible with a primary defect in the structural gene for MAOA and/or monoamine oxidase type B (MAOB). Normal platelet MAOB activity suggests that the unusual behavior pattern in this family may be caused by isolated MAOA deficiency."
analyses revealed that African-American males who carried the 2-repeat allele were, in comparison with other African-American male genotypes, significantly more likely to be arrested and incarcerated. Additional analyses revealed that African-American male carriers of the 2-repeat allele scored significantly higher on an antisocial phenotype index and on measures assessing involvement in violent behaviors over the life course.
That's why I included the entire study link
So youre saying a white gene in some American Blacks makes them more violent than Blacks that dont have that white gene. Interesting but I'm not surprised. White people are naturally incredibly violent. I figured it must be a genetic trait they have infected other races with.
Actually, the study he posted had NO racial statistics in it at all.. But the article he pulled from Bigot Science DID refer to other studies on this gene complex.. And in it -- the prevalence in Blacks is 5.2% and the prevalence in whites in 0.1%.... So it's NOT a "white gene".. At those rates it could be a mutation from LONG ago...
Don't think ANYBODY is understanding the science here and the fixation is on the racial spin.. I'm sure there's an explanation, but I don't have it.. My neuro-science daughter is home today. She's really familiar with genetics and attributes of gene complexes..I might ask her...
But at those rates -- it's NOT a black or white thing... If it was HEREDITARILY DUTCH -- the prevalence in the whites would be FAR HIGHER than 0.1%.....
