51% of Murder and nonnegligent manslaughter is committed by about 7% of the US population. This is directly from Government data.
There are real biological factors identified for this discrepancy:

- whimsicalism 5y agoThe obvious factor behind this discrepancy is the distribution of resources in the real world, as well as the fact that organized violent drug crime is mostly operated out of black communities (again: poverty). This allele you've identified as the genetic reason for white superiority is most common among Asian men.
- tristor 5y agoI think you are overstating your case, and I question the motivations for doing so. The vast majority of people with either the 2R or 3R allele have not committed any criminal acts, and in fact the 3R allele is heavily associated to the type of risk taking behavior that is often rewarded in society. There may be a correlation between those who end up committing criminal acts and their gene expression, but it alone is not a causative factor and it's completely unsupported by evidence to make such a claim. Stronger causative factors are environmental, such as poverty, which has a direct causative relationship with criminal behavior.
