Not gonna lie, I'm just sitting here lurking but I'm getting creeped out with the analogy of a group's perceived genetic aggressiveness with the breeding of dogs. Very, very creepy and demeaning if I'm going to be quite honest.
It's an analogy I haven't made.
It's a simple question: are behavioral traits heritable? If traits show up in differing environments with the same breed of dog, is it fair to say it is at least possible that the trait is inherent in the breed of the dog, and cannot be credibly reduced solely to the environment? If the answer to this question is "yes," then the next question is: are human behavioral traits possibly heritable?
If the answer to that question is "yes," then we may ask: ought noticing, and even stating, that some human behavioral traits may possibly be heritable be considered reprehensible, censurable, or punishable, and if so, why?
And if not, most of the loudest here seem to have some explaining to do.
