Question since I'm interested. Do you think that black and white people have different genetics? To me it seems the answer to that question is clear, since black and white people look different.

Now a much more controversial - certainly very controversial - question. Possibly the most controversial question about race that there is.

Do you think it is *possible* that different rates of crime between blacks and whites in the US are rooted in genetics? Scientists have found, after all, genes that are associated with higher crime levels (this was not a study to do with race whatsoever - they were just looking at criminals and non-criminals). Pic related, and here's the source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-29760212

If one is to accept that:
>a) the races have different genetics
>b) genetics can cause elevated crime levels
Then surely it is *possible* that the differences in crime levels between black and white Americans could be - IN PART - due to genetics. Or does this seem implausible?
