behaviour was exceptional at all.
What I said, and I thought it was quite clear, was that America is no
stranger to barbaric acts during its formative years.
The bit about genetics, my girlfriend and her temper was meant as humor.

No you were not, but you were implying that the US was exceptional, and
its
behavior was excessive.
No it is by no means genetic. Its more cultural and environmental.
Please
don't try a genetic or socio-biological argument with me, I think I may
know
a bit more about the field than you. There is no current reliable
scientific
data that suggests that violent behavior is genetically based, or if
there
is, then it only accounts for a very small proportion of the explained
variance.
